Sip n’ Share
In our sip n’ share book circle we co-create an informal space that welcomes each of us to show up, as we are, in that moment.
There’s no hidden agenda, no judgement and no rush.
Simply connection over a book.
I host these gatherings in a Thinking Environment. No previous experience is required, just a promise to listen to each other, with interest, and without interrupting.
“We may not always finish the book but we can count on being able to finish our sentence...”
