What is a mentoring circle?

An intentional community for everyone to BE your authentic self & connect, thrive, and grow.

MEANT 2 BE CREATIVE | Friday’s at 1 PM, EST

Are you creative and want to express yourself in a safe & brave space? Our mentoring circle will create art, poetry, etc. & share our reflections about our journey forward.

Areas of focus:

  • Developing a creative practice

  • Getting unstuck (overwhelm, underwhelm, complacency)

  • Self-awareness, reflection & curiosity

  • Anxiety, depression, fatigue, shutdown

  • Stress management

  • Life transitions & grief

Meant 2 BEcome | Sunday’s at 6 PM, EST

This mentoring circle is an outlet for healing and creative expression. How do we want to navigate life after foster care? Meant 2 BEcome is a channel to express yourself freely without judgment in a setting with peers who can relate to your experience. Join us!

Belong | Believe | Be creative | Become

As long as there is a willing group of people who share a common goal or pursuit – you have a mentoring circle. Our mentoring circle connects us as a community of alumni- We seek opportunities to grow, heal, and connect with purpose. We focus on self-care, lifting each other up & providing a safe space where we can be authentic.

Circle format: 1) Check-in, 2) Question 31, 3)Creative Expression/Activity, 4) Question #2, & 5) Check-out
