Authentic Conversations and Connection.

Seattle Public Library - Beacon Hill Branch - 2821 Beacon Ave S, Seattle, WA 98144, Seattle, WA, Seattle, WA, us - Seattle

4:00 PMSunday Assembly Seattle

In a world optimized for speed, small talk, and scrolling, many of us are quietly craving something deeper: real conversation, genuine presence, and meaningful human connection. **Authentic Conversations and Connections** is a thoughtfully facilitated Meetup designed to create exactly that. This gathering provides a **safe, respectful, and welcoming environment** where participants are guided into **deep, satisfying conversations** that go beyond surface-level exchanges. Using carefully crafted conversation prompts and simple facilitation, we help people move past “what do you do?” and into conversations that foster understanding, empathy, and authentic connection. You do not need to be an expert conversationalist or a natural extrovert. You simply need curiosity, openness, and a willingness to be present. **What to expect:** * A psychologically safe space grounded in confidentiality and mutual respect * Structured conversation prompts that invite reflection and meaningful sharing * Small-group and one-on-one conversations designed to encourage depth without pressure * Clear boundaries—no fixing, selling, debating, or performing * Opportunities to be heard, understood, and genuinely seen **What this is (and is not):** * This is not networking, therapy, or a debate forum * This is a space for honest dialogue, thoughtful listening, and human connection Whether you are feeling disconnected, seeking more meaningful relationships, or simply curious about what becomes possible when people slow down and speak honestly, this experience is designed to leave you feeling **grounded, connected, and energized**. Come as you are. Leave with deeper connections. ——————————- _This event is not hosted, sponsored, or endorsed by The Seattle Public Library.

Dry Run - Non Validation Seeking

Visible Coffee Roasters - Madison - 2739 E Madison St,, Seattle, WA, Seattle, WA, US - Seattle

6:30 PMDecent Social Skills

Note **2 changes** compared to previous events: 1. New Venue - **Visible Coffee Roosters on Madison** (not Ada's)**.** 2. **$5 - $10 suggested donation** to help cover venue rental. Let's practice freeing other people of our expectations. How do you feel when you get ignored, cut off, or invalidated? On the other hand, how does it feel when someone gets upset at you for not reacting the way you "should"? Both feel bad, but are opposite sides of the same coin - you can't get rid of one without getting rid of the other. What would happen if we let go of both? And what would we replace them with? Nobody owes you validation, and you aren't responsible for following their script. And both are easier said than done. In this session we will play with both sides of the coin. In the first half, we will practice letting go of validation seeking and the pressure that creates on others. In the second half, we will explore ways to detect and exit interactions where we are being cast into a role we didn't consent to. This is a "dry run" event. It's one of the first times we're hosting it. Expect some things to be bumpy or unrefined until we figure out the best format for this event. Feedback and suggestions are very welcome.

DATE CHANGE: July 25!!: Ladies Only Bonfire GasWorks Park!!

GasWorks Park, Seattle, WA - 2101 North Northlake Way, Seattle, WA, Seattle, WA, us - Seattle

7:00 PMSeattle Millennials and Gen Z

We have been talking about it since the picnic but its finally here: LADIES ONLY BONFIRE!! EDIT: I HAD TO CHANGE THE DATE. THIS IS STILL HAPPENING!! I'm doing it at GasWorks because as most of you know I am a night shift healthcare worker and I can NOT get to Golden Gardens to scout out a fire pit at 3pm I will probably die. I have had lots of success at GasWorks before so LET'S DO THIS. Some info: Please bring something if you can! No restrictions its not at my house so no worries. FIREWOOD IS SUPER HELPFUL. THIS IS INCLUSIVE. You only need to be A WOMAN. That's the only criteria. Women come in many types we welcome them all. THIS IS NO COST. I don't think friendship should cost a thing. If you can't afford to bring something, THAT IS OKAY. WE STILL WANT TO MEET YOU. Drop any queations below! THIS EVENT IS RAIN OR SHINE
