What area? Community colleges, adult school, and yes I know you are 29 BUT senior centers may welcome some young blood into their learning circles. And You/tube is loaded with instructional videos… to get you started.
AND please tell me… where would I look for attorneys looking to do high profile pro bono projects either as a firm or solo?

I’m in PB! Sorry I’m new to the area so I don’t know I’m sorry.

Try a woobles kit for crocheting - a good way to get started. I tried one and enjoyed it

Ever think of learning an instrument?

Yes, I have! Unfortunately, feels more like a chore not fun ☹️

I think they might have groups at the public library (not sure where it is in PB). I got into knitting, I'm not too good at it but I like the outcome.

Michaels and Joann's have monthly classes. I took a cake decorating class (gained 10 lbs so beware) that really helped me with stress management at the time.
I've also taken stained glass classes, quilting, and watercolor from my local art gallery (in Fallbrook-North County) I am not good at any art but I use it as a way to access part of my brain that is neglected otherwise.

We have a free knitting meetup second Friday of the month in South Park-mostly late 20s to late 30 professionals. Dm if you’d like details-it’s a public event but a rad core group that shows up 🧶

If you are looking for pottery classes Clayat or San Diego Craft Collective are both excellent and not too far!

Does anyone have any mock trial programs they’ve participated in outside of their firms that they would recommend?

So, this is a little awkward, but I recently moved to SD for a fresh start, and honestly, I love this city. My problem is I have been more of a homebody since I moved here and I'm a little intimidated to go out and meet people because I don't feel like I fit in here. I am overweight and this city is full of active, and attractive people. I guess I am wondering what my experience would be if I got out more? I feel like people look at me when I'm in public because I stand out due to my size.
