There’s something powerful that happens when people choose to show up. Not just for themselves, but for each other. In a world that moves fast and keeps things surface level, what we’re building inside The Group is something different. It’s real. It’s human. It’s a space where conversations go deeper, where walls come down, and where people are reminded that they’re not alone in whatever they’re carrying. Every time we gather, something shifts. Ideas are born. Friendships are formed. Businesses grow. But more than anything, people feel seen. That’s the heartbeat of all of this. And now… we’ve taken that heartbeat and given it a home beyond the room. We’ve officially launched The Group Portal. A place where connection doesn’t end when the event does. Where you can see every upcoming gathering, stay in the loop with announcements, and have real access to the people in this community. A place designed to help you build deeper relationships, create opportunities, and stay aligned with everything happening inside The Group. It’s more than a platform. It’s the infrastructure behind a movement. The tools are now in your hands. The connections are waiting. The opportunity is real. If you’ve been feeling the pull to be around something genuine, something supportive, something bigger than yourself… this is your moment. Come experience it. Come feel it. Come build with us. Join the community and get connected at This is The Group. Thank you to our amazing videographer @revereimagery Thank you to @bpgrover @foxpointfarms for the support. Thank you to all of our members, especially the kind words from @karmafreeliving @musetobeyou @radical_enlightenment @kevin_russell_guide

Thank you, @gregoryrussellbenedikt @thedaretodreampodcast for having me on your podcast! Watching you grow from a long time group member into such an inspiring voice is a true honor. Sharing the story behind my passion project @thegroupsd reminds me why I started it. My goal is to be the support I once needed and to empower those who haven’t had that chance. Our community isn’t just a gathering; it’s a movement that transforms lives. I’m excited for what the future holds and ready to keep lifting each other up. Stay inspired and keep believing in the power of community. #Gratitude #PassionProject #CommunityLove #Inspiration

Huge thank you to the incredible team at the Inn at Moonlight Beach for supporting this experience and for believing in community the same way we do.

Most people walk into @thegroupsd thinking it’s a networking event. Then they realize it’s something completely different. I intentionally start with music. I intentionally get people dancing, moving, laughing, and letting their guard down because the mission has never just been business. The mission is unity. For one moment, none of the labels matter. Politics don’t matter. Religion doesn’t matter. Status doesn’t matter. Titles don’t matter. What matters is the realization that underneath it all, we are human beings craving connection, purpose, understanding, and community. Music and dance have a way of dissolving tension. They remind us of something we forget in everyday life. We are all connected. The same heartbeat lives inside every single one of us. That’s why strangers become friends here. That’s why people feel safe here. That’s why so many say they’ve never experienced anything like this before. The Group was built to remind people that community still exists. And when people come together with open hearts, incredible things happen. Thank you again to @foxpointfarms And thank you to our Ambassador of fun @melaniecathleenscott for facilitating the fun!

There is something really powerful about a community coming together during one of life’s most beautiful moments. As many of you know, we love and appreciate @dr_lisel not just for what she does, but for who she is. She has poured so much love, wisdom, healing, and support into so many people’s lives and now it’s our turn to show up for her as she prepares to welcome her beautiful baby into the world. On Friday, May 15th at Feel Good Friday at Fox Point Farms, we’re asking our community to bring a box of diapers to help celebrate and support this new chapter for her family. Also bring an extra diaper package to donate to @solutionsforchange . And a personal thank you to all the participating sponsors that believe in giving back. A raffle prize will be given sponsored by our beautiful sponsors for people that brig diapers. @bubsnaturals @littlefoxcupsandcones @jojoscreamery @ethos_market . We’re also partnering with Solutions For Change so that every act of generosity not only supports Dr. Lisel, but also helps local mothers and families in need throughout our community. This is what The Group is all about. Showing up. Supporting each other. Celebrating life together. Creating impact through love, connection, and community. Every box of diapers is more than a donation. It’s a reminder that no mother should feel alone and that a strong community can change lives in the simplest but most meaningful ways. Bring your diapers to Feel Good Friday at 9AM on 5/15 and receive a raffle ticket for some amazing prizes from incredible local businesses who continue to support the movement. Let’s show Dr. Lisel and local families just how powerful this community really is. ❤️

Feel Good Friday @thegroupsd by @junejitsu is a stellar way to start the day connecting intentionally with kindred spirits, sharing our gifts and projects, & symbiotically supporting each other… because we are all better when we come together to collaborate and co-create a brighter future ✨🕺🏼⚡️💖💫🚀 Gratitude to everyone who showed up to raise the vibe & to @foxpointfarms for graciously hosting 🙏🌱🦊 “The Group was founded by June An, with a bold vision: to create a “non-networking” networking community, a space where personal connections come first. From its inception, The Group aimed to transcend traditional networking, focusing instead on fostering genuine relationships that would lead to collective growth and success. We believed that in prioritizing real, meaningful connections, we could build a community where professionals and business owners could truly flourish together.”
