Empowerment Through Community
We believe in the sacredness of a fireside chat and the healing power of happy hour, so coming together for in-person events is core to our community. Our transformative events are designed to unite those who share many of the same lifelong struggles. We produce live podcast events and self care retreats, and we’re always looking for exciting ways to cultivate community on and offline. Through live connection, our aim is to bring together WLS patients so we can form lifelong friendships and bonds.
