As the crisp air begins to settle in and the days grow shorter, fall presents itself as a season of change and reflection. It's a natural time to turn inward, reassess where we are, and set intentions for the months ahead. Whether you’re feeling stuck, in a rut, or simply seeking more meaningful ways to connect with yourself and others, this is the perfect moment to pause, reset, and realign.
The Power of Intentions: Why They Matter
Intentions are more than just goals; they are heartfelt, guiding principles that help shape our actions and attitudes. Unlike resolutions, which often focus on achieving specific outcomes, intentions remind us of how we want to feel, live, and show up in the world. As we transition into fall, setting intentions can be a powerful way to break free from any lingering feelings of stagnation and reconnect with our purpose.
But how do we set intentions that are not only meaningful but also rooted in a sense of community?
Getting Unstuck: Moving Forward with Purpose
It’s easy to get caught in the routine of everyday life, feeling like you’re spinning your wheels without moving forward. If you’ve been feeling stuck, remember that you’re not alone. Many of us experience this—especially as seasons change and life feels a bit uncertain. Here are some simple yet impactful steps to help you get out of that rut and start setting intentions with purpose:
Reflect on What’s Holding You Back: Take a moment to identify what's keeping you stuck. Is it fear, self-doubt, or simply a lack of direction? Write it down, acknowledge it, and know that it’s okay to feel this way.
Visualize Your Ideal Self: Close your eyes and picture the version of yourself that feels fulfilled, joyful, and connected. How does she spend her time? Who is she surrounded by? Let this vision guide your intentions.
Focus on Feelings, Not Just Actions: Instead of setting rigid goals, consider how you want to feel. Energized, connected, calm? Let these feelings drive your intentions.
Create Community-Driven Intentions: One of the most fulfilling ways to get unstuck is by finding your tribe. At Cincy Girls Who, we believe in the power of community—reimagining how women create connections and show up for each other. Make an intention to attend a meetup, engage in our group chat, or simply reach out to someone new. Your next friend could be waiting just around the corner!
Start Small but Start Now: Setting an intention doesn’t have to be grand. Even the smallest step, like joining a community event or reaching out to someone in the group chat, can create a ripple effect of positive change.
Finding Community: The Heartbeat of Cincy Girls Who
At Cincy Girls Who, our mission is to reimagine the way women create community and support each other.

This fall, we invite you to step outside your comfort zone and discover the beauty of connection.
Our group chat is a space to find new friends, share ideas, and uplift one another. It’s more than just messages—it’s a community where women come together, share their stories, and show up for each other in meaningful ways.

Set Your Fall Intention with Us
As you set your intentions for fall, think about how you can incorporate community into your journey. Here are a few intentions that align with our mission and can inspire your next steps:
“I intend to seek out connections that lift me up and allow me to do the same for others.” Join us at our next event, meet new people, and allow yourself to be seen and heard.
“I intend to reimagine the way I show up for myself and my community.” Whether it's engaging more in our group chat or attending one of our wellness meetups, let this season be about rediscovering your place in the community.
“I intend to embrace new beginnings and welcome change with an open heart.” Fall is a time of transformation. Let go of what no longer serves you and make space for new experiences and friendships.
