The Art of Feminine Sensuality with Dr. Amore
Jul 1
Happy Hour and Hivery Member Appreciation at Gravity Tavern
Jul 2
First Tuesday ArtWalk Featuring Forget-Me-Not
"When I arrived in the Bay Area 19 years ago, it was time to reinvent my life and career, and I pondered…'From all my different professional offerings, what is the one that has the potential to bring more joy, love, and fulfillment to more people?' Sensuality-sexuality was the answer!" —Dr. Amore⠀ ⠀ Throughout her career as an international sociologist, Dr. Amore lived in many countries and worked in different fields from the United Nations, Vogue Magazine in Paris, to a Multi-Cultural Center in Slovenia. She followed her curiosity and fascination for diverse sensual expressions which led her to study Tantric, Taoist, and others as a way to help people reconnect to their natural sensual essence, release painful patterns, and express the beauty and goodness of their sensuality.⠀ ⠀ JOIN THE HIVERY INSPIRATION CIRCLE THURSDAY, JUNE 27 • 12:30-1:45pm: Dr. Amore will explore 5 pathways to expand and share your beautiful feminine sensual arts and gifts to uplift your life and the world! Register here: TheHivery.com/Events⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #TheHivery #womendoingcoolstuff #womensupportingwomen #womenempowerment #divinefeminine #goddess

Today is Juneteenth! This marks the day that slavery ended in Texas—more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Let's turn our attention to the leaders of our generation who are showing our country the way through what Coretta Scott King called "the never ending process" of gaining freedom. The leaders we look towards include:⠀ Oprah Winfrey (@oprah) • Ava DuVernay (@ava) • Rachel Cargle (@rachel.cargle)⠀ ⠀ Thank you @rachel.cargle for the following suggestions on this momentous day (from Rachel's post today):⠀ 1. Invest time in researching this holiday and what it means to the African American community⠀ 2. Think critically and perhaps journal about the modern manifestations of enslavement and what else the African American community deserves to be free from and what role you play in either advancing or delaying that liberation in everyday life.⠀ 3. Make a donation to an African American led grassroots organization, an African American activist or an African American educator in support of their work.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #TheHivery #womendoingcoolstuff #juneteenth #womensupportingwomen

"We all know the feeling of being in a state of flow at work, when magic kicks in and time falls away. And in the same breath, we are all also familiar with the opposite feeling—that of being stuck, deep in the grind. I find that the best way for me to stay in a flow state is to do work that is aligned with my values."⠀ ⠀ Are you looking to establish values in your business? If so, here is a three-step process to get you started:⠀ Step #1: Clarify your values⠀ Step #2: Establish trust with your audience and colleagues to deliver on those values⠀ Step #3: Put your values into action⠀ ⠀ Check out The Hivery Virtual Membership this month for more details from Grace on exactly how to accomplish these three steps and live in a flow state in your work. ⠀ Not a Hivery Virtual Member yet? No worries! Join us for live-stream events, monthly inspiration, and a supportive community to cheer you every step of the way.
