On Spot Hosting

...See more Calling all our On-spot Sharing Circle hosts!  Thanks to @Jenna for some tech assistance, I've made some adjustments to our sign-up schedule. This means that any on-spot host (or assigned host if you wish to host extra sessions) can put your own name down to host a spot without making a regular commitment.   The column on the left will continue to be for the assigned hosts that run regular weekly sessions, whilst the column on the right is editable and can be used to sign up for any available spots. Please ensure to add the date you wish to host so it's clear and I will aim to refresh that column weekly.  Please make changes responsibly and only sign up for a session if you have passed the hosting training and respect the sessions that have assigned hosts already.  Check out the new sign-up sheet [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NL2vmymJlZJEekFZRX1cSON0XRvgBKNdB0ayOYUJS2k/edit?gid=0#gid=0] Tagging our hosting team: @AquaSylph @Bubbles2025 @CalmRosebud @daydreammemories @disneywoman @fruityPond7887 @innateJoy9602 @InsightfulPhoenix @kindhug676 @lovelight1211 @TheGeraldExperience03 @ShadowFaerie @compassionaterainbow64 @Ruben470 @magicpawsoffuture  If you're interested in becoming an on-spot host you can fill out the application form here [https://tinyurl.com/yyzf464w] or reach out to @Lou73 Happy to answer any questions!

Listening to someone else's troubles seems like such a simple thing, but it can really be so powerful and meaningful to the person. Thank you again!
Very understanding
When I was in distress and was looking for a listener in a community room, Lou73, offered her helping ears to me. She listened to all of my issues patiently and actively, understood it without any judgements & gave lots of empathy , compassion and good suggestions. She didn't show any rush to end the chat and talked to me for more than an hour. I felt better and satisfied after the conversation with Lou. Thanks a lot for being a wonderful, sweet listener and an amazing person. Stay blessed.
Lou helped give me the courage to host a Sharing Circle session- they encouraged me and gave me the resources to do it right, and for that, I’m super thankful!
