Out beyond the ideas wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a table named after an old woman from ancient Italian folklore known for delivering children gifts every Epiphany Eve, I’ll meet you there —Dina—
Hi! My name is Dina Gregory. I’m a fourth generation Italian American writer, speaker, teacher, and the creator of La Befana’s Table-a substack newsletter, podcast, & community.
La Befana’s Table was born out of a desire for a place both ancient and new where the whole of me can encounter the whole of you. A place to share the stories of our personal journeys, learn from each other’s experiences, participate in soul nourishing conversations & experiences. And have some laughs.
What to Expect:
Soul nourishing conversations with dear friends, artists, poets, culture makers, wise elders, community weavers, and everyday people who are utilizing their gifts to make the world a more beautiful place
A companion letter including prompts for conversation & contemplation
Access to our comment section & private chat where you can connect with me & friends of La Befana’s Table in between letters & episodes.
Invitations to join both free & paid community offerings, experiences, workshops, & retreats both virtually & IRL
