Awkward Conversations

A series of artistic interventions to help groups and individuals practice having difficult conversations.

Fridays

12-12:50pm Eastern

I was raised not to speak about politics or religion at the dinner table. Paired with a directive not to “air my dirty laundry” outside the home, the message was clear: vulnerability is not ok.

How’s that working for me? It’s not.

You? I didn’t think so.

And, It doesn’t work for society.

I’m offering us all an opportunity to embrace our collective awkward vulnerability. Yup.

This is a chance to come together and try to overcome the social directives we swallowed and our primal fears around being vulnerable.

I’ll have a new topic the first week of each month. That first conversation is open to anyone, and free for all. But, these conversations are not a free for all. I will facilitate our discussion to keep things respectful and flowing. Three follow up conversations will follow, open to anyone who wants to practice/pursue the topic further.

I’d love to hear your ideas for topics: https://forms.gle/J9qgcC2FKpEdMHv3A
