In the final post of this three blog series, coaches Jen Louden, Rachelle Mee-Chapman and Ronna Detrick interview each other about their membership sites –The Comfort Cafe, Flock, and A Conversational Space . Which one is the right fit for your soulcare needs? Join us and find your place of support and inspiration.
Today: what makes one plant an online community; our hopes for YOU; and the Trio Collection of Proverbs Cards, our gift to you. Thanks for being here!
Q: What was the creative urge behind creating your community? How does it help you grow personally and creatively?
Ronna: Truth be told, my creative urge came from the two of you! You both showed me the models for online community and once I saw and experienced them, I knew it was what I both wanted for others and needed for myself. I am constantly growing because of it. Each post I write or conversation I have shapes and forms me. And the desire to be offering quality product and experience drives me creatively every single day. I’m deeply grateful.
Jen: I create better with a purpose. The Cafe gives me a purpose; and the women use what I give them, and talk about it, so there is this rich steamy transformative energy that we build together, that makes me crazy with ideas and good creative ju-ju. The give and take sparks so much for me.
Rachelle: I had taken some Ecourses, and enjoyed them. But I always felt a letdown when the class ended and the students dispersed. I wanted to create an on-going community that could provide the soulcare I and others need to keep doing creative, soulful work. I thrive in community. “There ain’t nowhere to go but together!”
Q: What is your greatest desire for your people? Your greatest wish?
Ronna: My greatest desire for the women in A Conversational Space is that they find a place in which they can explore, strengthen, and boldly tell their own truth; that they can ask their deepest questions and know they will be heard, supported, and understood; that they can wrestle with the realities of their lives and know that they are not alone. If, through their engagement here they were encouraged to live their lives more boldly and beautifully outside of the virtual world and in their day-to-day world, I would be humbled and thrilled.
Jen: To spend as much time in the field beyond right doing and wrong doing. To enjoy every moment of life as it is right now.
Rachelle: That no one would feel alone.

A Conversation Space (and Renegade Conversations) gave me the courage to tell my truth, face my demons, and move past. I have found some amazing female friends, something I thought I’d never have. I have found that I’m not alone, not crazy, and in the best of company. June was a month of running and going everywhere thus little interaction on my part in The Space. I greatly missed my posse of women. Now I’m back. Reading, talking, sharing. Blessing and being blessed.
Mmmm, thanks Angie. This makes me take a deep breath and smile.
Since joining in on Renegade Conversations and A Conversational Space I am a different person. I feel like I have permission to be myself. I am strengthened by the wonderful women here. I feel like I have found true friends.
I truly miss it when I am away and actually get grumpy when I haven’t spent my “conversation” time (that’s what I call it!). This space means as much to me as the f2f conversations I have with good friends. I <3 it all!
