connection without pressure

Community at Paloma House is built slowly, naturally, and intentionally.

This is not about networking, performing, or showing up as your best self. It’s about real connection, the kind that happens when you’re allowed to be exactly where you are.

Community programming exists to make it easier to leave the house, sit with other women, and feel a little less alone.

what our community feels like

Community at Paloma House is invitational, not obligatory.

You don’t need to attend everything to belong. You don’t need to know anyone before you arrive. You don’t need to contribute more than your presence.

Some gatherings are quiet and grounding. Some are social and energizing. All are designed to feel welcoming and low-pressure.

types of social gatherings you’ll find here

  • Coffee + connection mornings

  • Conversations on the couch

  • Ladies nights and evening socials

  • Seasonal workshops and discussion-based gatherings

  • Family-friendly community moments and pop-ups

Programming shifts with the seasons, reflecting what our community needs most at any given time.

members & new-friends are welcome

Many community events at Paloma House are open to both members and new-friends.

Membership offers priority registration, preferred pricing, and the ease of having a familiar place to return to, but it is never a requirement to participate.

You’re welcome to come once, occasionally, or regularly.

coming alone is okay

Many women walk through our doors alone for the first time.

Community programming is designed with that in mind, so you’re never expected to arrive with a friend or already feel connected.

Conversations happen naturally. Belonging grows over time.

community with real life in mind

Community at Paloma House honors the realities of modern life.

That means:

  • Flexible start times

  • Space for strollers and little ones at select events

  • Understanding when plans change

  • Support for different seasons of energy and availability

Community shouldn’t add pressure to your life, it should relieve it.

a supportive place to begin

If you’re curious about community programming, start with whatever feels easiest.

Join us for a morning coffee. Come to an evening gathering. Sit in the space and see how it feels.

You don’t have to stay long. You don’t have to say much.

You just have to show up.

Come see what it feels like to connect without pressure.
