Join us for “Nurturing and Sharing Your Authentic Flame,” a heartfelt reflection led by Kim Diana Connolly on the courage and joy of embracing our truest selves. Informed by insights from beloved pets and renowned thinkers, we’ll explore the power of authenticity in community and personal growth. Come ignite your inner truth to expand justice, compassion, and love.
