Founding Hearth

The Hearth & Kin Collective — Founding Gathering
We’re starting a small women’s collective called The Hearth & Kin Collective, inspired by the idea of a lifelong support circle.

The goal is to create a close-knit group of about 9–12 women who want deeper friendships, meaningful conversations, and a supportive community that grows over time.

This first gathering will be our Founding Hearth — a chance for us to meet, talk, and see if this collective feels like the right fit for everyone involved.

What to Expect
Our time together will include:
• introductions and getting to know one another

• a short reflection exercise - "What kind of women do I want walking beside me through life?"

• open conversation about the kind of friendships and community we want to build

• discussion of how the collective will work going forward

You don’t need to prepare anything — just come as you are.

The Structure of the Collective
The collective will include:

The Hearth
A monthly gathering where the whole group meets to reflect, journal, and talk about life.

Kin Groups
Smaller groups of 3–5 women who stay in closer contact between gatherings for support and connection.

The Kind of Community We’re Building
This space is for women who value:
• authentic friendships
• thoughtful conversations
• personal growth
• long-term connection
It’s not a networking group or professional organization — it’s about building a genuine community.

Beliefs
The Hearth & Kin Collective is a non-religious space. Women of all belief systems are welcome, but the group itself will not center religious practices or teachings.

Who This Is For
Women who are interested in:
• building meaningful friendships
• participating in regular gatherings
• being part of a supportive, intentional community

Because the collective will remain small, this first meeting will help us see who feels aligned with the vision of the group.

If this idea resonates with you, we’d love to meet you at the first Hearth.

Space will be limited as we work toward forming a small, consistent circle.
