The Reset Club: Reflect, Reset & Reconnect at Orange Ora Cafe, Meva
1st November 2026: 10am – 12pm
As the year begins to slow down, The Reset Club invites you to pause, step away from the busyness and create space to reflect on the year so far. This is a chance to celebrate how far you’ve come, acknowledge the moments that shaped you, and reconnect with what you want more of as you move into the quieter months.
Through guided journalling, creative exercises and vision board activities, you’ll be gently supported to reflect, reset and create intentions for the season ahead.
This isn’t about New Year resolutions or becoming someone new – it’s about slowing down, recognising your growth and taking time for yourself.
Set in a warm, welcoming coastal-inspired space, this relaxed afternoon is designed to leave you feeling calm, inspired and connected.
Whether you come alone or with a friend, you’ll be welcomed into a supportive space.
£42.50 per person (with Dreckly Wild Women)
