The Issue
Are you tired of being asked these common small talk questions?
“Where are you from?”
“What do you do for work?”
“The weather has been quite awful this week, hasn’t it?”
You’re probably also using them yourself because you don’t know what else you can ask.
The problem is that people were not taught how to connect with each other well. Also, for some people, going to social gatherings with the aim of meeting new people feels uncomfortable or awkward. Especially when we are no longer in environments where we see the same people repeatedly, such as in school or college. There must be a better way to connect!
A Solution
On this background, the Co-Creating Connection format was created. It’s a unique format for meaningful social gatherings. We want strangers to become friends through authentic conversations and playful group activities.
These structured events are guided by a facilitator, but all participants co-create the experience together. Participants share what true connection actually means for them, what it feels like, and how it can be attained. They all choose together from a rich menu of guided prompts, exercises, and games, and then experiment and explore connection together.
