September’s theme is CURRENT, chosen by our Columbia chapter, illustrated by Bethanie Irons, presented by Adobe.
A current can be the live wire you grab hold of, or the river you let carry you. This month we’re asking what’s surging in you right now.
Nicole Halper joins us to talk about it. She’s the founder of Proofed & Proven, a Tulsa-based editorial agency that helps authors, researchers and nonprofits turn rough ideas into published books and thought leadership. She’s also a poet and essayist whose work amplifies overlooked voices. She built her business on one belief: publishing is not a zero-sum game.
Friday, September 18 · 8:30am · Gradient Innovation Hub, 12 N Cheyenne Ave Doors 8:30, talk at 9, out by 10. Coffee’s on us.

Join us Friday, August 20th. Our theme for August is NAKHLAH. It was chosen by our Khobar chapter in Saudi Arabia and illustrated by Rahaf Al-Badri.

Nakhlah نخلة (pronounced NAKH·lah) is an Arabic word meaning “palm.”

When a storm hits, palm trees bend with the wind while other trees break and fall.

So, in times of adversity, look to the palm for inspiration to sustain your creative practice. The spongy fibers of its trunk are not rigid; they flex instead of snapping. The palm also depends on its network of roots spread wide under the ground; just as we all need a network of people supporting us as we grow.

Our Khobar chapter had this to say about the significance of this month’s theme:

“This theme is a tribute to resilience, generosity, and rooted creativity — symbolized by one of the most iconic trees in Arab culture. The palm thrives in tough conditions — just like creativity under pressure. The date palm is deeply woven into Saudi identity, found on the national emblem and in everyday life — from food to folklore.”

Watch this video from our Khobar chapter for more on what NAKHLAH means to them.

Because flexibility and resilience gives you the strength to bring more beauty into the world.

How many of you have had a near-death experience?

And if your life fractured in an instant… would you know how to let the light in?

This month, we’re talking about EMBER—the quiet strength that stays lit even after everything shifts.

Our next speaker, Carrie Corcoran, knows this firsthand. What started as a moment of confusion turned into a life-altering experience. But what didn’t go out was her light.

She chose to heal. She chose to forgive herself. And she turned that experience into something powerful.

Now she’s a keynote speaker, resilience coach, and founder of the Unbreakable Light movement—helping others reconnect with their own strength.

If you’ve ever been through something that changed you… this one’s for you.

Come through.

What ember is still glowing in you?

Our theme for March is LOCAL. It was chosen by our Santos chapter in Brazil and illustrated by Simone Matias.

Local (pronounced lo·cal) in Portuguese means “being a resident or native to a particular area.”

Our Santos chapter had this to say about the significance of this month’s theme:

“We are proud to be from Santos. The feeling of loving the city but sometimes moving away. The benefits of belonging somewhere.”

Watch this video from our Santos chapter for more on what local means to them.

So, how does where you’re from define who you are? How do different spaces foster that sense of connection? How can we develop and strengthen bonds with the people around us?

It’s time to remind ourselves that community happens in neighborhoods not just on screens.
