Want to Connect With HWC Members In Your City?
Quick Note: Now, that I’m back from my travels around the world, in search of the secret to a happy marriage, I’ll return to blogging on my usual schedule instead of 5 days a week as I’ve done since June. So now you can find me here every Monday, Wednesday and Friday with a fresh new post just for you.
———–
While I was travelling, and meeting Happy Wives Club members around the world, the greatest (yet
accidental) thing happened. In order to assemble HWC members in various cities, I created get-togethers through a site called MeetUp.com. I’ve used them before to find Spanish immersion groups in my area.
What I didn’t realize when I was setting up the group page for the Philippines, Fiji, and Mauritius, was the site would use my local Los Angeles address as the location. So although the events were being held in other countries, when people looking in the Los Angeles area for groups to connect with who have similar interests, they would be lead to the Happy Wives Club meetup page.
Immediately, I began getting notes from other happily married women living within a few miles from me (some within a few blocks) wanting to get together to chat about love, life and our wonderful marriages. Although people have asked me in the past if I plan to host HWC conferences (which I don’t), I’ve never thought about encouraging members of this club who live or work near each other to possibly form local chapters or simply get together to meet new people.
I was prompted to think about this again when I received a new email from Meetup.com that said, “Sabrina just joined Happy Wives Club!” There are now 11 women in my community who have joined a group I created by mistake. But now I’m intrigued and cautiously excited about the thought of taking this club offline (of course, also keeping it online) and meeting people right in my backyard.
What about you? Would you be interested in meeting other HWC members that live in your community or a nearby city? My time in the Philippines, with the women of this club who were all meeting each other for the first time, was one of the highlights of my trip. Simply amazing.
Question: So what do you think? Is this a good idea? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
Until tomorrow…make it a great day!
