Community Support New York

Welcome to Coaches & Coffee – Fort Lee

## Welcome to Coaches & Coffee – Fort Lee **Great coaches don't grow alone.** Whether you're an experienced coach, newly certified, or transitioning into the coaching profession, this is a welcoming space to connect with fellow coaches who understand both the rewards and challenges of this work. Our gatherings are intentionally casual, supportive, and conversation-driven. There are no presentations, no sales pitches, and no pressure to have all the answers. Just authentic conversations over coffee with coaches who are committed to growing personally and professionally. ### What to Expect Every other Saturday, we'll meet for about an hour to: * Connect with fellow coaches in the local community. * Share ideas, experiences, and lessons learned. * Discuss meaningful coaching topics and real-world challenges. * Celebrate wins and support one another through the journey of building a coaching practice. * Build genuine relationships in a relaxed, judgment-free environment. Whether you're looking for fresh perspectives, encouragement, accountability, or simply a community that understands your journey, you'll find a seat at our table. ### What to Bring * Your favorite coffee or beverage ☕ * Curiosity * An open mind * A willingness to learn and share * Business cards are optional—authentic conversation comes first. ### Finding the Group We'll meet at a local coffee shop in **Fort Lee, NJ**. The exact location will be posted before each event.

**\*THIS EVENT IS FOR ESTABLISHED MEMBERS ONLY. YOU MUST HAVE ATTENDED A FIRST-TIMERS MEETING PRIOR TO SIGNING UP FOR THIS GROUP.\*** Welcome to the women's and those who are non-binary Narcissistic Abuse Support Group. This meeting is for ESTABLISHED MEMBERS, focusing specifically on Women's issues and any other topic while promoting openness, sisterhood, and empowerment. It is a safe, cozy space for those who identify as female or non-binary to share more intimately about having survived any kind of abusive relationship with a narcissist - romanic, platonic, familial, etc - or are currently in one and in need of support. The cycle of abuse from the love-bombing to the trauma bond to the devaluation to the discard is never-ending and makes you feel alone.

Community Day At My Little Magic Shop

Helping the homeless to get off the streets this winter

Hello all, https://bowery.volunteerhub.com/vv2/ I was extremely saddened by this weekend's brutal killing of 4 homeless people in lower manhattan. I have contacted the Bowery mission to help and see what we can do as a community to provide food and shelter for the homeless. This is an endless effort. I encourage you all to helpout whenever, and whatever you have to get them off the streets, and to clean up the shelter and talk to the government to get programs incentives to allow landlords to use up their vacant space, even if its a few months for the winter. Many of you do not know that homeless people choose to be outside, because they don't feel safe in shelters. Or because of their illness that they do not want contact with people or helping themselves. Bowery mission helps manhattan folks - with shelter/ food/ clothing. Please help 1 at a time. IF you have other resourses to share or events to share, Please POST! Thanks all. Lisa, Thank you for reaching out. We were also stunned and heartbroken by this horrific attack. I truly admire the work that you do—I think the events of this weekend present a call for all of NYC’s nonprofits that deal with homelessness and its tangential issues to work together and form a unified front, so I am grateful for your interest and passion. I encourage you to check out our volunteer site and please reach out with any questions or if this is not what you are looking for. If you are looking for something more specific, I’m happy to jump on a call. Let me know what makes the most sense. Thank you—hope you had a nice weekend.
