We can all benefit from meaningful conversations with the people in our lives. Having chats that hold space to learn, express appreciation and develop empathy for one another.
Enter, a conversations event.
So what is a conversations event?
It’s a facilitated experience where you sit with the person you’re attending with, and engage in a few structured activities. You’ll reflect on what you like about each other, exchange stories from your lives, and reminisce with a few shared memories.
At the end of the event, you’ll feel closer to the person you’ve attended with.
“Great! I really enjoyed being able to share memories freely and openly. We talked a lot about memories of people and of ourselves. It felt like we deepened our relationship.”
