Explore meaningful themes through a blend of guided conversation, embodied reflection, and curated literature.
This event is part of The Unapologetic Circle series, a monthly gathering that’s facilitated by private transition coach Jenny Calcoen and designed for women in the middle of life who are navigating the profound transition from "performing" a role to living more truly as themselves.
For many high-impact women, midlife brings a quiet, fierce longing for authenticity that their established roles no longer satisfy. However, they often lack a private, safe space to acknowledge this internal shift without fear of public judgment or the pressure to "fix" themselves. The Unapologetic Circle is specifically designed to be a non-performative container. It is a sanctuary for women to set aside their titles and responsibilities, tell the truth about where they are, and meet what’s next with clarity and strength.
Each month, we’ll gather with a specific theme and corresponding book in mind. (Reading each month’s book is not required; the reflections will be accessible and relevant to everyone in the room.)
JUNE 09
Arrival is rarely a final destination; it is a deepening sense of internal Sovereignty. Using Melissa Febos's Girlhood as our touchstone, we examine the conditioning women carry long past adolescence and practice the quiet, radical act of choosing a self that was never chosen for you.
The Unapologetic Circle is a curated, intentional space held with care. Expect guided presence practices, reflections, and conversations.
This event will be hosted in our third-floor loft space, which is only accessible by stairs. Please plan to arrive at 3:45 p.m. so we all have time to settle in.
