Our events have been featured on CNN, CBS, Axios, Miami New Times, TLC's 90 Day Fiance - The Single Life, Tampa Bay Times, Southbend Times, Citylink Magazine, Essence, The Wall Street Journal, Best of Baltimore, AM New York, Chicago Tribune, WINK FM, Woman's World Magazine, and 100s more -- but come see for yourself! Join us for a night of fun, flirtation, and possible romance at our singles speed dating event! If you're tired of swiping left and right on dating apps, speed dating is a great way to meet new people in person, in a relaxed, safe, and comfortable environment. **HOW IT WORKS:** We'll introduce you to at least 5, and up to 12 - or more - single women or men. Spend a little time with each one, during a series of 6-minute Pre-Dates. Then tell us who you'd like to speak with again & we'll do the rest! It's the modern, civilized, effective, and fun way to meet other professional-level singles. If you're finished with the games and ineffectiveness of online dating and apps, join us to share a wonderful evening of enjoyable conversation with interesting people... and maybe something magical will happen! **GET TICKETS:** A **Meetup RSVP is not a ticket**, you must purchase on our website.

According to the New York Times, at a speed dating event, people like 2-3 out of 10 people they meet. Online daters only match with 1 in 100 or fewer of the profiles they study. This is the best way to meet new people, and it works! Just ask the thousands of people that have met at our events and had successful relationships and marriages. **WHAT DOES IT COST?** We put a lot of time and effort into creating the best singles events possible, so we collect a fee for our hard work. Our events are an excellent value at about $3 per introduction. Get your ticket for the best singles event in town. **NOTE FOR NEWCOMERS:** We post our events on various platforms. Our events often sell out, so expect plenty of fellow singles, regardless of the numbers you see here :) So what are you waiting for?

• What we'll do On https://blackecon101.podbean.com/ Thursdays at 6 pm. discussing the economy....

Happy hour at The Saloon on U Street. Come and go as your schedule allows.

What Happened to the Energy Transition? To land a ship on a moving target, the moon, for example, from a moving object, the earth, requires an enormous attention to facts and a mastery of detail. Getting any of these wrong can lead to disaster. Climate science tells us we must transition to a zero carbon society—and fast. But are climate-deniers the only obstacle to that transition? We will discuss the work of economic historian Jean-Baptise Fressoz who suggests that even as we move to solar panels and electric vehicles, rather than “transitioning” to a zero carbon world we will continue to consume more, and more, and more and produce more carbon dioxide. Is there a way out of here? As harrowing as it sounds, its best to pay attention to the facts and master the details so we can discuss real solutions. Perhaps, a solution that depends on a transition in our ethical thinking. In-person and available on Zoom When: Sunday, April 12, 2026 Coffee available at 10:45 AM, Speaker begins at 11:00 AM Where: Green Hedges School 415 Windover Ave NW, Vienna, VA It's more fun in person (and the coffee is free), but you can participate by Zoom at [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83422695892](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83422695892) Jim Ball and his family are longtime members of Ethical Culture.

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.**
