Five months ago, I started a Flourish discussion group with a few women and a deck of conversation cards.
We met in a stuffy clubhouse. Sat around a conference table. Everyone was polite. Guarded. It felt like a board meeting, not a gathering of souls.
So we moved to members' living rooms. And everything changed.
Now we have a core group who won't miss a meeting.
Women referring friends.
Real conversations are happening, the kind where someone shares something hard, and everyone else exhales because they feel it too.
This was the reason I designed Flourish Conversation Cards, and why I'm starting Flourish groups.
Do you want to start one too?
