What do I really need here?

Conflicts revolve around all sorts of little things, especially when living situations get tight. The socks in the living room, the dishes in the sink, or the coffee cup on the counter. Is it really about the socks, or something deeper? Here we will peel the onion to get to the core of our needs.

KS IH 075Itzel Hayward and Kathy Simon
Speaking Up As An Ally: How to Keep People at the Table for Authentic Conversations About Race

When people we know say things that we hear as racist, sexist, homophobic, or otherwise oppressive, responding can be difficult. Using skill-building and practices, we will explore how to respond in ways that the other person is more likely to hear. You will walk away feeling more prepared to have conversations with those who see things differently from you.

JF KM 075Kathleen Macferran and Jared Finkelstein
Do the Right Thing! Move Beyond “Right and Wrong” and into CHOICE

Tea or No Tea? Requests, Agreements, and Consent

In our grab-and-go, fast-paced culture it is easy to forget to check in with one another before acting. Rather than imposing specific strategies or agendas, NVC helps us create a culture of dialogue where all voices are valued. Come learn ways to inspire cooperation and build relationships of trust where everyone’s values are equally respected.

Grief Ceremony: For All My Relations

Native traditions around the world see grieving in community as an essential practice for honouring, healing, restoring and releasing relationships.

LS MM 075Mika Maniwa and Leonie Smith
Why Am I Cringing? And What Can I Do About It?

Why do we cringe? Perhaps we've been asked to convey our feelings and our needs but we have a sense that this authentic expression is not welcome. How do we handle this? In this session, you are invited to come and explore the power dynamics of cringing and its alternatives. 

EQ MK 075Miki Kashtan and Emma Quayle
Purpose, Intimacy, and Choice: Creating Relationships that Defy Patriarchy

Patriarchal conditioning creates a deep groove of narratives about relationships. This is an introduction to a different pathway that questions relational dyads and rests on a deep alignment of purpose and values that we can have with many people. It offers deep intimacy without the need for sexuality and one-on-one focus. Come explore how we can re-groove the pathway from separation to interdependence.  

 mina mo 075Mina Mo
Aesthetic Communication

Sometimes, non-verbal forms of communication can be much richer than verbal ones. Here we will all share our life stories in an artistic way through movement, drawing, music, and poetry. No professional art experience necessary. Please bring your painting supplies, drawing paper, and musical instruments if you have them! 

mitch miyagawa 75Mitch Miyagawa

Love in a Time of Climate Change

Climate change does not exist in isolation. It happens in concert with anxiety, depression, and societal fragmentation – all indicators of trauma, imbalance, and separation. In this session, we will acquaint ourselves with the wisdom of making room for the discomforts we would prefer to avoid and explore what it could mean to ourselves and to humanity to be deeply connected to life in a time such as ours. 

ranjitha jeurkar 075Ranjitha Jeurkar
Speak Up, Or Let Go?

Have you ever been told to choose your "battles" wisely? If yes, have you wondered how to make that choice? How do you know when it's better to speak up, or just let it go? In this session, we will take some time to explore these questions using the self-empathy process and focusing on needs.
