About this Event
What would it be like to connect with others without the usual small talk, social expectations, or pressure to be a certain way?
Join us for a two-hour evening of Authentic Relating — a series of guided interpersonal games that invite us to get curious, let down our masks, and discover what happens when we meet each other with openness and honesty.
We'll begin with lighthearted, playful activities that help everyone relax and get comfortable. As the evening unfolds, we'll move into deeper one-on-one connections and opportunities to share and be witnessed by the group. Along the way, there may be laughter, surprises, moments of vulnerability, and the simple pleasure of feeling genuinely seen and heard.
Authentic Relating isn't about being a better conversationalist or revealing more than you're comfortable sharing. It's about noticing what's happening within you, expressing yourself authentically, and listening to others with curiosity and compassion.
Our games are designed to create an atmosphere of trust, respect, and emotional safety. You're always welcome to participate at your own pace, honor your boundaries, and choose how much you want to share.
What to Expect
- Playful connection games that help us move beyond everyday conversation
- Meaningful one-on-one encounters that invite curiosity, honesty, and deeper listening
- Opportunities for group sharing and the experience of being seen and witnessed
- A welcoming, nonjudgmental environment where your choices and boundaries are respected
Who Is This For?
This evening is for anyone who:
- Longs for more genuine and meaningful connections
- Enjoys exploring themselves through interactions with others
- Is curious about vulnerability, authenticity, and the art of listening
- Wants to experience something a little different from the usual social gathering
No previous experience is necessary. Whether this is your first Authentic Relating event or you've been practicing for years, there's always something new to discover.
Come with an open mind, a little curiosity, and a willingness to play. You might leave with new connections, fresh insights, and a fuller heart.
If cost is a barrier, please reach out to me. I don't want finances to prevent anyone from participating.
