**We're hosting an evening of real conversation.** The kind that reminds you of who you really are, but rarely gets asked anymore. **What to Expect 🪑** You'll spend 1.5-2 hours with 20-30 people in a series of paired conversations. Here's how it works: * Throughout the evening, you'll rotate through conversations with different people 🔄 * Each pair gets 15 minutes and thoughtful questions to explore together 💭 * You'll both ask AND answer, equal time, full attention 👂 * After each round, you move on to someone new. You'll have 4-5 conversations total **Why We're Gathering 🌱** In a world where we're more "connected" than ever, genuine conversation has become surprisingly rare. This event isn't about networking, professional development, or problem-solving. It's about something simpler and more nourishing: the experience of truly listening and being heard. **Tickets:** $18, which covers drinks and the venue. We're not running this to make money, just to keep it small and cover costs. *(Early bird pricing may apply, see ticket options)*
