2026-10-06 17:30 - 19:30 | For Her Community Space, 8546 Broadway, Suite 255, San Antonio, TX, 78217, United States
Art provides an accessible way for participants to express thoughts and emotions that may be difficult to communicate through words. Mindful Making is designed to support both mental well-being and community building by creating a welcoming, low-pressure space where participants can step away from the stress of their daily responsibilities and focus on being present through creativity. By combining individual creative time with group reflection, Mindful Making helps participants feel more comfortable expressing themselves, connecting with others, and building a sense of belonging within their community.
The Inner and Outer Self activity invites participants to explore the difference between how they present themselves to others and how they experience themselves internally. Using art, participants create an image that represents their outer self alongside symbols, colors, or imagery that reflect their inner thoughts, feelings, values, and experiences. The activity encourages self-expression, self-awareness, and reflection in a safe and creative way.
Childcare is available for this event.
Sydney Wiggins is a full-time college student with experience in art education. She is passionate about art as a tool for self-expression and reflection; thereby creating spaces that support mental well-being and meaningful community connections.

#IamRemarkable
2026-10-12 17:30 - 19:00 | For Her Community Space, 8546 Broadway, Suite 255, San Antonio, TX, 78217, United States
#IAmRemarkable is a global movement that helps people, especially women and underrepresented groups, feel confident celebrating their achievements at work and in life. Many of us hold back from sharing our successes because of cultural expectations, imposter syndrome, or a fear of sounding like we are bragging. In this interactive 90-minute session, we gently break down those barriers. Grounded in the idea that sharing factual successes is not bragging, participants reflect on their accomplishments and practice speaking them out loud using the core phrase, “I am remarkable because…” Attendees leave with real-world habits to speak up for themselves and lift up the people around them.

Her Table: Parent Cafe (Calm the Stress Down)
2026-12-16 17:00 - 18:30 | For Her Community Space, 8546 Broadway, Suite 255, San Antonio, TX, 78217, United States
For Her is excited to partner with Child Safe for our Parent Cafe Series. Caregivers and their partners are invited to engage in conversations with other parents as we explore how to be more present for our families while also taking the time to take better care of ourselves.
Parent Cafe Series pt 4: Calm the Stress Down
At this fourth and last session of this series, join our conversation to take a “temperature check” of your stress level and learn ways to better recognize and manage your stress level. The holidays can be stressful. If we’re not careful, our worries can take the joy out of the season.
