When you have a clear vision of what you want\, it becomes easier to get into the mindset that will allow you to achieve it. Vision boards serve as a daily reminder of your goals and where you want to be in life.

SUMMARY:Orange County Chapter Meeting - Holiday Mingle: Building Connections & The Power of SOS
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”” css_params=””] \nHOSTED BY: Mariya Pesheva\nTOPIC: Holiday Mingle: Building Connections & The Power of SOS\nWHERE: 1818 S State College Blvd Anaheim CA 92806\nWHEN: Friday December 19\, 2025 – 12:30PM-2:00PM PST\n\n\nWhat is an S.O.S. Circle?\n\n\n\n\nAn S.O.S. Circle is more than just a meeting—it’s a transformative experience where women come together to uplift and empower each other. Attendees have the opportunity to forge deep connections\, dispel feelings of isolation\, and emerge stronger\, more resilient\, and united in their journey towards personal and professional fulfillment. \nFor many women\, celebrating successes can be challenging due to societal expectations and fear of being perceived as boastful. Likewise\, sharing struggles may feel daunting as it requires vulnerability and the fear of judgment. \nIn a guided open forum setting\, participants are invited to bravely share their triumphs and challenges\, knowing that they are among a community of women who understand and empathize. \nThe acronym S.O.S. stands for “Share Our Successes” or “Share Our Struggles” and embodies the core purpose of the circle. This offers a safe space for women to bravely share their struggles and vulnerabilities\, recognizing that doing so is not a sign of weakness but of strength and resilience. \n\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=”” css_params=””] \nContact Orange County’s Chapter Leader Directly:\nMariya Pesheva\nPhone: 310-633-1722 \nEmail: mariapesheva33@gmail.com[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text] \nAll chapter meetings are FREE for anyone to attend.  YES!  You read that right. \n\n(We just ask that if a chapter meeting is at a restaurant location\, that you purchase a meal to support the location that is so graciously hosting our event.
