Lotus Ascend Bloom Together Inaugural Event
$30.00

What would it feel like to put down the bags for a morning?

Bloom Together is your invitation to find out.

The Bloom Together experience is an intimate morning gathering for women who have spent years carrying everyone else-being the strong one, the dependable one, the one everyone turns to-and who are ready to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and enjoy the simple gift of being in community with other women.

A Beautiful Setting for a Meaningful Morning

This event, intentionally created for just 12 women, is designed to allow for a more personal and peaceful experience. Conveniently located in a serene, nature-filled setting in Cooksville, Maryland, Bloom Together offers a welcome change of pace from the everyday. You will be surrounded by natural beauty in a space with access to a garden/patio area that may become part of your Bloom Bar experience, weather permitting.

Inside, we've created a warm and intentional environment designed to help you slow down, connect, reflect and simply be.

Whether we step outside to explore the blooms or bring the Bloom Bar indoors, the intention remains the same: to give you space to pause and reconnect with yourself.

🌿 A moment to pause — Guided breathing and intentional reflection to help you settle into the morning.

🌸 The Bloom Bar — Choose meaningful blooms and create a bouquet representing what you want to invite more of into your life.

💕 Connection & conversation — An intimate gathering designed for genuine connection, laughter, reflection, and community.

✍🏽 Space to reflect — Journaling and quiet moments to consider what you're making room for in this season of your life.

  • Arrive, grab a refreshment, receive your name tag, and take a moment to settle into the space. Ease into the morning and connect casually with the women joining you.

  • Connection is a core part of the morning. We'll officially begin with a warm welcome, learn a little about what inspired Lotus Ascend, followed by brief introductions all around. We'll also share a few things to know before we begin and create the foundation for a comfortable, welcoming experience.

  • A guided moment to relax your mind, settle into the space and create a sense of calm. Through intentional breathing and gentle reflection, we'll slow down and create space for the morning ahead. (guests will remain seated for this pause)

  • We'll introduce the Bloom Bar experience and the invitation behind it: choosing what you'd like to invite more of into your life. Weather permitting, we'll step outside and make our way into the garden to begin selecting our blooms.

  • Take your time exploring the blooms and selecting flowers that speak to you. There is no right or wrong choice—simply choose what resonates with you and what you'd like your bouquet to represent.

    Bring your selections together and create a bouquet that is uniquely yours. As you arrange, enjoy conversation, laughter, creativity, and the simple pleasure of making something beautiful.

  • A quiet moment to pause again and reflect on what surfaced during the experience. Use your journal to consider what you're making room for, what you're ready to nurture, or what you'd like to carry forward.

  • We'll come together to share reflections, stories, or simply what our blooms represent. Sharing is always optional—this is a space to listen, connect, and be present with one another.

  • We'll close the morning with gratitude and one final moment of reflection before you head out with your bouquet, your Lotus Love gift bags, and hopefully a little more space within yourself.

Your Morning at Bloom Together

The morning is intentionally unhurried. While we have a planned flow, there will be space to linger, connect, and simply enjoy the experience.

Meet your Host

Hi, I'm Kimberly!

I'm the founder of Lotus Ascend and a firm believer that sometimes we all need permission to put down the bags we've been carrying and make room for ourselves.

I created Lotus Ascend as a collection of experiences with the goal of creating simple invitations to pause, reconnect, laugh, reflect, and enjoy being in community with other women. This is the first curated Lotus Ascend experience, and I'm so excited to share it with you.
