We moved our family of three to Cary from the Finger Lakes Region of NY in May 2012. We are gentle, attached, semi-crunchy parents to our amazing and active two year old daughter. After attending a few other mommy and me group meetups, I realized they were not a great fit.  We parent by instinct, practice co-sleeping, full term breastfeed, baby wear, avoid toxic products and plastic and eat a mostly whole, organic (when possible) unprocessed diet which are not mainstream and apparently these thi …

I previously facilitated a very active mommy and expectant mommy group (Triangle New and Expectant Moms Cafe) for about a year and half with over 200 members.

The purpose is to help non-religious people create a part of their social lives that is free of religious pressure and proselytization, and a place where we can privately discuss aspects of our non-religious lives.

It can be intimidating for women to learn and ask questions when they are in an extreme minority. While open and welcoming, today's budding developer community is up to 91% male.

We decided it was time to provide a place where all questions are OK and everyone can learn in a supportive environment. Our courses focus on coding, leveraging existing technology, and having something t …

I decided to start this group after discovering among native American and other indigenous peoples their tradition of spiritual teachers called "Earth Keepers". Earth Keepers accept the responsibility to honor the spiritual essence of this Earth and all her "helpers" among the angelic beings, ancestral beings, the nature spirits and the elementals. By honoring and giving support to these beings, they support the Earth at this dangerous moment in history. Like humanity, these Beings need the supp …

Over Thanksgiving, I went to a coffee house chess club that my dad runs in Ohio. It was an amazing experience--people of all ages and skill levels observing, talking about, giving impromptu lessons in and playing chess. The social energy at a club like this creates an environment where we can improve our chess skills in a way that is often more difficult (and less fun) in an online-only practice. This is a very welcoming group, and anyone who likes to play chess is invited. Ideally, this group …
