The Recharge: Fill Up Sis
This is a VIRTUAL FREE event every week. To get access details please [click here](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-recharge-fill-up-sis-tickets-1984961497272?aff=oddtdtcreator)
If you’ve been pouring into everyone else and quietly running on empty… this space was created for you.
There comes a moment in a woman’s life when she realizes she has been pouring into everyone and everything else… while quietly running on empty.
The responsibilities.
The expectations.
The emotional labor.
And somewhere in the middle of holding it all together, she forgets what it feels like to be **fully supported, fully resourced, and fully seen**.
**The Recharge: Fill Up Sis** is **a sacred weekly virtual meetup** created for women who are ready to pause, recalibrate their energy, and reconnect with themselves in powerful community.
This is not a motivational talk.
This is not surface-level inspiration.
This is a room where women gather to **release what they’ve been carrying, restore their energy, and remember the power of being in [intentional sisterhood](https://thewombsauna.com/wcoe "https://thewombsauna.com/wcoe").**
## What Happens in The Recharge?
Each session is a guided experience where women come together to:
* **Release** stress, emotional weight, and the pressure of carrying everything alone
* **Restore** their energy through meaningful conversation, reflection, and grounding practices
* **Rise** into clarity about what their next level of life and leadership requires
* **Radiate** with renewed confidence, alignment, and direction
This space allows you to experience the tone, leadership, and sisterhood that define the deeper work we do together.
## The Integration Lab: Where Knowledge Becomes Embodiment
Many women spend years gathering wisdom.
Books. Podcasts. Workshops. Spiritual insight. Therapy. Coaching.
At a certain point, the question is no longer:
**“What else do I need to learn?”**
The real question becomes:
**“Where am I actually practicing the life I say I want?”**
The **Integration Lab** is the weekly coaching and practice space inside our **[1-Year Self Development Program](thewombsauna.com/programs)**.
It is where women stop circulating knowledge and begin **embodying it**.
Inside the Lab, we work in real time with the patterns, decisions, emotions, and relationships shaping your life right now.
Awareness becomes action.
Insight becomes discipline.
And personal growth becomes a lived lifestyle.
Women gather weekly to:
* apply what they know to real-life challenges
* strengthen emotional regulation and self-leadership
* practice accountability in sacred sisterhood
* build the consistency required to live differently
This is not a space for passive listening.
It is a space for **active personal development and sacred community life.**
## Who This Space Is For?
This gathering is for women who:
* are tired of carrying everything alone
* know they are capable of more but feel stretched thin
* value personal development and emotional growth
* desire a circle of women who are serious about their evolution
* are exploring whether they are ready to invest in a **year of intentional growth**
Many women who attend **The Recharge** are preparing themselves to decide whether they are ready to step into the deeper commitment of the **[1-Year Self Development Program](https://thewombsauna.com/programs "https://thewombsauna.com/programs")**.
## What You Should Know
This experience is **free**, but it is intentional.
Women who attend are often exploring what it would look like to:
* prioritize their personal development
* practice emotional and spiritual growth consistently
* participate in a high-level community of women committed to living consciously
Come with curiosity.
Come with honesty.
Come with the willingness to pour back into yourself.
## Hosted By
## **[Thema Azize Serwa](https://thewombsauna.com/thema "https://thewombsauna.com/thema")**
Founder of **[The Womb Sauna](https://thewombsauna.com/ "https://thewombsauna.com")** and creator of transformational spaces where women gather to **release, restore, rise, and radiate**.
After overcoming eight years of infertility and PCOS, Thema devoted her life to helping women reconnect with their bodies, their emotional wisdom, and the sacred power of intentional community.
Through her work in womb wellness, self-development, and spiritual leadership, she has guided women around the world in creating lives that are rooted in clarity, healing, and self-mastery.
## Final Invitation
If you’ve been gathering insight for years but feel ready to start **living differently**, this space will resonate deeply.
Because transformation does not happen through inspiration alone.
It happens through **consistent practice, honest reflection, and community that supports your evolution.**
**Come recharge.**

Youth Raja Yoga Meditation Course on Zoom (Ages 13-18)
Throughout history, when the world has been called to change, youths have always stepped up to inspire and influence shifts. Equipped with natural open-mindedness, optimism, and realism, youths are the perfect catalysts for world transformation. Raja Yoga Meditation is a powerful resource and skill to enable them to prepare for this role.
Raja Yoga is an ancient form of meditation that empowers you to harness your potential by knowing your true self. It teaches you how to adapt to an ever-changing world while remaining authentic to your core positive beliefs. It builds immeasurable strength from within, allowing one to be unshakeable in the face of adverse situations. It brings clarity through sharpening one's power to discern.
While the world is in times of stress, we have power over our present experience and certainly what the future holds. Raja Yoga will show the path to inner peace & stability. Join us on Saturdays and Sundays at 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM starting on Saturday, April 4th – April 26th (8 Sessions).
Learn, grow, and have fun along the way!

Arthouse Friday: THE DRAMA at the Drexel Theatre!
Join us as we get together for an Arthouse Movie Friday event to see the A24 dark comedy /romance / psychological-thriller, THE DRAMA! The film stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson as a happily engaged couple whose relationship is challenged when one discovers unsettling truths about the other. Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event:
DESCRIPTION: The film follows a happily engaged couple whose relationship is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. The film comes from A24, is written/directed by Kristoffer Borgli stars Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Mamoudou Athie, Alana Haim, Hailey Gates and Zoë Winters.
ZENDAYA-PATTINSON TRIFECTA CHALLENGE: Robert Pattinson and Zendaya will star in THREE movies together this year, including THE DRAMA, Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY this Summer and Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE: PART THREE at Christmas!
TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk)
BUZZ & REVIEWS: Overall some solid early reviews but this one seems to be a bit polarizing! We’ll have to see for ourselves. Those in the “loved it” camp say is not the rom-com the trailers would have you to believe! Instead, a twisty darkly comedic drama that’s “anchored by two compelling performances,” “an original idea, great cast, and a movie that’s gonna have people talking at the end of it!”
PLAN: A slightly later showtime so we’ll go with dinner before the show this time. Here’s the plan: For dinner before the movie, meet at nearby BRASSICA between 5:45 and 6:00pm. Go through the line, and we’ll try to snag as many of the high-top tables as we can. For the movie, please purchase your ticket for the 7:30pm showing and we’ll meet in the lobby area between 7:00 and 7:15pm. I’ll be with the dinner group and will try to get there as close to 7pm as possible. Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater. When you purchase yours at counter, be sure to mention you’re with the Movie Group for admission and concession discounts.
Take care and look forward to seeing you there, Dan
Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games!
The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
Confidence & Connection: Using Your Authentic Truth to Find Your People
**Confidence & Connection: Using Your Authentic Truth to Find Your People**
Confidence isn’t just about believing in yourself, it’s about knowing where you belong and who you can grow alongside.
In this April Confidence Lab Happy Hour, we’ll explore how living in your authentic truth helps you find your people, build meaningful collaborations, and create spaces where vulnerability is met with respect rather than risk. Together, we’ll reflect on what it looks like to advocate for yourself with clarity and care, and how confidence deepens when it’s rooted in connection rather than comparison.
Featured speaker **Lachandra Baker**, founder of **[LBB Edutainment](https://www.lbbedutainment.com/)** and author of *Your Own Biggest Cheerleader*, will share reflections on authenticity, psychological safety, and the power of community over individual achievement. Drawing from personal stories—including the significance of turning 53—Lachandra will invite us into a conversation about showing up fully, being seen, and choosing relationships that support who you truly are.
Expect a warm, welcoming atmosphere with space for reflection, shared insight, and intentional connection—plus drinks, light bites, and the kind of conversations that remind you you’re not meant to do this alone.
Come as you are. Leave feeling clearer about your voice, your people, and the confidence that grows when both are aligned.
**What is Confidence Lab?**
Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here.
Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work.
It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact.
***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*
