The Gathering Table
You know the room.
The one where you have to perform a little.
Where someone's always keeping score.
Where you leave feeling more tired than when you walked in.
This isn't that room.
The Gathering Table is a small circle of women gathering virtually once a week to cook, create, and connect.
We were never meant to do this alone.
Real nourishment comes from connection. From conversation. From being together and bearing witness to each other.
Two cooking classes. One sound bath.
One seasonal creation - something made with your hands that marks the season- flower pounding, herbal salt blending, candle making, fire bowl release, spice grinding, sun prints.
Four hours each month. Twelve hours over three months that belong entirely to you.
Because nourishment goes beyond the plate. It lives in the food you make, the sound you let in, the ritual you create, and the women you do it with.
Virtual, with in-person seasonal meetups in spring and fall for those who can make it.
Investment: $127/month - 3 month minimum commitment.

What People Are Saying
Cooking together, then dropping into the sound bath, felt like a reset for my whole nervous system. I left each week fed in every way, and somehow more myself.
May
I didn’t expect the seasonal ritual to hit me the way it did. Making something with my hands made the season feel real again, like time had texture. It was creative, grounding, and quietly powerful.
Emily
This program gave me twelve hours that actually belonged to me. The classes were simple to follow, but the connection was the magic. I came for the cooking and stayed for the women, the laughter, and the deep exhale I didn’t know I needed.
