Notes to Self - Journaling Workshop

Off Worque Presents: Notes to Self
✨ A Journaling + Conversation Club on Boundaries Before the Holidays ✨

Join us on Wednesday, October 16th at Any Day Now Café in Washington, D.C. for a cozy, intentional evening of writing, reflection, and community.

The holiday season can bring joy but also stress, obligations, and blurred boundaries. This gathering is about pausing before the year-end rush to check in with yourself and set boundaries that protect your peace.

We’ll start the night with coffee/matcha tea from Any Day Now’s menu and a short grounding session to reset. Then, we’ll move into a with a sticky note workshop where you’ll write “notes to self” short, powerful reminders about the boundaries you want to hold onto during the holidays.

We’ll wrap with an open conversation about balance, saying “no” with love, and creating space for rest.

This is for anyone ready to prioritize themselves while navigating a busy season. Come as you are, and leave with affirmations, tools, and reminders you can literally stick somewhere visible.
