I became a Widow in 2010, I'm now 47 & have 3 children (2 teens & 1 preteen). As I see it, It seems like we're a small bunch? So the purpose of this group is to find other young, single parenting widows/widowers in the San Francisco Bay area. The goals would be to connect families that have lost a parent, offer mutual prayer support/encouragement & to plan some fun family activities every quarter !

We all long for understanding, compassion, and friendships. Often it is easier to find this among others who share our situation or outlook.

Whatever your reason, it’s time for you to get started on your journey. This group is led by a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and will help you take that f …

Imagine lively people-scaled  communities dotting the San Francisco Bay Area - places co-created by their residents for raising kids, for  retirement, for growing food or simply  living well by sharing more.

It can take 1-2 years or more to recover from divorce or separation. You need to create a new identity, discovering who you are as a single person, finding a sense of belonging in your community, finding or consolidating social networks, and adjusting to single parenthood. If you have kids, you have to re-learn how to deal with your ex, shifting communication styles, becoming more formal and distant. It may be hard to create new boundaries with your ex. The fighting may continue, or one of you m …

A meetup group designed to bring together SF Bay Area fathers whose parental rights are threatened or dysfunctional with the goal of exchanging advice, offering support, and ideally finding a path to fix the problems. This group is for single fathers, divorced fathers, and any father experiencing parental alienation and other challenges. Please do not use this as a forum for rants or for spreading negativity and hate!

The techniques I will show you during these meet ups are simple to learn. They helped me personally through my own divorce and self-discovery, where expensive talk therapy didn’t lead anywhere. This group is not going to satisfy those who wish to remain in their victimhood. This group is for people who are intending to face their own shadows, discover unconditional love of self and others, and allow transformation and wholeness to set in, as they rise up from the ashes of a divorce or break up.
