The Cottage Conversation: Realistic Self-Care with Abigail Dosen
Let’s be honest: sometimes "self-care" feels like just another thing on the to-do list. We’re ready to change that narrative.
We are so thrilled to host author Abigail Dosen at the shop for a night of real, honest conversation. This isn't about bubble baths and "zen" vibes—it's about practical, heart-centered tools for finding balance in our beautifully busy lives. Come as you are, grab a seat, and let’s dive in together.
