Bloom Hours: Free Women’s Meetup for Joy, Mental Wellness & Community

“Bloom Hours” presented by With Joy

A free monthly gathering for women seeking joy, connection, and community.

A space to gather, inspire, belong, share experiences, and learn from each other.

With Joy invites you to Bloom Hours, a free monthly gathering where women slow down, share space, and reconnect with joy. No pressure, no performance, just an open-hearted place to come as you are and leave a little lighter. Presence, warmth, and community. Together, we fill our cups.

Are you building a life in a new place? Adjusting to motherhood? Healing from past wounds or moving through change? Longing to reconnect with yourself and dream about what’s next? Hoping to find a community where you feel seen, supported, and inspired?

Sometimes we just need a space to breathe, to laugh, to be reminded that we are not alone. Bloom Hours was created for those moments, for the women who are new to this place, new to this work, or simply longing to feel connected again. There is no pressure here to be anything other than yourself.

Each month offers something different, but the heart stays the same: joy, connection, and community. This month we will focus on values and strengths, exploring what grounds us and what helps us shine. If you’d like, you can take the free VIA Character Strengths survey before we meet: https://www.viacharacter.org. It’s a sweet little way to reflect on what makes you shine, and it might spark some lovely conversations during our time together. Totally optional. Come as you are, always.

“We dream of a world where every woman is supported by a strong and caring community, ignited to live with joy. A world where she can stand in her truth, honor her needs, care for herself with kindness, and trust in her strength to grow and heal.”

With Joy is a mental wellness hub for women seeking connection, self-discovery, and support. It's a space where women uplift and inspire one another toward greater clarity, balance, and joy.

Our mission is to support women through life transitions and healing journeys by providing community, coaching, and tools grounded in science and lived experiences.
