The aim of this series of sessions is to create a safe space in community with one another to engage in healing conversations around topics of import to our individual and collective well-being. Topics are intended to address issues common to the human experience in these trying times. The hope is that these sessions invite introspection and dialogue to deepen connection and solidarity, and inspire hope, healing and transformation.
Topic 1: Building community through embracing diversity and connecting with the ‘other’
Topic 2: Centering joy in our lives during trying times
Topic 3: Embracing vulnerability for building connection and belonging
How it Works:
Self introductions: We each briefly introduce ourselves
Inspirational quotes: We each select a relevant, meaningful quote and take turns reading them aloud
Small group conversations: In breakout rooms, groups engage in conversation around the topic of the day, using guiding questions to help us
Big group sharing: We come back together and each group shares one or two meaningful insights from their conversations, followed by optional individual sharing of takeaways for going forward.
