At a time when many of us are navigating reconnection, how might we bring greater consciousness to our friendships?

About this event

Changing Friendship Dynamics

Despite the enduring myth of "Friends Forever," most friendships undergo some degree of change over time.

The dynamics at play are both all too common and sometimes frustratingly hard to pin down. People move, start new jobs, expand or reconfigure their families. And, of course, there was that time we all went through the first two years of a worldwide pandemic together . . . but, also, very much apart.

The Friend Audit

At a time when many of us are navigating significant actual, or desired, reconnection, workshop facilitators Joshua Fernandes and Valery Navarrete invite you to join them and other participants in a guided "Friend Audit."

Participants will experience:

  • A co-created container of care and mutual solidarity within which to bring greater consciousness to our friendships.
  • Frameworks for navigating the realities of this moment in our friendships, and discerning when to deepen vs. create distance in a friendship (and how to do so relationally.)

Logistics

Location: Withrow Park, 725 Logan Ave

Time: Saturday June 4, 2022 from 11 am to 12:30 pm

Farmer's Market: Yes, the Withrow Park Farmers' Market opens its 2022 season on the same day as our workshop! While we are not affiliated, we encourage you to explore it before or after the workshop.

Accessibility: The park is a short distance from two subway stops (Pape and Chester) which the TTC indicates have working elevators. The park has paved pathways. We plan to gather in a shaded area not too far from a pathway. Participants will need to bring their own chair or blanket (seating is not provided). We are not currently planning to provide a child-minding service or ASL interpretation. Please reach out to organizers with any accommodation needs and we will do our best to address them.

Public Health: This is an in-person, outdoor event. Masks are not required. Valery and / or Joshua may consider hosting a virtual version of this workshop in future. Let us know if this would interest you!
