Connection Matters: Pandemic Recovery for Women – March 14, 2023

Our first event was hosted on Tuesday, March 14 at Bubolz Nature Preserve featuring a live podcast recording of the Real Vibes Only Podcast. With hosts Karen Iverson Riggers and Lynn McLaughlin, guests were guided through a conversation on dealing with grief when it came to the global pandemic that upended all of our lives three years ago and how we are still feeling the reverberations today. Guests shared raw and vulnerable experiences that they never thought they would face—in an authentic safe space.

Photos from the event can be found here.
