About us
Many people reach a point in adult life where connection becomes harder than expected.
Friendships take more effort. Communities change.
And it’s not always obvious where we truly belong.
After growing a wonderful community in London, The Connection Circle is now expanding to Australia, New Zealand, and Asia-friendly time zones, making it easier to join these conversations on friendship, belonging, and connection from wherever you are.
The Connection Circle is a space to explore these questions together.
Through online conversations and workshops, we look at topics such as:
• Making friends as an adult
• Building meaningful relationships
• Finding community and belonging
• Navigating social transitions in your 30s and beyond
• Putting yourself out there in ways that feel authentic
Along the way, the aim is also to equip you with ideas, perspectives, and practical tools to help you build the kinds of connections and communities you want in your life.
Some events will be more reflective. Others more practical.
But the goal is always the same: helping people think more intentionally about connection and belonging.
About the different types of sessions
The Connection Circle includes two types of events:
Open sessions (free to attend)
These are more accessible and tend to have a larger number of participants. They explore different aspects of connection, belonging, and community in a more open format.
Guided workshops
These sessions run slightly longer and include more time for reflective exercises. With a smaller group, there is also more opportunity for interaction via the chat and engagement with the host.
The group is hosted by Tim Delure, a coach focusing on connection and belonging.
Everyone is welcome.

Why Connection Feels Harder in Adult Life and What to Do About It
·OnlineOnlineMany people reach a point in adult life where connection becomes harder than expected.
Friendships take more effort. Communities change. Life becomes busy and fragmented. And it’s not always obvious where we truly belong.
This online session is part of The Connection Circle, a space to explore questions of connection, belonging, and community in modern life.
In this 45-minute online workshop, we’ll explore why connection often becomes more difficult as we get older and how we can begin to approach it more intentionally.While friendships are often part of this conversation, connection can also relate to community, social belonging, romantic or family relationships, or simply feeling less alone in the world.
You’ll leave with a simple reflection exercise you can use to better understand your own “connection landscape”
and where you might want to focus your energy.
The session draws on ideas from The Reconnection Journey, a framework I use with coaching clients to help people move from disconnection to belonging.What to expect
The session will run for around 45 minutes and will include:
• a short introduction to the theme of connection in adult life
• a brief framework for thinking about connection more intentionally
• a simple reflective exercise you can try during the session
• optional time for questions or reflections at the endParticipation
You are very welcome to simply listen.
Don’t worry: you won’t be put on the spot. This is a space you can simply come into, listen, and reflect.
To keep things smooth given the size of the event, this will be run more like a live talk:
• participants will be on mute throughout the session
• you may be invited to share something in the chat at certain moments (optional), but otherwise I’ll keep the chat for the end so we can stay focused
• there will be a short Q&A at the end, where you can send in questions via the chatThere will be a few moments for reflection during the session, with prompts to help you think about your own experiences and take away something useful.
Cost
This session is free to attend.

Belonging: Finding Your People in Adult Life
·OnlineOnlineMany people want deeper connection on their lives. But an important question often remains unclear: where do we actually find our people?
In adult life, belonging rarely happens automatically. Communities change, people move, and many of us find ourselves navigating environments that don’t always feel like the right fit.
This session is part of The Connection Circle, a series of workshops exploring connection, belonging, and community in modern life.
In this 45-minute coaching-style session, we’ll explore the idea of belonging and the environments where meaningful relationships are most likely to grow.
During the session we’ll explore:
• what belonging actually feels like
• why some environments make connection easier than others
• how to recognise spaces where you’re more likely to find “your people”You’ll also be guided through a short reflective exercise to help you think about where belonging already exists in your life and where you might want to cultivate more of it.
The ideas in this session draw on The Reconnection Journey, a framework I use with coaching clients to help people move from disconnection to belonging.
