The Soft Life Collective

A Seat at the Table

A Soft Life Collective Experience

Saturday, October 10

12:00 PM – 4:00 PM

The Columbus Museum | The Wright Room

Welcome to the Table

Today is about more than taking a seat. It is about creating space for honest conversations, meaningful connection, wellness, sisterhood, and the freedom to choose softness in the way we care for ourselves and move through our lives.

Come as you are.

Take what you need.

Pour into someone else.

Choose softness.

Capacity • Care • Compassion

A Message from the Curator

“Thank you for taking your seat at the table. I hope today reminds you that softness is a choice, and that you get to create a version of The Soft Life that feels good, aligns with your capacity, and honors your care, compassion, and joy.”

With love,

Melody Laney
