If you’re starting to dream about the new year, I want to propose something that would significantly improve your year: Start a women’s group in 2025.
I'm calling it a "women's group" - but this episode is for men, too. I talk about what this kind of group *is*, my own experiences starting one, how we run our meetings, and what I think works well for us.
Just having a richer, deeper support system can make such a difference in our lives — I know it has for me. And I want to remind you that even if it doesn’t “just happen” naturally, you can make it happen — and that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. It would be such a blessing for your 2025, and for all who you include in that circle.
