Deeper Discussions - Exploring Taboos in the Parkπ²π³π
Details
Some conversations we've been quietly trained to avoid our whole lives. Death, money, shame, desire etc. the beliefs we'd never say out loud at a dinner party. We open the door to a few of them. Gently, on your terms, in good company. πͺβ¨
This is an honest event, so come ready to think openly, listen generously, and share as much or as little as feels right for you. π¬
How to get the best out of this event?
β’ Respect: While we explore cultures, this event is not a space for debating but about learning and understanding. No judgement on how different cultures and beliefs shape peopleβs lives. ππ
β’ Be open: We aim to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for members from all cultures. You can help by keeping an open mind. π€π§
β’ Share: Feel free to share your own cultural traditions. Everyoneβs perspective is valued, and all stories are welcome. π£οΈπ
Why taboos? π‘
Every culture builds walls around certain topics. Some of those walls keep us safe. Others are just inherited habits that nobody ever thought to question. And when we can't talk about something, it tends to grow heavier in the dark. π
Tonight we bring a few of those things into the light, together, and see what happens when we do.
Who is it for? π
- You're a regular at our Deeper or Deepest Conversations events (take a look at our past events to know more)
- You're curious about the things people don't usually say out loud
- You want connection that gets past everyone's polished version of themselves
- You can hold space for others as kindly as you'd want it held for you
- You're open, warm, and ready to listen as much as you share π±
What's in it for you? π
- A rare afternoon of honesty in a world built on small talk ποΈ
- The quiet relief of saying something you've never said, and being met with warmth
- Real bonds with the people who choose to go there alongside you π
- A fresh look at the walls we all carry, and a sense of which ones you might quietly put down
- The reminder that you were never the only one π€
The things we don't talk about are usually the things we most need to. Come and talk about them, with people who get it. π
We really hope to see you there! π
