Staying Curious and in Community When the Conversation is Tough: An Interactive Workshop

Many of us have the experience of being pulled into arguments that feel destructive to our relationships and not helpful to understanding others or feeling understood. There are dynamics – both internally and externally – that keep us stuck in those patterns. Luckily, there are tried and true methods to disrupt those patterns and create openings for conversations that promote understanding and maintain or build genuine connection. This interactive workshop will help you notice and disrupt destructive patterns and find ways to stay curious and connected in your community.

The workshop will be led by John Sarrouf, Co-Director of Essential Partners and a panelist at the Oct. 24 Community Conversation on civil discourse, and Maggie Herzig, Sr. Associate Emerita of Essential Partners. The workshop sponsored by the Lexington Lyceum Advocates.
