Hi, I'm Kate.
A year ago, if you'd asked me what I wanted out of life, my answer probably would have revolved around work.Instead, I got fired.I was fired after pushing back on a job that was demanding far more of me than I was willing to keep giving. At the time, it felt like a slap in the face. Now, I see it as one of the best things that could have happened.Losing my job gave me the opportunity to finally ask myself what I actually wanted.Not what looked good on paper. Not what paid the bills. Not what someone else expected of me.I realized I wanted to build a life I didn't need a vacation from.So I traded endless meetings for mornings in the garden, homemade bread on the counter, learning new skills, and creating a place where women could gather around a table and experience those same simple joys.That's how The Gathering Circle was born.Today, The Gathering Circle is a place where women come together to learn practical homemaking skills, discover the joy of creating something with their own hands, and build genuine friendships along the way. From sourdough and canning to gardening, candles, homemade gifts, and seasonal workshops, every class is designed to help you leave feeling a little more confident than when you arrived.Whether you're looking to learn something new, meet like-minded women, or simply spend a few hours doing something that fills your cup instead of draining it, I'm so glad you're here.Welcome to The Gathering Circle.Pull up a chair - there's always room for one more.
