​What to Expect
​Step into one of the most beautiful and peaceful places in the city — a living work of art. Together, we’ll take a slow, mindful walk through the gardens, connecting with nature, beauty, and each other.
​With stunning views of Mt. Hood, koi ponds, bonsai, and meticulously designed landscapes, the Garden invites reflection, conversation, and a deeper sense of presence.
​This isn’t just an outing — it’s a pause. A breath. A way to reconnect with yourself and the women walking beside you.
​🌿 Reflection Prompts
​In small groups, we will do some written and shared reflections:
​What helps you feel grounded when life speeds up?
​Where do you go — physically or mentally — to find peace?
​What kind of growth are you inviting into your life this season?
​Let the beauty of the garden deepen your connections — with nature, with self, and with each other. We can’t wait to walk with you. 🌸
​With love,
Dawn
