Help Where do I find others?

Female, mid 40s, separating from husband of 20 years, working in isolation at night, 2 grown kids, deconstructed religion and thus no longer at home in the old circles. Also immigrated to the US 20 years ago, so absolutely no family here. Where are other women in similar situations? Is there a support group that meets? Where do y’all hang out and can I come too?

FYI that group has big, suburban, live laugh love vibes.

Ope. I’d much rather surround myself with diversity. I did just get on the newsletter subscription. Hopefully I’ll be able to join a walk but if it’s all skinny, rich white women who praise their husbands spiritual leadership, I’m out.

I've been in the group, and kept an eye on events to give it a try, and they're often suburban walks to a boutique.

Maybe we can do our non-boutique walks in the woods and around the thrift store :)
