• How conversation dynamics shift when true listening takes place

Through live demonstrations with audience volunteers using pre-drafted scenarios, you'll witness how conversation dynamics transform with genuine listening, all while learning practical skills.

Connection Experience with Talia Rosenblum (45 minutes) Founder of Third Space Experiences facilitates structured conversations where you immediately apply your new listening skills to create authentic connections with others. Through two rounds of rotating small groups, you'll experience:

• Curated conversation prompts designed to move beyond small talk to meaningful reflection

• Moving beyond surface-level interaction to connection you'll actually remember

• Presence without the distraction of devices

Cocktail Hour (30 minutes) Put your new skills into practice during informal mingling and conversation.

FAQ

• Confidentiality - What's shared stays shared

  Everything shared in our experience remains confidential. We ask all participants to honor "what's shared here, stays here." Take the skills and insights with you, but personal stories shared by others stay private. This creates safety for authentic sharing.

• How do Yondr pouches work?

  You'll secure your phone in a fabric pouch that locks magnetically upon arrival. You keep it with you, but can't access it during the experience. Facilitators can unlock for emergencies. At the end, you unlock at our station and regain full access.

• What if I'm shy or introverted?

  Perfect! The structured prompts and professional facilitation make connection comfortable for all personality types. No one's put on the spot, and you share only what feels right. Many introverts find guided conversations easier than small talk.

• What if sensitive topics come up?

  Both facilitators maintain a safe, respectful environment. You control what you share - there's no pressure to go deeper than feels comfortable. Conversation prompts invite meaningful but appropriate sharing for this group setting.

• Can I attend alone?

  Yes! Most people attend solo. The entire experience is designed for meaningful connection with new people. By evening's end, you'll have connected with multiple participants in authentic ways.
