When life and work start to feel hectic, it can be hard to slow down and truly listen to what we need. Our next Chill Sessions gathering offers a gentle moment to reconnect with yourself through rest, reflection, and conversation.

Rest & Self-Care: Listening & Responding to Our Natural Rhythms

Join Sarah Haykel – multidisciplinary artist and co-creator of Salsa for the Soul, part of Love Is Real LLC – for an intimate discussion on tuning into your natural rhythms and moving toward a more sustainable, grounded way of being.

Sarah will share insights from her personal journey, including how she learned to trust her inner guidance, break cycles of burnout, and build a creative life rooted in balance. Participants will be invited to reflect on their own practices and walk away with simple tools for mindful self-care.

And since the colder months call for something warm, this session features a cozy hot cocoa bar to enjoy as you settle in.
