Six-week program: $349
Friendships develop through repeated opportunities to spend time together. For six weeks, the same group of women will enjoy relaxed conversation, shared activities, laughter, and opportunities to discover common interests and form new connections.
This is more than a series of social gatherings. Each group is led by an expert social coach who understands how friendships develop and how to help a group move beyond introductions and surface-level conversation.
Throughout each gathering, your coach will provide just the right amount of structure and guidance to help conversations flow, encourage connections as they develop, and help the group build real momentum toward friendship.
The coaching is woven naturally into the experience, so you can enjoy the gathering while receiving support in the moments when it is most useful.
Each 90-minute gathering will include:
• Time to arrive, settle in, and reconnect with the group
• A brief social coaching or positive psychology topic
• An enjoyable shared activity
• Plenty of time for conversation, laughter, and connection
• Gentle guidance from an expert social coach
• Opportunities to discover shared interests and continue conversations between gatherings
Activities may include games, creative projects, conversation activities, fiber arts, mocktail-making, gratitude activities, and opportunities to learn something new together. Activities will be selected and adapted for the in-person and online groups.
Simply Social Connect™ is designed for women age 35 and older who would like more friendship and social connection in their lives.
You may have experienced changes in your family, work, relationships, or community. You may have moved, lost touch with friends, or realized that your social circle has become smaller over time. You may simply be ready to meet new people and make more room for friendship in your life.
Simply Social Connect™ gives you a comfortable and welcoming place to meet other women who are looking for connection too.
Stay Connected Between Gatherings
Access to our private Social Circle is included throughout the six-week program. Participants can use the Social Circle to continue conversations, share interests, and connect between weekly gatherings.
Access will remain available for one week after the final gathering. Participants who would like to remain in the Social Circle after that may continue for $18 per month and can cancel at any time.
The in-person group will meet at the Simply Social Skills center in Tyngsboro, Massachusetts, and will be led by Nadine Briggs.
