Deeper Conversations

Do you crave deeper conversations? Would you like to learn more about each other than our names, jobs, and where we're from? Then this event is for you!

“Deeper Conversations” is a new monthly event series I'm planning to host, if there is enough interest. The idea is to gather in a comfortable, semi-quiet space to discuss a different theme each month. I will bring a curated list of conversation starter questions based on the card decks sold by popular YouTube channels that foster deep conversations, including Diary of a CEO, Yes Theory, and Eamon & Bec. These questions are vetted to be non-political and non-religious, while sparking meaningful, uplifting, or intellectual conversations. They will be roughly sequenced from lighter to deeper questions, so we can warm up and get to know each other before diving in. If you have any questions you'd like to ask the group, please DM them to the organizer, Danielle, in advance, so she can vet and work them into the list.

September's Theme: “The Best of A.I.“
Let's learn about each other, ourselves, and new ways to use Artificial Intelligence to improve our lives! We'll guide you to prompt your favorite AI to tell you insightful things about yourself (you'll choose what to share) and learn useful, funny, and creative ways others in our group have used AI. For example, you'll get to ask your AI to introduce you to us, while you tell us how right or wrong it is! There will also be questions for humans to answer, such as, "What’s something you’ve discovered you can do with AI that you think other people would find useful?"

Future conversation themes will be matched to the season when possible, such as "unsolved mysteries, mythical creatures, and conspiracies" for October Halloween season and "favorite memories" to kick off the holidays in November.

VENUE & HAPPY HOUR DEALS
I’ve carefully chosen Mad Dogs & Englishman‘s new restaurant for its cozy, small spaces conducive to semi-private conversations with up to 16 people (see my event photo). There’s no loud music and an excellent happy hour menu of food and drinks until 6pm, including craft cocktails, wine, beer, appetizers, pizza, burger with fries, and entrée salad. See their happy hour menu and full dinner menu.

Happy hour ends at 6:00 pm, so I recommend arriving at 5:30 to order, eat, and get the small talk out of the way before we dive into the deeper conversations. Please plan to be there by 6 pm for the main event.

IMPORTANT: As usual, RSVPs close the day before the event, so please make any changes before then. No-shows will be removed from the group. This includes people who cancel on the day of the event, after RSVPs close.
