Navigating Difficult Conversations

Practical training course for navigating
conflict and connection

Saturday June 20th 10am – 5pm

Sunday June 21st 10am – 2pm

In a time of rising tension, polarisation and distressing global events, many people are struggling to stay connected, feel safe, and speak openly. Based on Marshall B Rosenberg’s principles of ‘Nonviolent Communication’, this workshop is designed to help navigate difference without losing yourself, or others.

The workshop will enable you to:

  • Build skills and confidence to hold intensely difficult conversations: Learn practical tools to stay calm, grounded, and constructive even when emotions run high.
  • Maintain connection with those with opposing views: Explore ways to preserve relationships without avoiding important differences.
  • Maintain a sense of safety and belonging: Develop strategies to protect your wellbeing while staying engaged in challenging spaces.
  • Keep your voice in the face of perceived hostility or racial tension: Practice expressing yourself clearly and confidently—even when it feels risky.
  • Reduce division in workplaces and places of study: Understand how to interrupt polarisation and foster more inclusive environments.
