Empathy Circle

The Social Dialogue & Networking Group, is focused on socialising, intelligent dialogue, and networking!!

We explore topics such as social dynamics, philosophy, social equality, humanitarianism, family dynamics, community, relationships, AI, finances, business matters, and more (make a suggestion)... with the intentional goal of fostering new friendships and connections. You could even have the opportunity to make a topic presentation to the group (max. 4min.)-- wow!

Speed-friending happens at the beginning of each event!

(pls. note: this is not a dating group)

We also hold in-person and online "Empathy Circles", with a trained facilitator. How amazing!

Philosophy:

The Social Dialogue & Networking Group coined a term called: "Socialising Intelligently".

Socialising intelligently means intentionally increasing self-awareness whilst socialising. By creating the space for suspending-judgement and respecting differences, whilst observing our thoughts and emotions, we increase social intelligence.

It really is that simple!

The art of intelligent dialogue requires self-awareness, which you will have the opportunity to learn as you grow and expand this technique. You can then incorporate it into your life in dynamic ways, whether personal or in business.

Let's allow ourselves to be creative, intentional, and amazing!

Always look forward to seeing you:)

Guidelines:

Suspend judgement of self and others;

Be present... practice presence;

Hold whole-body awareness whilst socialising (the art is in the practice!);

All-Inclusive;

Any issues brought to the Host will remain confidential.

Liability Waiver:

All personal experiences and connections are each participant's own responsibility.

We wish you well on your authentic journey!
