In this special cohort of the Art of Difficult Conversations, we will focus on dialogues we can lean into in the most important relationships in our lives.

Over 8 weeks of group sessions, and optional "Fight Labs", we will explore preparing for and gracefully navigating the landscapes of potentially life changing talks with our closest family, friends, and partners.

What holds us back?

What gets in our way?

How can we transform obstacles to connection into the foundations for brilliant futures?

The Main Events

Main sessions

Our main classes will occur from 6-8 p.m. Central Time on Thursdays, starting May 7th, and run every week for 8 weeks.

• May 7th
  May 14th
  May 21st
  May 28th

You will be added to the calendar event for the classes and receive a Zoom link by May 1st. If that invitation doesn't come through, let us know.

All calls will be recorded. There is no requirement to make every session. These are a service to you, not to us.

Practice Labs

Every week, we will also run a practice lab.

These are smaller groups where you can bring difficult situations that you are struggling with with your life, and we will work on them in the group. Weeks will alternate between a Fight Lab open only to students of this course, where we will workshop 1:1 conversations using course content; and a Facilitation Fear Lab open also to select members of other Authentic Revolution training programs, where we will workshop difficult situations occurring in facilitation or leadership.

Labs will happen at 11 a.m. – 12 p.m. Central Time on Fridays and run for an hour. Here's the schedule:

• May 10th - Facilitation Fear Lab
  May 17th - Fight Lab

  June 7th - Facilitation Fear Lab
  June 14th - Fight Lab

Facilitation Fear Labs will continue every other Friday after the course completes, as a free community offering.
