About 8 Minute Classes
In May of 2019, we began – what was to be – a one week series of classes to help women have a summer full of purpose, intention, and renewal. The classes were held on Instagram, and were received with such enthusiasm and gratitude, we decided to hold an additional week of classes. When we found out that next series of classes was also found to be extremely helpful, we decided again to keep it going. Now we are here weeks later and have held a series of classes and workshops for women every week. Each week, as we bring on more speakers and topics, we are energized by the learning and connection happening among the women who are a part of our community.
Our original intent was to help women have a more purposeful summer… That has since spread to a goal to help women have more purposeful seasons (and years!) with their families. An added bonus is the community that comes when women share with the goal of helping and uplifting one another. We have seen and heard from some pretty amazing women in this space, and hope to continue that as we grow.
Here at 8 Minute Classes you will find continue education classes of all types – everything from fun family tips, seasonal craft and food ideas, mom hacks, as well as deeper stories of depression, loss, overcoming, and hope. We seek to blend everyday ideas, seasonal fun, and practical tips, with the deep and heartfelt experiences.
Welcome to our community at 8 Minute Classes! As moderators, we are working to create a space where we are all imperfect yet striving to become the best versions of ourselves. This is a place where we can learn, teach, and share together.
If you have questions, speaker requests, topic ideas, or just want to say hi, we’d love to hear from you over on our Contact page.
