    Jules Bistro has invited FEW to join them in raising up Women at their event! Lift up the ladies. 

    We will be across the street like last year in the Regency space on the first floor.  The event is a little different this year so see details on what to bring. We encourage you to bring a guest. 

    This year, we're also accepting donations of the these items...
    (combined value of at least $25, please)

    - Full-sized Personal Care Products (body wash, deodorant, lotion)
    - Full-sized Shampoo/Conditioner (for BIPOC/textured/curly hair)
    - Feminine Hygiene Products (tampons, liners, pad, cups)
    - Hard-Soled Slippers (all sizes)
    - Pajamas/Robes (all sizes)

    Throughout March and into April, Jules' Bistro — with support from other Central Minnesota businesses — will be campaigning for {NEW} bras and creating opportunities for conversation among men and women who wish to encourage, inspire and lift up the ladies in our community.

    We'll raise our glasses in celebration of each other, the incredible time we've spent together and the amazing work of Anna Marie's Alliance. There will be smiles. There may be tears. There will definitely be food and drinks!

    You'll enjoy charcuterie, cheese and a plethora of delightfully different bites as we serve up handcrafted cocktails and unique white and red wine selections from Rolling Forks Vineyards in Glenwood, MN.

    We bet you're wondering about the cost. Thanks to our generous partners, your food and drinks at this social hour are { } . Don’t agonize over size and style. Women come in all shapes and sizes and with all sorts of preferences around a necessary undergarment that can make us feel playful, empowered, beautiful, supported, protected. Buy a bra that works for you…and it will most definitely work for someone else.

    Do you ever wonder exactly how technology and the ubiquitous nature of smartphones is changing our relationships as humans? Is our love affair with devices significantly affecting our empathy and ability to see, hear, and authentically connect with each other? Should we be worried, or do the data suggest the current digital age is not that different from other moments in history when communication patterns changed? In this engaging presentation, relationship social scientist Dr. Carol Bruess (rhymes with peace) will provide answers and practical ideas about how to assess – and perhaps change – your own relationship to technology, thus improving connections in family, marriage, friendship, communities, the workplace—and even with strangers.

    Debra Dewitz presents Empowered to live a life without Regret.

    Deb is a social worker and family therapist who worked with children and families for many years. She then began teaching social work, passing on what she has learned from her clients and her own life, to the next generation of social workers. She firmly believes that we are each given “learning moments” throughout our lifetime. If we can step away from our view of the world to learn about someone else’s, or even to change our own, this new way of seeing the world will enrich us.

    Mariah Prussia will present Define the Fight: Through years of life altering experiences, stemming from abuse, financial strain, single parenting and building a business, Mariah struggled with defining her fight.

    It wasn’t until Mariah defined her fight, that she was able to define her mission, which is to be on a platform to create a positive ripple effect of change in the masses. Sometimes resisting change, is more challenging then change itself. It’s time for you to Define your fight!

    Presented by Erin Gonzalez.

    Now more than ever we are surrounded with nutrition information. How is it possible that despite all of this information most people are confused as to how to feed and take care of their bodies?

    We live in a society that values small bodies and women have been conformed to believe that their worth is tied to their body.

    In an attempt to achieve this self- worth women are hyper focused on dieting and losing weight. Unfortunately in doing so most women are getting further from their goal of taking care of themselves, and in the process decreasing their self-confidence and self-trust.

    In this interactive workshop Erin will challenge much of what we believe to be true about nutrition, give you tools you can being today to build attunement with your bodies internal wisdom and build your confidence to free yourself from societal views of our bodies so you can live the big vibrant life you were made to live!
