How to Find Real Friends aka My Favorite Bunch of Weirdos
We are wonderfully human, with flaws, imperfections, and the need to belong. But so often we focus on trying to be perfect and hide our flaws in order to fit in, to feel like we belong.
What if we’ve got it backwards? What if the best way to feel the most belonging is to let our freak flag’s fly, embrace our weird quirks, and bond over our mistakes?
I feel like that’s what I’ve created with CommuniTea, my weekly journaling group. We’re an odd bunch, myself included, and it’s wonderful! Our conversations are both insightful and give us deep belly laughs. We marvel at our growth and cheer each other on. It’s beautiful both to witness and be a part of it.
I didn’t intend for this post to be an invitation to join CommuniTea and yet I feel called to share the love and invite you into this group of incredible weirdos that I love dearly.
Here’s how you’ll know if CommuniTea is for you:
You would love to have a close group of friends that just get you
You enjoy offbeat humor
You want encouragement to embrace & love your weird
You’re open to try journaling and guided meditation
You thrive in safe spaces
Does that sound like you? Then, join us on Friday at 4pm PDT. Your first month is free.
This is a genuine invitation to join us if you feel called. What I mean by feeling called is that as you read the list above you thought things like, “that sounds so awesome” “oh! I could really use that” “my humor is totally offbeat, ha, ha, ha”
and you had thoughts of doubt like, “this sounds like something I’d really love, but I don’t know how to fit it in” “I feel so busy, this just isn’t for me right now”
To your doubts I say, if you do feel super busy and like you just can’t seem to carve time out for yourself, then CommuniTea IS for you. It’s a time to support you, to replenish your cup, to remind you that you matter and there are other people that get you and care about you too.
And seriously, your first month is free, so you can come check us out, decide if we’re your new besties (or not) and then either keep coming, or cancel and bail. It’s all good either way. You won’t know for sure if it’s for you unless you take a leap of faith and join us for at least one Friday. So why not this Friday? Join us here.
