Such a wonderful concept and even better facilitator. Go CJ!!!
From the Bottom of My Heart 🧡... Thank You.
As I sit here reflecting on our very first "Women Under the Willow", my heart is incredibly full.
What began as a simple dream to bring women together for an afternoon of connection, inspiration, and community became something so much more.
To every woman who attended... thank you.🙏
Thank you for spending your Saturday afternoon with us. Thank you for supporting our amazing Featured Makers. Thank you for sharing conversations, laughter, encouragement, and kindness. Your presence is what made this gathering so special.
Watching new friendships form over cups of herbal tea, seeing smiles during The Willow Walk, and hearing how Nikki Baxter's message of Jealousy, Judgment & Joy touched hearts reminded me exactly why this gathering was created.
To our Featured Makers, Nikki Baxter, The Velvet Hanger , and everyone who helped behind the scenes—thank you for believing in this vision and helping bring it to life.
We welcomed nearly 30 wonderful guests, enjoyed countless cups of tea, celebrated local businesses, and created an afternoon filled with warmth, authenticity, and genuine connection. I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful beginning.
Many of you shared how excited you are to see "Women Under the Willow" continue, and I have some exciting news...
This was only the beginning.
My hope is for Women Under the Willow to become a monthly gathering where women can continue to connect, learn, encourage one another, and celebrate this amazing community we've built together.
There are already new ideas blooming, and I can't wait to share what's next. Please make sure you are following Balanced by the Moon for details!!!
From the bottom of my heart... thank you for believing in this dream.
🌿 *There is always room for one more beneath the willow.*
With gratitude,
CJ
