Conversations That Matter
The Practice of Possibility
Let’s regenerate the authentic heart of being human
We invite you to a unique, ongoing opportunity to experience the power and potential of connected circle-based practices, open dialogue, and a caring, generative community. Together, we’ll open a pathway towards healing our fractured world and building our collective capacity to thrive amidst change. Together we'll practice the art of possibility!
In a safe, online space, through engaging questions, open dialogue, and reflective practices, we will explore and gain insight into our individual and collective potential, authentic power, and inherent wisdom. You’ll connect and engage with like-hearted souls on a path to unity, truth, goodness, and beauty.
If you have a longing or calling to be part of a community where you have a felt-sense of belonging, where you feel truly seen, heard, safe, and supported, then reach out and join with us in the practice of possibility.
More things are possible together!
What you'll experience
This is a highly interactive and experiential program. You won't see much in the way of presentations. Instead, through powerful questions, connections, open dialogue and reflections, we will learn, integrate, inspire, and gain new insights together.
Almost everything will come in the form of an invitation. From the invitation, you get to decide your level of participation and the richness of your experience. As in life, what you get out of this experience, will be what you put into it. The possibilities are yours to own. If you show up in presence and fully engage in the conversations and the opportunities to deeply connect with yourself and others, we expect you will experience a felt sense of:
Belonging, connection, friendship and trust
Being respected, safe, seen, heard and supported
Being stretched into new levels of awareness
Hope, purpose and expanded possibilities
The power and potential of conscious community
Is this right for you?
You'll know if this is right for you. It may come as an inner 'knowing' or 'calling' to take this journey with us. You might notice a deep resonance with the possibility that small groups of coherent, passionate people can have a significant impact on our world. You might sense that some of your own longings may be fulfilled here.
The Cohering Community experience is about moving from longing to landing! Instead of craving to find belonging in a world that works for all, we are inviting you to step into the possibilities and own your part in co-creating it now! Together, in support of each other, we'll live into the realization of our longings, and co-create a better world, one caring circle at a time.
This program may not be for you (yet) if you are deeply lost in the problems of the world, and unwilling or unable to imagine the possibilities. While we all get lost from time to time in blaming others or playing the victim, this experience is about living into the future we long for, rather than dwelling on the past, or trying to fix each other. That said, in our circle we will practice holding each other wherever we are at, with empathy, care, compassion, and, of course, possibility!
You are invited to join us for the Whole Journey
Our journey through the conversations is highly emergent and generative. Often, we focus on the six essential community conversations as outlined in Peter Block’s book, “Community – The Structure of Belonging.” However, in this complex world, we are finding that many other important conversations are arising and we are adding these to the mix. We also host open Bohmian-style Dialogue sessions based on the work of physicist David Bohm, where anything can arise!
While you can drop in at any time for one session or more, we invite you to commit to an ongoing journey with us. In our experience, the more sessions you attend, the deeper you will connect with others, and the more you will learn, grow and feel like you belong.
Think of this as an oasis or sanctuary that you can come back to again and again to regenerate, recharge, have engaging conversations, gain new insight, and meet like-hearted souls. We anticipate that you will experience profound synchronicity and possibilities emerging out of the InterBeing!
As an extension of your experience here, we invite you to:
Join our digital community, which includes discussion forums, resources and other events.
Create, cohere and host your own circles with the support of our Liberating Leadership Lab.
Join The Conversation
You'll find our current conversation schedule below. You can register for one or more conversations, but to experience the full power and possibility of these conversations as well as a sense of belonging in a community, we encourage you to commit to attending as many conversations as you can. From experience, we think you'll feel at home here! You are welcome to attend free of charge or offer a donation upon registration.

In a world asking so much of us, how do we discern what is truly ours to respond to—and what is not?
