Confident Connections: Conversation, Community, Food, & Play

Join us for the first gathering of Lunch & Life, a recurring lunch series centered around interesting people, thought-provoking ideas, and meaningful conversation.

For this first gathering, we’ll explore ideas from Gabor Maté on connection, stress, relationships, and how our experiences shape us.

Share a favorite Gabor Maté video, quote, or takeaway in the event chat/comments for others to enjoy as well or simply share about it with the group over lunch.

Future Lunch & Life gatherings will explore other influential speakers, authors, and topics that inspire connection and personal growth—from psychology and philosophy to personal and professional development, relationships, and the ideas that make us think differently.

Come enjoy a great meal, meet thoughtful people, and have a conversation that goes beyond small talk.

Our guests are always asked to order food/drink (at guest's expense) and to contribute toward tips to ensure hosting establishments are shown appreciation for their service.

Curious about A Course in Miracles (ACIM) or looking for a more structured way to study it? Join us for a free, welcoming class this Sunday at Unity of Phoenix Spiritual Center. No religious affiliation needed to attend. Truly, some of the kindest people are in the ACIM rooms.

This is a wonderful class I've attended over the years, structured to help you better understand this life-changing Course. Folks explore ACIM ideas together, and discuss how its teachings can be applied to everyday life. You don’t need to be an ACIM expert—or have the book—to join. Come curious, come as you are, and see if the class resonates with you.

There are usually about 10-20 people present.

🗓️ Sunday | 9:30–10:45 AM
📍 Unity of Phoenix Spiritual Center
1500 E. Greenway Parkway, Phoenix, AZ 85022
💰 Free to attend

I’ll be in the room (second floor) by 9:15 AM to greet our friends!
The class is in the Administration Building, to the left of the courtyard area. Head to the second floor, turn right, pass the bathrooms, then make a quick right then left and head to the room straight back.
Whether you’re brand new to A Course in Miracles or have been studying it for years, all are welcome!

Hey friends! ❤️ As we’re still new and getting off the ground, it seems our singles event tomorrow is attracting the most attention, so let’s make our first dinner on Sunday a Singles Dinner as we gain some momentum and grow our little family!

I’ll bring some icebreakers to nudge conversation along—no dull moments with me! 😄

Let’s check out the new All You Can Eat sushi restaurant in North Scottsdale and mingle over munchies! 🍣 Dinner is $39.95 + tax per person for All You Can Eat, or you can order from the menu. They have some pretty unique selections, which I appreciate, and I’d love to share bites with folks.

Let’s enjoy cool robots, great food, conversation with new people, and the chance to expand our circles! Come prepared to share your top 3 favorite restaurants and go-to orders around town—you might just inspire our next meetup!

And by the way they do have plenty of options for non Sushi eaters to enjoy!

As always, guests are asked to order food/drink and tip at their own expense so we can support and appreciate our hosting establishment.

Can’t wait to meet you—or see you back! ❤️

Join us for a night out for intimate theater. We'll be seeing She Loves Me and if you haven't been to Don Bluth, you're in for a treat! every seat is phenomenal! We may not be seated together but it won't matter since we won't be talking during the show anyway.

I'll be there by 6 to usher. Show up early so I can introduce you to one another in the lobby. We can certainly linger after to connect over the show.

Come solo or bring a friend! All are welcome!
