Pour Into Life
A monthly gathering to connect, reflect, and refill our cups, in beautiful spaces, over meaningful conversations, with a touch of wine.
Each month, we come together in the natural beauty of Starfield Winery to:
-
Build authentic connections and friendships that matter
-
Pause for honest reflection on what’s draining and what’s filling us
-
Share meaningful, uplifting conversations in community
-
Walk away feeling lighter, grounded, and more alive
This is not about venting or toxic positivity. It’s about creating a space where realness and hope meet, where we pour into ourselves and each other so we can show up more fully in life.
Why the Name “Pour Into Life”?
The name carries the spirit of this gathering:
-
Pour – a symbol of generosity, presence, and community, often shared with a glass of wine in hand
-
Into Life – a reminder that our energy, wisdom, and care are meant to be poured into the lives we’re living and into each other
Wine is not the focus, it’s simply a companion to the deeper experience of connection, conversation, and renewal.
What You’ll Experience:
Each gathering includes a gentle flow to help you land, connect, and leave refreshed:
1. Welcome & Arrival
Settle in with a reflection: “How alive do you feel right now on a scale of 1–10?” Optional journaling or brief sharing.
2. Opening Circle
Guided by a monthly theme, such as “What’s filling your cup?” or “Where are you feeling drained?”
3. Facilitated Conversation
Lightly guided reflections and prompts to open up deeper dialogue:
- What makes you smile?
- What pours life into you?
- Where do you want to direct your energy this season?
4. Closing Ritual
End with intention: “What are you taking with you today?” or “One way you’ll pour into yourself this week.”
Leave with a renewed sense of clarity and connection.
