Sit & Share: Let’s Chat About Shifting Your Relationship With Money

Let’s gather in the park for an afternoon of connection, curiosity, and honest conversation.

This month’s Sit & Share is about leaning into financial alignment and how we can shift our relationship with money.

We’ll weave together a grounding exercise, meaningful conversation, shared reflection – and a touch of fun – in a relaxed, supportive space. No pressure. No small talk. Just the joy of sitting together, asking the questions, and seeing what unfolds.

What to Expect

We’ll begin with a brief grounding exercise, then explore thought-provoking prompts and short exercises in rotating small-group conversations. We'll have about four prompts, each about 15 minutes long.

Prompts may include:

• Your current feelings and relationship toward money (i.e., joy, dread, avoidance, abundance, scarcity)
• Journaling and exercises that can help you glean insights about your money story.
• What you'd like to change and carry forward

You’ll get to connect with several different groups throughout the afternoon, then gather as one circle to share insights and close together.

What to Bring

• Blanket, cushion, and/or chair
• Water bottle
• Wig, fun hat or accessory for a bit of flair (optional)
• Hat and/or sunglasses (recommended)
• Journal & pen/pencil (optional)
• Food and/or beverages (optional, some snacks and drinks will be provided)
