Welcome, newcomers! Feeling nervous, excited, or maybe a bit of both? We get it! Joining a supportive community like 7 Cups can be a big step, and whether you're seeking guidance, offering empathy, or simply connecting with others, you've come to the right place.
I am excited to announce the ✨ official ✨ launch of Newbie Welcoming Sessions!
We will be serving both members and listeners!
Here’s what the member sessions will set out to do:
🌟 Offer guidance navigating the platform
🌟 Share resources
🌟 Answer questions
Regular members are welcome to offer support and ask questions too, but priority goes to new folks.
When - Biweekly
Adults: Tuesdays @ 4pm EST
Teens: Fridays @ 4pm EST
Where
New Member Welcome Room
Incentives for attending!
🏆 Cheers for participating!
🏆 An appreciation post for attendance!
If you are a new listener, there are welcome sessions for you too! These sessions are here to welcome new listeners to the community, but also to provide a space for listeners both new and experienced to have a chance to receive and share resources.
The listener sessions will be hosted in the New Listener Welcome Room every two weeks.
Adults: Tuesdays @ 6pm EST
Teens: Fridays @ 6pm EST
@wishfulWillow6962 is graciously leading this initiative! (If you'd like to help, consider applying for the Listener Discussions Team here.)
The aim is to serve one side each week. These will begin in March! Refer to the Events calendar for exact dates (see Notes section).

Hello Heather,
I am new on this platform and I just recently joined here a few days ago. I saw this post while scrolling down and exploring this app. If ever I am qualified, can I join on this session Heather? I would appreciate your response about this matter and hoping to hear from you soon.
Best regards,
Piaworks
@Piaworks
Welcome to 7 Cups! You can absolutely join the next one on the 19th! If you need help finding the room closer to the date, PM me! And if you have any questions in general you can always message me.
@Heather225 hey, thank you so much for this incredible opportunity. Could u send me the link to the welcome room? I’m a member and would like to join today
I'm very interested in participating in the Newbie Welcome Sessions and learning more about the 7 Cups community. Unfortunately, the scheduled times for the sessions coincide with my time zone, as it's right before midnight for me. Are there any plans for additional sessions at different times, or are there other alternatives available for listeners who can't attend the scheduled times? I'm looking forward to participating when it's possible for me. Thank you!
@healingsoul4892
what i am thinking to do since timezones are indeed the challenge we face as a global community is to host forum discussions. they'll act as AMAs and people can ask questions in them. how does this sound to you?
@Heather225 That sounds awesome! Forum discussions with AMA format would be perfect for people in different time zones to participate, Im exited to join in!
@healingsoul4892
yay! for now i created this main QnA thread to capture questions and guide newbies. please hop in at any time!
@Heather225 thanks😊
