It's CoCo time! Join us for coffee and conversations on Fridays

Update: We have moved CoCo Time to Fridays as Wednesdays seemed difficult for many R Voicers.
It's been almost 6 months since the launch of R Voice. We've had some lovely conversations with so many of you on the platform and it feels like family. Now that we've interacted with you so closely, we really want to meet you more often. Which is why we've come up with great way to make the connection even more personal. Starting next week, we will have a Community Coffee & Conversations Time (or CoCo Time as we prefer to call it) every Wednesday! Since it's the middle of the week, we're keeping it short and sweet - no registrations, no signups - just drop in to meet other R Voicers and have some fun, breezy conversations that will leave you refreshed and refueled for the rest of the week! 😃
Time has often been an issue for our events, since we have members spread across the globe. But this time, we've figured out a way to include everybody: We're going to alternate between Asia and US friendly time zones each week. Next week's session is more conducive to EU and Asia, while the following week's session will be more suited for our friends in the US time zones.

See you on Wednesday!

This sounds like a great idea! Wednesday mornings I have a recurring commitment every week but looking forward to one that I can join for a chat with my tea (because I can't do coffee!) ;)

Will miss you @Shruti Turner.☹️ Perhaps you can make it to the next one? It's at 1:00 pm UTC - keeping in mind R Voicers who'd be joining from US-friendly time zones.

Our first session of CoCo Time didn't quite go as planned because of some technical issues. ☹️ If you tried to join the call and couldn't, we're really sorry. We're working on fixing the issues and hope to see you at the next one.

Hey @Gustavo Arluna, we've changed it to Fridays actually because that's when more people are in the mood for some fun. The next one is scheduled for Nov 19th and this time it's going to be special - the winners of the Meet and Greet Campaign will be our special guests! Please join if you can - it will be fun to catch up 😊
Check out the details here:
If this time doesn't work for you, we have yet another session on Nov 26th. Here are the details:
See you at CoCo Time!

@Gustavo Arluna so glad to hear you'll be joining CoCo Time. I think it'll be wonderful to finally meet you face-to-face. Virtually, of course 😃

Oh, @Andrea Hayward I am so shy! 🙈
Can I use a mask during CoCo time? 😂
Joking. I already know your face because you are famous in R Voice, but we will have the opportunity to interact each other through a videocall, that's great! 🥳👏👏

Hi @suzanne reinhardt. I'm SO happy to see you here on R Voice, and hope that you're having a great start to the New Year! 🙂
Yes, we're still doing these CoCo Time catch-ups. The last one happened just before Christmas break. We're still locking in our events calendar for the next couple of months. But I'm sure CoCo Time sessions are on the plan. Will keep you posted and hope you can attend :)
