Authentic Relating Games: Speaking Your Truth Over the Holidays

The holiday season often brings together diverse perspectives and opinions, which can sometimes lead to tense or uncomfortable conversations. We will play with various exercises and discussions designed to enhance your communication skills and foster understanding in these challenging situations.

During this event, you will learn practical techniques to navigate sensitive topics, manage emotions, and maintain healthy boundaries while engaging in conversations with family members. Through interactive exercises and group discussions, you will gain a deeper understanding of your own communication patterns and develop strategies to express yourself authentically while respecting others' viewpoints.

Whether you're looking to improve your listening skills, express yourself more effectively, or simply seeking support and guidance for challenging conversations, this Authentic Relating event is designed to provide a safe and supportive space for personal growth and connection.

Please note that this event is open to individuals of all backgrounds and experiences. No prior knowledge or experience in Authentic Relating is required. We look forward to welcoming you to this enriching event!
