4️⃣ Sat 20 Feb: Loving Across Cultures
Each session stands on its own, so come to one or come to all!
Living in Saigon can be rich, stimulating, and sometimes disorienting. We adapt, we build new relationships, we look for our place between cultures... and it can take a while to find the words for what we're going through.
That's why we're so happy to welcome The Growing Circle, a monthly gathering, facilitated by psychotherapist Arnaud Guibert, to take care of your inner world, have honest conversations, and connect with others.
✨ First workshop this November: SELF-DOUBT
Have you ever felt you weren't good enough, legitimate enough, or strong enough? Even when things seem to be going well, doubt can creep in: an inner critic, a harsh view of yourself, a feeling of being "less than."
This isn't a flaw. But "I doubt myself" can mean different things. Self-esteem and self-confidence are words we often use loosely, and understanding the difference can change how we treat ourselves.
🧭 WHAT WE'LL EXPLORE TOGETHER
🔹 What these words really mean to you
🔹 Situations from your own life and what they bring up for you
🔹 How a small action can strengthen self-esteem and self-confidence
🔹 A personal grounding phrase to take away
🤝 HOW IT WORKS
Short individual exercises, plus conversations in pairs or groups of three. We start by agreeing on a clear group framework: confidentiality, voluntary participation, respectful and nonjudgmental listening, and the option to step back at any time. You decide how much you share.
A chance to ease the pressure, breathe, and reconnect with your sense of worth, at your own pace 🌿
🌏 Open to all adults: expats, locals, people with bicultural backgrounds, and anyone who'd like to join the conversation.
💬 Good to know: The Growing Circle is neither a therapy program nor a therapy group. It is a space to reflect, share, and grow together.
