1. What are Groups?
Groups are a great way to take your Connect conversations and relationships even further. Use them to inspire healthy habits and provide support to other members with similar interests and on common paths. We’ve created groups based on the following:
- Food (e.g., foodies, meal prep, vegan, vegetarian)
- Identity (e.g.,Moms, bros, brides & grooms, students)
- Wellness Journey (e.g., newbies, maintaining, turtle club, goal setting)
- Activity (e.g., running, yoga, walking, gym)
- Mindset (e.g., gratitude, mindfulness, my why, back on track)
- Hobbies (e.g., pets, traveling, crafts, reading)
