About this Event
This dinner is a quiet evening for Asian mothers who want to exhale, share, and steep in the stories that shape us. Over food and gentle conversation, we’ll explore what it means to mother, work, and create lives that feel our own.
We’ll meet in a small group around the table. Over shared food, we’ll talk about the everyday contradictions of our lives — how we raise our kids differently from how we were raised and how we keep family values alive while building new lives here.
There’s no programme, no facilitation — just honest conversation and gentle company.
We listen, we laugh, and we hold space for what’s real.
Why “The Second Steep”
Like tea that grows richer the second time it’s brewed, our lives deepen in this next season of motherhood — through exchange, reflection, and friendship.
