Amigas Coffee Talk with Bonnie Sen
What Architecture Taught Me About Building a Life
Thursday, April 30, 2026 | 9:00 – 10:30 AM | Side Pony Coffee & Cocktails

What if you approached your life the same way an architect approaches a building: with intention, clarity, and purpose?

Join us for an intimate morning conversation with architect and entrepreneur Bonnie Sen, Founder of BARI Architecture, hosted by Samantha Sarine, Founder of Amigas Means Friends. Together, they’ll explore how three core architectural principles can guide the way we design our lives, careers, and passions.

Through personal stories from her journey, from corporate architecture to founding her own practice, Bonnie will illustrate how understanding your environment, defining your purpose, and honoring your core values can shape both the spaces you build and the life you create.

What You’ll Learn

• ?? Harmony with Context: How your environment shapes your growth, How to audit the spaces, people, and routines that surround you
• ?? Form Follows Function: How to align your life’s “structure” with your priorities, How to design work, family, and personal projects to support your goals
• ?? Structural Honesty: How values and non-negotiables form the backbone of a fulfilling life, Why authenticity and alignment create stronger foundations for work and life

Who Should Join

• Women seeking clarity, purpose, and intentional life design
• Entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals balancing work, passions, and personal growth
• Those navigating change, career transitions, or new life chapters
• Women who value thoughtful conversation, reflection, and meaningful connection
