Topic: “After the Dress Comes Off” – The real “stuff” no one prepares you for in marriage. Join us for an all women panel discussion on marriage and all the stuff (good and bad) that comes with it(family, finances, romance, career, submission etc.)  The subject has already created quite a stir within our network. I can assure you that this Gathering won’t be for the faint at heart. So brace yourselves now for impact. If you’re ready to dig in, get raw, real and open, clear your calendar, grab your girlfriends and be there on Friday, September 18^th.
