Intentional Connection: Hate Small Talk? Come Play, Make & Connect
Details
The dating apps aren't working. The IRL meet-ups are draining - people you met aren't interested in connecting beyond the event.
Sick of the people who "do" relationships casually? So are we.
BeHeld is for those who believe friendships enhance your quality of life. Those who see the beauty in the bond between Rachel, Joey, Monica, Lisa and Chandler from Friends.
It's also for:
- the singles who want to find their person,
- the men looking for their bros and believe in self-development,
- the women who love hot girl walks, run clubs, puppies, sleepovers, brunch, and belt out to "Who Run the World?"
- the men or women who struggle with vulnerability but have an appetite for deeper connections.
Not for:
- anyone who cannot stand being vulnerable with strangers
- anyone who currently cannot initiate plans on a regular or reciprocal basis; - anyone who thinks ghosting is okay instead of communicating.
Event Outline:
1. Gamified Icebreaker: You are given a mission to find the person in the room with a unique trait or hidden talent. You will have to talk to everyone to get to the right person.
2. Group activity: Whether it's reverse charade or a card game, these activities are meant to break walls (figuratively) and have everyone laughing.
3. Swap: You'll bond with other people after the group activity using card prompts. You'll end up with one activity partner for the next activity.
4. Make something: Based on what you've learned about your partner, you'll make something that represents them. You'll leave with something made just for you, plus voice notes from the people who made your night.
You choose who you want to meet again, and we'll take care of the rest.
