Too often, we’re taught to choose. To be nurturing or ambitious. Gentle or powerful. Vulnerable or protected. But true wholeness requires both. And the Solstice, a moment suspended between darkness and light, reminds us that we can hold all of ourselves with compassion and communal care.

This evening is for Black and Brown women ready to stop abandoning parts of their hearts and learn to embrace their fullness with honesty, softness, and courage.

At Compassion Collective, our Soft Life Suppers aren’t about bypassing the hard parts; they’re about holding them with the same tenderness we offer joy. This is a place where we create softness by leaning into community and connection.

What’s Included:

• 4-hour immersive evening experience
• Chef-prepared, multi-course gourmet dinner
• Wine, signature cocktail, and mocktail options
• Guided conversation and reflection facilitated by Esther Boykin, LMFT
• Winter Solstice fire ceremony
• Welcome gift and thoughtful touches throughout the evening

You deserve to have a seat at the table.

• You’ve been running on overdrive and need permission to rest without guilt
