A surprising number of people assume Open Friday Coffee is some kind of webinar.
It isn’t.
There are no pitch decks.
No countdown timers telling you the offer disappears in fifteen minutes.
Instead, it’s a simple weekly gathering where thoughtful people sit down with a cup of coffee and spend an hour thinking together about rebuilding life in a calmer way.
How It Works
Each Friday begins with a short teaching.
Usually about ten or fifteen minutes.
Sometimes it’s a concept from one of my books.
Sometimes it’s a question someone asked the previous week.
And sometimes it’s simply a new way of looking at an old problem.
After that, the room opens for conversation.
Questions.
Stories.
Shared wisdom.
Every once in a while someone says something that quietly becomes the seed of a future chapter in the next book.
The Reading Community
Alongside the live conversation is a smaller reading community inside OFC Access+.
This is where the recordings live, along with my Placemat Procedures, reflections, and early drafts of ideas that are still evolving.
It’s also where many of the beta readers for my upcoming work gather.
Some people enjoy seeing ideas before they are polished.
And occasionally raising their hand to say,
“Janine… that chapter might need a little more work.”
Which is exactly the kind of feedback an author (like me) appreciates.
