Mostly women, black and British, they tell the stories of their families, friends and lovers, across the country and through the years.” (Goodreads Review.)

Chicago Chapter Event: Boundaries: Live Your Life as a “Hell Yes” by Learning How to Say No!
Thursday, October 14, 2021, 5:30‑7pm CDTLocation: Zoom link provided with registration – Please save to your calendar!
Members: FREE, Guest: $5
Can you think of a person or situation that is consistently a source of frustration, that leaves you feeling unfulfilled and powerless? That is likely an issue with boundaries. Your boundaries.
Without boundaries, people may take advantage of you because you haven’t set limits about how you expect to be treated. Boundaries help put the opportunity of relief and freedom squarely in your control.
Personal boundaries are the limits and rules we set for ourselves within relationships. A person with healthy boundaries are able to say “no” to others when they want to, but they are also comfortable opening themselves up to intimacy and close relationships.
In our workshop, we will:
- Define boundaries, what they are and what they aren’t
- Explore ways to set, communicate, and hold your boundaries
- Identify obstacles to setting up boundaries
- Reflect on where it’s best for you to begin to incorporate boundaries for yourself

Philadelphia Chapter Event: Restoring Philadelphia’s City Hall- An Insider's Look
Monday, October 18, 2021, 2‑3:30pm EDTLocation: Virtual Event via Zoom
Registration Deadline: Sunday, October 17, 2021
All Attendees: $5
Philadelphia’s City Hall, topped by the iconic statue of William Penn looking down at his “holy experiment,” is one of the city’s most familiar sights. It is reported that there are over 250 sculptures and bas-reliefs that were also modeled by Alexander Milne Calder, the grandfather of Alexander (Sandy) Calder, who worked out of a south basement studio space in City Hall. Calder modeled the sculptures in plaster to represent the people and animals of the world, elements, human goals and endeavors, as well as additional themes related to the city of Philadelphia; business, industry and the arts. Our expert presenter, Nan R. Gutterman, has personally inspected (along with a structural engineer and stone conservator) all the pieces, over a period of the nearly 12 years for the restoration and conservation.
You won’t want to miss what promises to be an insider’s look at the history of this beloved building and the stories behind the patriarch of one of the city’s most famous artistic families.

Restricted to members only
This event is SOLD OUT!
Members: FREE
Wait, wait, we know what you’re thinking! You’ve had enough! No more doom and gloom. We get it!
That’s why we are focusing these conversations on how loss shapes our experience, and how it teaches us what matters, how can we turn wounds into wisdom and pain into purpose. Instead of sadness, we are aiming for joy.
In this three-part conversation series, we’ll look at all kinds of losses, especially those that often go unacknowledged like relationships, identity, safety, mobility, or jobs, and talk about lighter, happier ways to move forward.
We’ll share nourishing insights, information and resources, all with humor and grace.
Please contact wendy.dc.ttn@gmail.com if you would like to be added to the waitlist for this program.
