I have arranged a gathering for ladies at Barbara’s Bookstore at Hawthorn Mall in Vernon Hills. I am not charging for this…it’s my gift for women to celebrate friendships with women!

During the two hours I will lead a somewhat structured program to encourage people to get to know each other. This won’t be like your typical social where you talk about superficial things that really are not of deep meaning, like what the weather forecast is, who we live with and what we do for a living. This is meant for people who really want to begin to potentially build friendships and/or explore people’s interests, thoughts, feelings and perspectives. Of course, you can share whatever you want but this is not a superficial gathering…I think we can all agree we get plenty of that already!
