Bring your task. Grab your favorite beverage. Settle into a **focused, supportive space where meaningful work happens**. You’ll co-work alongside **fellow creative changemakers** committed to turning ideas, passions, and next chapters into reality....**in community**. ### **How This Works** We follow a **gentle, structured rhythm** to support **focus, momentum, and your nervous system**. **Opening (15 minutes)** A grounding meditation to help you settle and focus (5 minutes), followed by a brief check-in: your name, what you’re celebrating, and what you’ll work on today (10 minutes). **Focused Co-Working (2 hours)** Four work blocks: 30 minutes of focused work + 5-minute breaks to stretch, refill coffee, or reset. Cameras on or off....your choice. **Closing Circle (30 minutes)** Share wins, insights, or breakthroughs. Exchange inspiration, tips, or offerings. Leave feeling **clear, connected, and accomplished**! We wrap at **1:00 PM EST**. ### **You Deserve This** No more waiting for the “right” time. No more putting your dreams on the back burner. No more letting another year pass without honoring what’s calling you. This is your space to let your **authentic, unlived self step forward** — with **support, structure, and safety**. ### **Who This Is For** This space is for you if you’re: • Working on a book, blog, art, workshop, or any other creative project • Launching a new (or first!) business, podcast, social media or offering • Exploring a career pivot or dream opportunity • Seeking protected time to focus, reflect, or reconnect with yourself • A professional balancing a full life and still wanting more You don’t need to be a “full-time creative.” You don’t need everything figured out. If you’re **excited about your idea** and ready to give it real space, this is for you....especially if you’ve always felt **there’s more in you**, and you’re ready to honor it. ## **About Your Host** Hi, I’m **Nandi Edwards**, founder of **Nandi Nature Coaching**. Before launching my business, I spent over **10 years as a government strategist**, helping teams, professionals and leaders turn their social ideas into real-world impact. I also know firsthand what it’s like to bring a vision to life while holding a full-time 9-to-5. I know the doubts, the fears, and the *“who am I to do this?”* moments that surface when you’re trying to create something new. Today, I support professionals, like you, to move off the sidelines and contribute something meaningful to the world

📚 Do you love reading, but wish you had a structure and a community to share your insights with? Join our small circle of curious minds (just 4 members per gathering) as we come together for an hour of focused reading—in the calm setting of a library or the cozy atmosphere of a café. Here’s how it works: First part: Quiet reading on your own—bring a book you’re exploring, whether it’s philosophy, history, psychology, literature, or anything meaningful to you. Second part: We regroup and each person shares key takeaways, insights, or questions sparked by their reading. This sparks a structured yet free-flowing conversation around ideas, perspectives, and personal reflections. Why join? Add structure to your reading habit. Discover new books, authors, and ideas through others’ choices. Build real connections by sharing and listening deeply. Socialize around something meaningful instead of small talk.

Expect a fun afternoon of drawing and socializing with like-minded artists! Although each Session is 3 hours, feel free to drop in as your schedule permits. This is a casual gathering, and we know that people might only be able to stay a little while -- drop in, and stay, as long as you are having fun, and as your day allows. **Note: about RSVP's, please respect the RSVP process. If you RSVP YES, you are commited and we are all looking to seeing you. If your plans change however, that's OK, but please be courteous and change your RSVP to NO. We are reaching the headcount limit regularly now and it is rude to take a spot and not relinquish it if your plans change... Respect others; don't be rude. Thank you for your cooperation**. All skill levels are welcome -- this is not a competition. This Group and all its Events are intended to be in equal parts, Drawing/Art AND Socializing. As such, conversation is expected and encouraged. ***However, in all cases, please refrain from discussion of Political topics.*** Our goal is enjoyment, in the form of drawing together while socializing, and political conversation is too polarizing for that to happen. We are looking forward to seeing you there! **Note (in parting): Be aware, and keep in mind that our group, meeting as it does at Starbucks, depends on this business's generosity for the space it allows us. As such, please make a point of purchasing something from the business to express our appreciation as a group using their facility. If you are experiencing hardship and can't afford a modest purchase, get my attention discreetly, and arrangements will be made with no judgment whatsoever. Thank you for your understanding... Michael (your host)**

Remember the new start time: We've moved the clock up! We now meet at 10:00 AM and roll at 10:10 AM. Meeting Spot: With Freedom Plaza still closed for renovation, we are meeting at the entrance to Pershing Park (World War I Memorial) at the corner of Pennsylvania Ave & 14th St NW. Join us Sunday as Brent leads us through his master route creation! Starting at Freedom Plaza, this 12-mile loop begins with a smooth eastward glide through the city along D Street, where the urban grid sets a steady rhythm before transitioning onto the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail. Once we hit the trail, we can really start to up the tempo, enjoying the open pavement all the way to the Anacostia Skating Pavilion. We’ll hang out there for a few minutes to work on some drills or just catch our breath before the most intense leg of the trip. From the pavilion, we hit the Anacostia Riverwalk Dash, where everyone can go full bore and push the pace to the limit until we reach the base of the bridge; heart rates should be maxing out here. The downhill off the South Capitol Street Bridge lets us coast right past Audi Field, where the vibes are much higher than usual lately, as DC United has been putting together a solid string of results to open the season. That good hometown momentum will carry us north through our last few miles as we venture through the Southwest Waterfront neighborhood. The journey reaches its final act as we dive into the 12th Street Tunnel, which offers a cool, cinematic finish that leads us right back into the heart of the District and to the finish line. The route: https://www.komoot.com/tour/1886701986?share_token=a9l1XJQ6VrzZ2t08egmvG8q4PEBUop4hv7oL80CJr79VkECpX1&ref=wtd You don't want to miss this one, it hits quite a few [#WAR](https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/war?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZaHwGaXEfxyKJW1GGfny--49gi0c8dQLQ5jQ0OjRPTMOxFsTOnqV2uzb2Tibv20UoyJfDFGBA-UVCrtYCtCJ7I82RvPxBhAMIh1IvNLileJUQ&__tn__=q) favorites!
