Rooted & Gathered: A Community Care Friendsgiving

An evening to slow down, reflect on the year & connect with others over a catered dinner, we’ll celebrate, release & set intentions. The holidays can be full and lonely at the same time. Rooted & Gathered is an evening to fill your cup instead of emptying it. Hosted by Sherrell McLean, founder of S.M.O.O.T.H. Transitions, this Friendsgiving brings people together around community care. Together we connect, reflect, support and grow. Some guests may know each other, many won't, and that's the point. You'll be guided through easy, structured conversations, so there's no awkward mingling required. The evening includes: • Guided connection rounds to meet new people with ease • A short reflection experience to celebrate your year, release what's been weighing you down, and set one intention for what's next • A catered Friendsgiving buffet with dessert and drinks • A door prize, games, and music to close the night This event is for you if you're in a season of change, craving real connection, tired of small talk, or ready to end the year with intention. You'll leave with new connections, a clearer sense of what you're carrying into the new year, and a Plant Card to keep your intention close.
