A calm, low-key space to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself alongside others who understand. The **Queen’s Rise Circle Survivor Check-In** is a gentle, bi-weekly gathering created for women healing from narcissistic, emotionally harmful, or difficult relationships. This is not therapy or a formal workshop. It is a supportive community space where survivors can come exactly as they are. Some weeks you may want to share. Other weeks you may simply listen. Both are welcome here. Together, we focus on small steps forward, emotional grounding, and rebuilding confidence in a safe and respectful environment. This space is survivor-led and trauma-aware, grounded in empathy, respect, and confidentiality. ### Who this is for This check-in is suitable for anyone who: • Is healing after a narcissistic or toxic relationship • Feels emotionally overwhelmed or isolated • Wants connection without pressure or judgement • Is looking for consistent, gentle support between workshops or coaching You do **not** need to be at a particular stage of healing to attend. ### What this space is not • Not group therapy or crisis support • Not a place for advice-giving or fixing others • Not a space for confrontation or debate It is simply a supportive circle for reflection, encouragement, and community. ### What to bring Just yourself. Tea, notebooks, and comfortable energy encouraged. There is no requirement to share if you are not ready. You are welcome to listen, reflect, and simply be present. This is not therapy, but a peer-support space rooted in compassion, safety, and respect. Come as you are. Cameras optional. You are not behind, broken, or failing. You are healing. ***

Please book your ticket in advance: https://www.whitebeartheatre.co.uk/whatson/jeanne-d'arc%2C-say-something We’d love to see you there.

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
