NextTribe: Members Meet In Real Life!
Also: I'm Going To Umbria!

Mars here! I’m enjoying my new role as Manager for NextTribe’s Local Communities. Please let me know if you’d like help getting events started in your city. We’re a community of travelers, both globally and locally. Lots happening on both fronts. Make sure you scroll all the way down for upcoming local events!
Upcoming NextTribe Trips
Umbria
I’m beyond excited that I’m going on the Umbria trip in 2025! Past travelers have RAVED about the beauty of the hill top villa, surrounding region, and the meaningful creative exercises.
I’ve never been to Italy before, and I’m thrilled that it’s a combination of exploring historic sites as well as the guided creative work. (I love creative retreats!) I was literally the first to sign up! NextTribe is now releasing the Umbria trip to members before we promote it to the general public.
Just Released to Members:
Morocco
There was such a demand that NextTribe has added a second Morocco trip. Who hasn’t dreamed of going to Marrakesh? Early bird pricing until June 30th, so don’t delay!
Local Events
I’m posting local events on Tribe Social. Please join me on that platform! We’ll make sure there are active groups in the cities where several of you live. Let me know if you don’t see your city group on there, and I’ll help you create one.
If you haven’t set up your Tribe Social account yet, you just set up a username and password and you’re in! You have to use the email address you used to sign up for membership or it won’t recognize you! You can check your membership status, upgrade to Lifetime if you’d like, and edit/change which credit card you use. Eventually, you’ll be able to see your trips on there, too, but not quite yet.
Logging in will also give you a chance to add a photo or avatar and join the party on TribeSocial. It’s all working now (finally!) and while there are a lot of conversations happening about our trips, there are also local communities set up in Groups. Play around with it, and feel free to reach out to [email protected] if you have questions or suggestions.
Austin
Austin is continuing the tradition of our twice-a-month coffee hangouts! In addition, our local members are organizing pool parties, dance parties, movie dates, happy hours and inviting each other to local events. Fun, friendly and sometimes spontaneous. Just how we like it!

You know the drill. Lots of coffee and easy-going friendly chitchat.

At Nancy’s condo. Bring your own drinks and sharable munchies.
Houston

No need to RSVP! Just show up and bring a friend!

SAVE THE DATE for a Austin/Houston/Galveston Road Trip Oct 4-6.
SAVE THE DATE! Katherine Allen in Houston is working on a road trip to Galveston for any Texas NextTriber who wants to join in! This isn’t an official NextTribe trip. It’s a “road trip” where we’ll each make our own hotel reservations, and carpool with friends. Katherine will set up a happy hour so we can meet each other, as well as a Art Walk gallery hop and maybe even a reading by a local woman author. Stay tuned for details.
Los Angeles
Our first Southern California Sunday Salon will be held in a private home in Thousand Oaks. Sunday, June 30 from 2-4PM. Guest Lesley Migdali, a licensed acupuncturist, will explain and demonstrate the Tapas acupressure technique, an energy healing modality that has helped with everything from IBS to sleep problems.

NextTribe is co-sponsoring a Happy Women Dinner in Los Angeles on June 27. Two amazing women authors + dinner with cool NextTribe-y women. Only a few tickets remaining. See invite above and email [email protected] or [email protected] to register ASAP if you’d like to go.
I’ll be back in two weeks!
