Our last cohort of Authentic Relating in Community was so connecting and so fun, I have decided to run them every few months. The next one will be starting sometime in the week of Sept. 21. In other good news, I am retaining the “experiment” which is to offer it sliding-scale between $100 and $300.
The program is now scheduled on-demand via a Doodle poll, for details see here. So if you are wanting to participate, now is the time to send in your fully refundable $50 / 50€ deposit, and then email or Whatsapp me as described in the link above.
Sophie is also offering a German-language ARC soon (different format). It is full but you can read about it here and get on the waitlist by writing to her. As FYI, Sophie is brilliant with couples as well, and we may offer a joint couple’s group soon.
Reasons for taking an ARC
There are two primary reasons for attending an ARC: one is to have an Authentic Relating experience and connect deeply with a peer group. The second reason (and I am seeing this more and more) is for people who want to lead their own groups and learn a format that works. I have been running 6-week, cohort-based groups for 10 years, and this format also works very well for a long-term group. I am, in fact, starting an in person men’s group in Berlin using this format exactly (which is flexible, its circling after all). If you live in Berlin and are interested in that, just reply to this email.
What you actually get
For only $100 (low-income), this is an unusual offer. Consider what’s included:
- Six consecutive weeks with the same 6-8 people, via Zoom. I am a big fan of closed groups, as the container deepens in ways a one-off workshop or drop-in circles rarely achieve.
- Direct training in Circling, widely considered the gold-standard Authentic Relating practice and a genuinely game-changing modality. If you are intrigued by Circling but have been too scared to try, this is a golden opportunity.
- Join the thriving global community. Drop-in confidently to any of the dozen circles happening daily on multiple platforms. And find out which platform will work best for you.
- Want to start a group or community? This may be your first step. You don’t become an AR leader in 6 weeks (I am 10 years in and still learning). But I will teach you a group format that has worked well for me.
