What we’re about
❤️🩹 New Beginnings Relationship Support is a caring community for anyone going through a breakup or divorce—or simply looking to grow, heal, and build stronger relationships. Whether you're navigating grief, working through a major life transition, or wanting to show up more fully in your relationships, you’re welcome here.
🔷 We host weekly support meetings on Zoom every Wednesday evening from 7–9 pm (Pacific time). The first hour includes a video or short talk focused on personal growth, emotional healing, better communication, or understanding and managing the divorce process. The second hour is a confidential sharing circle, where participants are invited to have their cameras on to help create a safe, supportive environment. Meetings are $5 each or $17 per month to help cover the time and care we put into preparing meaningful content. There's no charge to join the Meetup group itself.
🔷 We also host weekly one-hour walks (rain or shine) for Divorced Dads in San Mateo, CA. These walks offer a relaxed, low-pressure way to connect with others who understand what you're going through, while getting a bit of fresh air, movement, and enjoying a beautiful view of Crystal Springs Reservoir. There is no charge for our weekly walks.
❤️ We’d love for you to join us! Please make sure to turn ON Meetup notifications so you can stay updated on all our gatherings and events.

Are you tired of repeating the same painful relationship patterns? Wondering why you’re drawn to the wrong people — or how to finally connect with the right ones? You're not alone, and there's a path forward.
Join our warm and supportive community for a 7-week video series* called “Safe People” — a thoughtful (and sometimes eye-opening!) look at how we build, choose, and nurture healthy relationships.
Each week, we’ll:
🎥 Watch 2 short videos from the Safe People series (14 short videos)
🗣️ Have space for discussion, reflection, and confidential sharing
💬 Support each other without judgment, no matter where you are on your journeyTopics we’ll explore include:
- What makes someone “safe” (or not) — and how to tell early on
- Why we sometimes choose people who hurt us
- How to break unhealthy patterns
- How to become a safe person ourselves
- And how to build strong, fulfilling relationships moving forward
