What we’re about
I have been looking for a group in Long Island that is fun but relaxed and open to both women and men/all. It is a bit difficult developing new friendships in and after your thirties in LI or just finding something to do on the weekends at times so I would like to do things like a movie, get drinks, painting, arcade/gaming places, or just hanging out at a Panera or something like that. I feel like all the groups on Long Island are 4am soccer, hikes, lunches with 5000 rules or meditation 😂 To each their own but I wanted to create a different group :)
A little bit about me: My name is Michelle and I am 40 and work in Garden City in the health care field. I focused a lot on my career but in the past couple of years I realized my social circle has gotten smaller as people grow their family, move out of LI, and I am no longer in daily environment where I see the same people each day (literally run a virtual group practice!) I miss just regularly hanging out, having drinks, getting lunch, having people to chat with casually, etc. I want to just enjoy life with others and get out there more eve though I love the close relationships I have.
Feel free to introduce yourself and list things you would like to do or anything about yourself.
I do just also want to add that this group is inclusive and important for me to say that I am Jewish and do expect those coming to group to be inclusive to the point of respecting culture, religion, race, gender, sexuality etc of all especially where the goal and focus is in just trying to be a good enough person in life and showing care for people.
Lastly sometimes I can be a bit quiet and socially awkward even though I am running group, bare with me lol, but part of the reason I have this group is try and get out there more :)
