The Ripple Effect of Kindness

The Ripple Effect of Kindness meets at The Kathy Castor Centre for Counseling and Wellness on Friday, October 23, from 10 AM to 12 PM. It's a support group for women aged 60 and over, and this session focuses on kindness from a few different angles: how it affects other people, how it shapes our communities, and what it does for us personally. The group looks at how simple acts of kindness in the past, present, and future create a ripple effect that reaches further than we might realize.

The format is straightforward. Participants meet in a safe, welcoming space to share their own stories and feel heard, and to reflect on their friendships and the support systems they've built around them. It's less of a formal presentation and more of a conversation among peers, with the goal of spending a couple of hours talking through something that usually stays in the background of our lives. The group is run by The Centre for Women and meets once a month, so if you find it's your kind of thing, there's a regular spot to come back to.

If you're looking for a place to connect with other women in the city and spend a morning talking about something positive, this is a good bet. It's free to attend, and the session runs for two hours. You'll find it at The Kathy Castor Centre for Counseling and Wellness, 105 West Sligh Avenue, Tampa, FL 33604, on Friday, October 23, from 10 AM to 12 PM.
