The Gatherings

Sometimes the most important work happens in a room with others.

Not to share everything. Just to stop, together, and do your own work.

A lighter way to stay connected. With yourself, and me.

The Quarterly Check-In

Stop. Look. Choose.

Taking time out to focus on yourself doesn’t come naturally for many people. There’s usually something else or someone else who needs you more. You keep saying you’ll get round to it. But you don’t.

When do you stop? When do you choose to give yourself some space?

Next month. Next year. Or now.

If you don’t stop, you just bumble along. Days merge into weeks merge into months.

And by the end of the year you’re still thinking, “There’s got to be more to life than this. I can’t keep living this way.”

The only thing stopping you is the same thing that’s always stopped you. Everything else.

So what are you giving yourself 50 minutes for, if not this?

We meet on Teams. Up to 10 people.

You don’t come to share everything. You come to stop. You reflect. You write. I take you to where you’d usually just move on from, and we stay there long enough for it to mean something. You only share if you want to.

I’ll ask you two questions. The kind that sound easy until you give them your full attention.

And once you’ve sat with them, you decide. Stay as you are. Or do something about it.

I’m Andrea. Soulful Challenger, writer, and maker.

For 25 years I’ve helped people shed the layers that aren’t theirs and remember who they actually are underneath.

I hold up a mirror. And I don’t let you look away.

Northern grit meets deep compassion.

These gatherings are where some people begin. The real work continues one to one.
