What we’re about
A community for adults who want real connection — through conversation, shared experiences, presence, and play.
We gather in simple, meaningful ways to slow down, connect with ourselves and each other, and build friendships that feel grounded, warm, and real.
Why This Community Exists
Most people are craving meaningful connection — the kind that feels grounding, nourishing, and real. We live in a world that moves fast, asks a lot, and rarely gives us space to land in our bodies or be met as we are.
The Human Collective was created as an antidote to that.
A space where your nervous system can exhale.
A space where humans gather to explore, experience, and build friendships that feel warm, steady, and safe.
A space for curiosity, presence, real conversations, and shared moments that strengthen the heart.
What We Do Here
Here’s what you can look forward to inside the community:
Monthly Community Fireside Chat (our monthly heartbeat)
Once a month, we gather online for a gentle fireside-style session where I share what’s alive or meaningful in the moment — safety, presence, emotions, relationships, embodiment. Some months I teach, some we practice, some we reflect. The intention is simple: slow down, feel safe, and connect.
Embodied Presence & Nervous System Support
Experiences that invite you back into your body and into presence — with breathwork, grounding, co-regulation, gentle movement, rest, and moments of play. Each practice supports your nervous system and strengthens your capacity to meet life with steadiness and ease.
Nature-Focused Gatherings
Forest bathing, mindful walks, sensory presence, and grounding practices that help us slow down and reconnect with the natural world. These gatherings offer gentle nourishment for the nervous system and a soft place to land in community.
Heart Skills for Being Human Together
Exploring the relational skills that help us feel safe and connected with others — communication, boundaries, presence, attunement, authentic relating, and the quiet art of being with each other in real ways.
Body Wisdom & Nourishment
Exploring the ways we can nourish our bodies — through herbal remedies, food-as-medicine, sensory practices, and simple rituals that support vitality, grounding, and well-being.
Some events are free. Some are paid. All are crafted with intention, warmth, and care.
Who This Is For
You’ll feel at home here if you’re someone who:
- craves ongoing connection (not just one-off meetups)
- values emotional safety + personal responsibility
- loves learning, nature, embodiment, and deep conversations
- wants friendships that feel grounded and nourishing
- enjoys a mix of experiential + educational gatherings
What to Expect
When you join, you’ll step into a warm, low-pressure community where connection unfolds naturally.
You can expect:
- A monthly Fireside Chat online (our community heartbeat)
- A mix of in-person + online gatherings throughout the month
- A welcoming WhatsApp space for conversation, presence, and gentle check-ins
- Opportunities to learn, share, reflect, or simply listen — always at your pace
You won’t find overwhelm, pressure to perform, or endless notifications — just real humans exploring connection, presence, and well-being together.
Our Ethos
The Human Collective rests on five simple principles:
1. Safe to be yourself
Come as you are. No masks. No performance.
2. Self-responsibility
We honor our bodies, boundaries, needs, and nervous systems — without blame or projection.
3. Respect for diversity
We welcome differences in backgrounds, identities, and perspectives.
4. Belonging
Everyone has value here. Everyone has a place.
5. Collaboration over competition
We lift each other, celebrate each other, and co-create from abundance.
The Human Collective isn’t just a list of events — it’s a place to belong, learn, and grow alongside others who care about being human with intention. If that resonates, you’re welcome here.
Join us. Take a breath. Come be part of it.

Forest Bathing: A Guided Journey into Presence & Nature
Wolf Lake Park, 5400 SW 76th Ave., Davie, FL, USPermission to take a slow morning to return to yourself.
Forest bathing is an invitation to pause the pace of everyday life and step into a different rhythm — one shaped by trees, wind, light, and breath. In this guided experience, we’ll move gently, notice deeply, and let nature help our bodies settle into presence.
Nothing to achieve. Nowhere to hurry. Just space to be, sense, and reconnect.
What to Expect
We’ll begin by arriving together — slowing the breath, softening the pace, and letting the noise of the week fall away. From there, we’ll wander through the park with intention, moving slowly, noticing the quiet details we usually miss.
Throughout our time, you’ll receive gentle invitations designed to deepen presence: sensing, listening, touching, pausing. Nothing forced. Nothing to perform. Just simple practices that open the door to feeling more connected — to nature, to your body, and to yourself.
We’ll close with an intimate sharing circle and a warm cup of tea –– always invitational, never pressured.
You’ll leave feeling more spacious inside, steady on the outside, and nourished by the morning.
