Uni-Tea in Santa Barbara, California
What the Heart Knows Book Tour

Mara works with organizations to create “Chari-Tea” events. To celebrate this year’s “Heart Day,” Mara worked with Unity Shoppe in Santa Barbara to co-create a truly extraordinary event that would raise funds, raise awareness, celebrate an ingenious charity, and create an elegant, fun gathering.

Held at the historic La Casa Nichita, the beautifully catered tea allowed guests to tour the famous home, enjoy delectable treats, hear a brief talk by Unity Shoppe’s Director as well as Mara’s keynote address “Unity of Head and Heart.”
