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.
"We exchanged 3 words of affirmation of each other. We answered three questions about ourselves. The highlight is thinking about which 3 words I liked most of him, and the affirmation I felt hearing what he said about me. I feel seen."
Loong, who attended an event in London UK with his partner.
"We’ve known each other for about 15 years but the questions brought up things in a way that we don’t generally get to talk to each other like. Especially the 3 words to describe each other." - Flo, who attended an event in Melbourne Australia with a friend.
This event is for you if:
You like meaningful conversations

You just read the description and are curious to see what it’s all about
"Be open minded - come with your memories and leave with a laugh having added to what you know." - Dielle, who attended an event in Toronto Canada with a friend.
