Drop In Connection
Drop in connection is a set time where availability is open to the public. You can come and talk, ask questions, or learn more about peer support options.
Details are shared in advance, including location and time. These are free, informal opportunities to connect without booking.
Olivia
I like that the drop in times are simple and flexible. They are announced on Facebook and happen in everyday places like the library, a coffee shop, the park, or the beach. It is not a formal session. It is just a block of time where you can show up, say hello, check in, talk briefly with someone who understands binge eating and recovery, and be pointed in the right direction to start.
What To Expect
Drop In connections are conversational and informal. There is no requirement to register for services.
You can use this time to:
Ask questions about binge eating recovery
Learn about available peer support services
Clarify the difference between courses, support sessions, and groups
Work out whether Life in Person is the right fit for you
Connect without committing to a program

Why Offer Drop In
Getting support is not always straightforward. Cost, timing, and not knowing where to start can make it harder to reach out.
Drop In creates a simple way to connect without any of that. No booking, no commitment. Just a set time and place where you can show up, ask questions, and understand what is available.
