Some forms of affection stay with us long after the moment is over.

A hand on your back. A check-in text. Someone reaching for you without thinking. The small ways people show us that we are wanted, remembered, and cared for.

This week, we are talking about how we give and receive affection, where those patterns come from, and what happens when the kind of care we need does not match the kind someone else naturally gives.

Let’s Talk Emotions!

We’d love to have you join us for our Ninth Emotional Fluency Series, a six-week journey through anticipation, impatience, anxiety, jealousy, wanderlust, and affection.

Together, we’ll explore the emotions that pull us toward the future, make waiting difficult, stir up fear and comparison, call us somewhere new, and shape the ways we give and receive care. Not to judge or fix what comes up, but to better understand what these feelings may be trying to tell us.

We’ll meet once a week for an hour across six weeks. Please join only if you can commit to at least half of the series. These sessions are powerful because of the trust we build over time, and showing up matters.

Seats are limited and tend to go quickly, so reserve yours while you can.

We are all just walking each other home.

-Ram Dass, Be Here Now
