đšExciting Announcements!
Hi all! I am so excited to share that Culturally Enough. is a growing team and that means more for you this Fall (details below). We have so much coming your way in hope to help you connect with other community members and encourage you on your healing journeys.
Here are some new things you can look forward to:
đŹOngoing and consistent weekly chats and reflections to facilitate community connection between you all on different topics and to encourage you to reflect deeper on a specific belief/idea.
đĄâAsk The Communityâ where each month we will feature a problem that someone in the community is having and we will skill share to help them solve it!
đâCommunity Storytimeâ where each month we will feature a story from one of you. We will be experimenting with this idea in different formats and variations but if you want to be a part of the first edition, scroll down or click here!
đMore robust monthly roundups with resources, readings, links, products, and more (and your recommendations).
đBook club will be coming back, and we will have book giveaways!
Things may start to look and feel different but thatâs because we are hoping to create consistency and an extensive archive for you to return to as you need.
Even more, we will be sharing a detailed survey for you to fill out in the coming weeks (with a wonderful gift to thank you for your time) + focus groups with folks interested so you can have a stake in where this community goes and growsđł.
A community is a body of individuals, and you are each an important part of this community. You have a voice; we want to hear it. <3
Whatâs NOT changing?
It may take us a few months to really develop how we want to sustainably build out this newsletter community. There are exciting new things, but some things will not be changing.
Most importantly, I, Sahaj, will still be sharing my own stories and expertise as a therapist throughout each month. I may play with different styles â audio, video, conversation guides, and so on â but I also want to make sure I center you all in this work! If anything, these additional resources will complement and further the community care I am so passionate about.
đ»Our two live (via Zoom) community conversation clubs a month are not going anywhere! ***This month, the first one is THIS Sunday at 1pm-2pm ET (a link will be sent out to paid subscribers on Friday). The second one will be on September 26 at 7pm-8pm ET. This is at a different time per some feedback we received about scheduling issues.
What does this mean for you?
Nothing is changing with your subscription (unless you want it to!). While not everything will be available to free subscribers (as it is now), there will be some things (like the âCommunity Storytimeâ and more) that will be accessible to all!
When can we expect these new offerings?
Soon! We are taking a two-week break to get these new offerings ready for you, which means you will see us in your inbox the weekend of September 15 (next week!). Thank you for your patience and for being here with me. I will be getting personal in the next letter and am looking forward to sharing more about these upcoming changes.
I know that this was a bit nitty-gritty but I value transparency and want you all on this journey with me.
Rooting for you,
Sahaj
