The pre-shower bun.

The one you scoop up quickly because the water’s running, time is short, and you’re not planning to be seen by anyone who matters.

No mirror check. No strategy. No expectations.

It just… lands.

Balanced. Relaxed. Slightly impressive for something with zero ambition.

Then later, with intention and two free hands, the bun collapses into something else entirely.

Same hair. Different energy.

Anyway.

Some friendships don’t start with a spark.
They start with repetition.

Seeing the same faces.
Doing something with your hands.
Sharing a morning without needing to explain yourself.

Wild Gatherings isn’t about “putting yourself out there.”
It’s about giving connection enough time to feel familiar.

A small group of women.
A school-term rhythm.
Gentle activities that carry the conversation so you don’t have to.

No icebreakers.
No over-sharing.
No pressure to arrive as your best self.

Just space to show up, again and again, and let something steady form.

If this feels like your pace, come join us. 🌿

It’s easy - just two steps 👇

Step one: stop trying to make conversation when your brain is buffering.

Step two: come sit at a table with us.

No small talk.
No name tags.
No pressure to perform like you’re still in your networking era.

Just women showing up exactly as they are, to feel a bit more human around other humans.

If you’re in or near the Dandenong Ranges and feeling a bit socially tired, there’s a spot for you at the table.

Our next Mugs ‘n Hugs is Monday 12 January
11am at Shane on Colby (Colby Drive, Belgrave South).

You don’t need to bring anything.
Just come as you are.

And here they are:

If it feels like a networking event, I leave.
If it feels like a performance, I shut down.
If it feels like I’m supposed to “be interesting,” I want to go home and watch Love It Or List It reruns.

So when I started Mugs ‘n Hugs, I promised myself this:

No icebreakers.
No going round in a circle.
No one telling their life story unless they want to.

Just warm mugs. Easy chats. Something to do with your hands.

And a room where no one’s waiting to speak, just listening, being, or hanging out in the quiet.

You don’t have to be lonely to want more connection.
And you don’t have to be “on” to be welcome here.

If you’re tired of being tired of people…
You’ll probably like it.

Honestly, I’m so glad I ignored it.

There’s no shortage of advice out there for how to “make friends as an adult.”

Most of it assumes you’re starting from scratch and that you want a social calendar full of new besties.

But for so many women (especially after big life changes), what we really want is… less.

Less pressure.
Less performance.
Less chasing chemistry that rarely lasts.

If you’re finally ready for connection that feels like a quiet exhale and not a personality test or a forced heart-share…
you’re in the right place.

We don’t do intensity here.
We do in-between.
We do presence.

And no, you don’t have to “put yourself out there” to feel like you belong.

Because you already do 🫶

Wild Gatherings is for women who want continuity, not intensity.

It’s for when you realise that what you’re missing isn’t confidence or effort, but familiarity and time.

Most women find their way here after coming to Mugs ‘n Hugs, once they know they want something steadier…

…but there’s no right order and no expectation to be “ready.”

All the details live on my page.

If the last post felt like it described you,
this is the gentlest next step.

Mugs ‘n Hugs is a free, low-stakes way to be around other women without being asked to perform, share, or explain yourself.

You can come alone.
You can sit quietly.
You can leave whenever you like.

Save it for when you’re ready.
There’s no rush.

You don’t have to be confident to belong.

You don’t need lots of friends.
Or any, right now.

If making friends after 35 has started to feel like dating apps and dread…

…stay close.

There are gentler ways to do this.

Together.
