The Boston Healers Network

Boston, MA

The Boston Healers Network
The purpose of this group is to be a resource for local alternative healers as well as those seeking healing or knowledge about the diversity of alternative modalities in the Greater Boston region; to build stronger relationships with each other; to expand our awareness of one another and ourselves; to advance our skills and knowledge through collaboration and creative thinking; and to positively impact the Planet one person at a time starting with each one of us. Whether you are a practitioner looking for resources or connections within the community, an individual seeking healing for yourself or a loved one, a student looking for a teacher, a teacher looking for a student, or just plain curious - you are welcome here. This group was formerly the Boston Energy Healers Group, but in late 2012 it expanded its definition to include a more diverse range of practices with the understanding that all healing work is based upon energy/spirit at its source. If you are a practitioner with regular occurring events in line with the groups focus, reach out to Kat to request to be an Event Organizer, and you can share your events here with the community. All members of this group who are practitioners of a healing are encouraged to seek out opportunities to network with other members and build stronger relationships for mutual support. ALL of the members of this group who are learners are welcome to send out inquiries about where they can find a practitioner for healing or training. Intolerance will not be permitted here. Disrespectful and/or abusive language will not be permitted here. Solicitations from commercial advertisers and "spam" will not be permitted here. *

Tiny Farms Network

West Newton, MA

Tiny Farms Network
The purpose of this group is to bring together like-minded individuals who are interested in starting a tiny farm business at home or already have one and want to join and share their experiences with the rest of us. I don’t want to get ahead of myself, but I see this as a great opportunity to have industry professionals join in and answer questions that we all have about growing and marketing and business in general. As I write this in September 2023, I am just thinking about my future tiny farm and collecting knowledge and bits and pieces to see this as a reality in my future. I know their other tiny farms in greater Boston but they’re hard to find on the Internet. Here is my bit on what the group is about - thanks to Chat GPT for this amazing writeup. \*\*Tiny Farm Network: Cultivating Small Wonders\*\* Dive into the world of the Tiny Farm Network, where the charm of farming is ingeniously reimagined for urban spaces. Our community embraces passionate gardeners who transform overlooked nooks like garages, basements, and attics into lush, green sanctuaries. Even the tiniest plots of land come alive under the tender care of our dedicated members. It's not about the size, but the yield of one's passion and innovation. Explore gardens flourishing with delicate microgreens, the earthy aroma of freshly sprouted mushrooms, and a plethora of other pint-sized plants and products. Whether you have an expansive backyard or just a windowsill, the Tiny Farm Network is your gateway to sustainable, urban farming. Join us and discover the joy of small business growing, no matter the scale. \*\*Navigating the Green Frontier: Unity Amidst Competition\*\* In the rapidly evolving landscape of urban farming, competition is fierce. Each gardener and cultivator brings to the table a unique blend of innovation, honed through trials, errors, and triumphs. Yet, as members of the Tiny Farm Network, we recognize an invaluable truth: while competition drives us to excel, collaboration propels us further. By pooling our collective knowledge, techniques, and discoveries, we not only stay ahead of industry trends but also fortify our shared mission. Together, we're not just competitors; we're pioneers, navigating the verdant frontier of sustainable growth. Sharing our expertise ensures that every tiny farm, no matter its size, thrives in this dynamic industry.

Awesome Entrepreneur and Engineer Network Boston

Boston, MA

Awesome Entrepreneur and Engineer Network Boston
\-\-\-\- FIND GREAT LIKE\-MINDED PEOPLE TO WORK AND BE FRIENDS WITH \-\-\-\- If you want to find a really special community and group of people - sometimes you just have to create it.   If you are looking for something really amazing with great people: Please read the whole description! It will be worth it. I am starting a network with people who inspire each other. Join our discord (https://discord.gg/XpG5UJzkUu) and join us for amazing small-group coffee chats where we make new friends and pair up to co-work. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- WHO THIS GROUP IS SUITED FOR \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- You are a great fit if you think of yourself as: * Being a passionate professional - an entrepreneur, engineer, business person, student, artist... who loves what they do * Being inspired * Wanting to inspire others; want to meet wholesome people * Actively accepting other people for who they are, cherishing differences * Not focused on smalltalk and gossip or social expectations but instead looking for meaningful connections * simply looking for great friends you share something with * want to collaborate or pair program on things * open-minded * excited to work together on something * want to laugh, have fun, and joy at work together \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- WHAT THE PLAN IS \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- We will meet in a very small group in a cafe. Locations may change throughout Boston but will often be in East Boston, for example Cafe Iterum. Part of the time we will chat, get to know each other, and have fun; part of the time we will work together on things in groups - doesn't matter what, personally I like pair programming or exploring startup ideas, but can be anything - and share our passion for it. Ideally we will create friendships, business connections who want to work together and recruit each other possibly, maybe even create startups. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- OTHER LOGISTICAL INFOS \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- I will require you to apply for this group, to keep it small. It's first come first serve. But we can either add a wait list, come up with a further way to connect e.g. by creating a discord server and self-organizing, or split into multiple separate meetings so everyone can join. So do reach out to me. If you apply to this meetup group, you don't have to prove yourself or something. I'll accept anyone. You only have to tell me that you feel like you fit with what I wrote here. You can copy-paste if you like: "Hey Jesper, I feel like I'd fit well with a group of people you described. Please accept me into the group." Kind of a disclaimer: I want this to be like a nice chat over coffee with friends. In normal life, you don't have endless time and pick to have coffee with people you actually like, in most cases. To make this work for now I will set the clear expectation that I decide who joins us and who leaves us, at will. As soon as possible, I will provide an alternative so it's not a problem, like a discord server, where you can just self-organize in any way you want and nobody has to meet with people they don't want to. Also I'll try to structure this more in the future so it's fair and not me arbitrarily deciding, for example by adding a code of conduct and things like that. In the meantime, just want to set expectations that the decision is up to me and I decide not to include people in meetings anymore without giving any reason. Hopefully though this will never happen. Another avenue to reach out to me is via LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jesper-hodge-a57324143/. Never be shy to do so! I love to talk to you whoever you are. I don't have expectations for people.
