The First Pour · A Happy Hour for Connection · Nov 12
WHAT WE DO
We create a place to go. We make showing up alone normal. We give women simple tools to connect more meaningfully. And we keep creating opportunities to come back.
1 in 2
Adult women report experiencing loneliness daily, highlighting a critical need for consistent social connection.
We are facing a crisis of connection.
Loneliness and social isolation are affecting health, well-being, and quality of life across the country. PS Society is building a community-based response or "social prescription" for women through recurring gatherings, practical connection tools, and local chapters designed to make meaningful connection easier to find and easier to sustain.
The Need
29%
Increased risk of heart disease, 32% increased risk of stroke, 26% increased risk of premature death due to poor social connection.
15/day
Lacking sufficient social connection can carry a mortality risk comparable to smoking up to 15 cigarettes per day.
HOW IT WORKS
Simple on Purpose
Connection shouldn't be complicated, so we built PS Society to be simple. Gather monthly through PS Connects. Come together yearly at Balance & Bloom. Grow through local chapters that all follow the same playbook. One model, repeated with care in every community we reach.
Every Month
PS Connects
Our monthly gatherings provide a safe space for women to share, listen, build meaningful friendships, and learn connection tools in a supportive environment.
Every Year
Balance & Bloom
A financially accessible retreat centered on connection and wellness, designed to help women step away, recharge, and return feeling restored, supported and inspired.
