ERG programming in Houston

A creative ERG event people can join without performing

Storytelling Through Soapmaking gives your employee community a shared activity, with reflection available and public sharing optional.

Your members make soap together while conversation develops around the table. The experience feels purposeful without asking anyone to speak for an identity or disclose a personal story.

60 minutes • 4–40 participants • Houston onsite • Turnkey facilitation

The quick answer

What belongs on your planning sheet?

These are the core details Elena needs before adding the workshop to a shortlist.

60 minutes

A complete facilitated experience that fits into the workday.

4–40 people

Designed for small leadership groups and larger workplace teams.

Houston onsite

Available for offices and suitable event venues in the Houston area.

Why this format fits

Give the group something meaningful to do together.

ERG programming often has to support community while remaining appropriate for the workplace. Soapmaking gives everyone a clear activity and lets conversation happen without placing anyone on the spot.

Shared activity

The soapmaking process gives everyone a clear way into the room.

Optional reflection

Prompts support conversation, while each person decides what to share.

Professional fit

The format is structured for workplace programming and guided from start to finish.

A strong fit for Women’s Month, employee communities, career programs, and cultural observances.

What happens

Gather. Mix. Pour.

There is a simple rhythm, so participants know what comes next.

Designed for participation

Connection without forced vulnerability.

Some participants will talk across the table. Others will focus on scent, color, and the process in front of them. Both are valid ways to participate. Your ERG can offer an experience with heart without asking members to disclose more than they want to share.

The activity is shared. The amount each person says remains their choice.

Meet your facilitator

Hi, I’m Priscilla.

I’m Priscilla M. Mensah, founder of Super Power Soap and creator of Storytelling Through Soapmaking.

My background in technology and education shapes how I run a room. I pay attention to what happens while people make: who starts talking, who relaxes, and who becomes absorbed in the process.

Soap gives the group a shared task. Story gives the experience meaning.
