November gatherings to brighten your month
Published about 1 month ago • 4 min read
Hey Reader,
First, if you're one of our recent subscribers—welcome! It's lovely to have you join our Le Trente community. There's something about November, the way the light changes, how we naturally turn inward. We might feel our energy dipping just as we sense the year-end rush approaching. For me, it's certainly managing a certain overwhelm, working on my never-ending to-do lists.
To counterbalance what can feel like November blues (at least here in Geneva, though not today with the sun shining bright!), I've curated some choice gatherings for you, both online and on-land. First up, this Friday (and throughout the weekend) is a small circular fashion pop-up sale. Because conscious choices matter, because I (still) have way too many clothes. As for the pop up part, Christine of Lili K (@lilikgeneva) and Emel, of Vesper Geneva (@vespergeneva) have impeccable taste and I can’t wait for you to discover their beautiful accessories. This invitation is not public, message me for details if you'd like to join.
On Saturday, my brilliant friend Libby (@create.some.days) flies in from California (virtually) to help us reimagine what "normal" even means anymore and to explore living with more intentionality. For further details and booking, head over here. I’m also excited to announce our very first Story Circle, in person. An online circle will be announced soon, along with a dedicated email to tell you how we will connect through the ancient art of community storytelling. You can put the date in your diary, more on this next week. We're closing the month with our brilliant friends Manfreda and Felicity of Salt & Sage Storytelling (@saltandsagestorytelling) with a one-hour online masterclass. They will explore with us how to stand out from the crowd when everyone's using the same AI tools. Details and registration in this link. Oh, and our monthly Intention Hour returns, because some practices are too precious to skip. I did forget to put the invitation up in my Instagram slide show the other day, but I invite you to join me for this short commitment which can so powerfully impact how you show up for what matters to you most. Details and booking in this link.
November gatherings
Also, a quick note on pricing. At Le Trente, we believe in making transformative learning and reflective gatherings accessible to all. For the masterclasses, we're suggesting a contribution of 35 CHF, but we operate on a pay-what-you-can basis. Whether you can contribute 35 CHF or 1 EUR, what matters most is your commitment to showing up and engaging with this unique content. Why do we ask for payment? We've learned that when we invest (even a small amount) we're more likely to prioritise and attend. (Translation: when I sign up for free events, I rarely show up. I assume it's true for you too!)
And at Le Trente, we believe we learn best from each other. To do that, we need to be present! Your contribution, whatever the amount, also supports the work we do here and helps us continue bringing brilliant guest experts like Freddie and Flea to our community. For workshops, like the upcoming Some Days Reimagining Normal and Living with Intention, coming up this weekend, we are also happy to offer financial assistance. Simply respond to this email if you need help. Thanks so much for reading me, I hope that you’ll feel tempted to join, whether it’s your first time or you are a regular.
If you think of someone who would benefit from attending any of these gatherings, please do them (and us) the favour of passing this message along. Your support is greatly appreciated. Wishing you a lovely day ahead. Warmly,
