Before the Holidays: A Space to Come Together

A Virtual Circle for Survivors

Tuesday, December 15, 2026 | 6-7 PM Mountain Time
Limited to 6-8 participants

join us for a free survivor circle

The holidays can be complicated. For many survivors, this time of year brings up difficult family dynamics, painful memories, or the particular loneliness of not having plans at all.

This meetup is a space to come together before the holidays begin. Whether you want to talk through your plans, process what’s coming up, or simply be around people who understand, you’re welcome here.

WHAT TO EXPECT

This is a 60-minute virtual gathering where you'll:

  • Debrief about the holidays

  • Talk about navigating time with family members who have caused harm

  • Make space for difficult memories that the season can stir up

  • Hear coping tips from Gabby to help you through the holidays

  • Connect with other survivors in a supportive space

This workshop is grounded in care. We'll move at a pace that honors everyone's capacity. You're welcome to participate as much or as little as feels right for you.
