About us
Life obstacles change us — shifting identities, moves across borders, evolving relationships. These moments often bring both challenge and possibility.
This group is for people who want to explore growth: not restoring what once was, but growing into what comes next. We believe that relationships — with ourselves, with others, and with our communities — are the soil where growth takes root.
What we’ll do:
Meetups that spark meaningful conversations about change, courage, and connection
Guided reflections and prompts to support personal growth
Community discussions on navigating transitions about relationships
Opportunities to share stories, resources, and encouragement
This group is for anyone curious about how to turn life changes into opportunities for growth, authenticity, and stronger relationships.
You don’t have to go through growth alone. Come join us to connect, reflect, and thrive — together. You'll find your new tribe.

Feeling “Off” in a Work or Personal Relationship? (Complimentary 1 to 1 event)
·OnlineOnlineFeeling “Off” in a Work or Personal Relationship? (Complimentary 1 to 1 Session)
Description:
Sometimes nothing is “wrong” — but something feels off.
Maybe:*Your idea gets ignored, then repeated by someone else
- You hesitate to speak up, even when you know you should
*You adjust yourself to keep the relationship smooth — and lose your footing - You walk away thinking: why didn’t I say what I meant?
If you recognize this, you’re not alone — and it’s not just about communication skills.
I’m offering a small number of complimentary 20-minute 1 to 1 sessions to look at one real situation you’re navigating.
Together, I’ll help you:*share a current situation
- encourage your own insights
*share what you would like as a result - consider how to bridge now and future
For professionals navigating work, dating, or cross-cultural environments.
This is a non-intimidating way of trying coaching for a problem you have. There is no obligation for the session, but of course, if it encourages you to go to more of my events then that is good for both of us.
Thanks for signing up for a discovery call. I've learned that it is better to get some preliminary information before the zoom since it is only 20 minutes. It is short and easy. Please submit it as soon as possible. Here is the link: https://tally.so/r/lbKaWk

When the Relationship at Work Starts to Feel Off
·OnlineOnlineA Reflective Coffee Hour on Managers, Employees, and Workplace Dynamics
Sometimes workplace tension is not just about communication skills or productivity.
You may notice:- pulling back in meetings
- over-explaining yourself
- feeling overlooked or undervalued
- hesitation to speak honestly
- pressure to adapt to keep the peace
- a manager becoming distant or controlling
- stress spreading through the team
- or leaving interactions wondering, “What just happened there?”
This reflective online coffee hour explores the relationship dynamics that can develop between managers and employees under pressure.
Together we will discuss different workplace scenarios and reflect on:- authority and trust
- psychological safety
- silence and withdrawal
- workplace pressure
- idea absorption and acknowledgment
- delayed reactions
- belonging vs. self-protection
- and how to stay connected professionally without losing your sense of self
This is not therapy or a complaint session.
You are welcome to speak, reflect quietly, or simply listen.
A thoughtful space for professionals navigating workplace relationships with greater awareness and clarity.You’re welcome to book a complimentary 20-minute 1 to 1 discovery call in my Meetup groups. If you don't see a slot available just contact me at barbara@DrBarbaraforSuccess.com
