A Squared Conversation is about having honest & vulnerable conversations with impactors in the Philadelphia Community that inspire me and others within, to show up for ourselves and one another authentically; to embrace who we are as a community unapologetically. We all have a unique story, and I want people to share theirs with confidence & grace.
Coffee, Connection and Community with Dr. Hava Rose
Welcome to the podcast, Dr. Hava Rose! ✨
On this episode, I sit down with Dr. Hava Rose, who approaches well-being holistically and creatively through journaling, meditation, and community connection.
A keynote speaker and founder of The Pause. Experience Agency, Dr. Hava Rose embodies mindfulness and meditation through immersive experiences for individuals and organizations—creating space for curiosity, self-discovery, and deeper connection to ourselves and one another.
She is also the founder of Morning Drip, a morning coffee social that brings people together in local communities to share fellowship, connection, and a positive intention for the day over a mutually shared love of coffee. ☕️
In our conversation, Hava and I discuss:
The Morning Drip coffee social
Building authentic connections within community
The practice of journaling and its positive impact
The Pause. Experience
The process of becoming who we’re truly meant to be through self-love and our relationships with others
A conversation about slowing down, becoming more intentional, and creating the space to connect with ourselves and with the people around us.
