The Key to Creating Trust & Connection in Community

May 13, 2022 @ 2:00 PM 3:00 PM CDT

May 13th | 3:00-4:00pm Eastern

The Key to Creating Trust & Connection in Community

Join facilitator Aaron Kahlow to learn how to create trust and connection in community through Conscious Circles.

Aaron will share the steps and essential elements of creating containers of safe space to help participants connect and go deeper together.

The key to creating trust and connection is the container of holding safe space. Small group work, in circles or otherwise, is a fundamental ingredient to allowing the process and depth of connection and inner work to unfold in a way not often seen in everyday life, even in the most intentional of communities.

We will explore the fundamental ingredients for facilitating safe space, how to start and grow a small group for such work, and all the tips, tools and pitfalls to avoid.

During this session you will learn:

  • How to make people feel welcome and comfortable to saying yes to small group or circle work
  • 3 easy steps to creating safe space in any group
  • The essential agreements all groups must establish
  • Ways to continue depth and momentum to allow participants to go deeper

Workshop Presenter

Aaron Kahlow

Aaron is a well recognized facilitator and educator on social health, emotional well-being, mindful living and spiritual counseling. His personal passion is around creating more meaningful human connection, especially in small group work that he calls Conscious Circles – a safe and soulful space for all to have a place to ground, clear and be witnessed…a transformative life experience.

He founded the Society of Social Health and Well-Being, a cause-based initiative to support professionals dedicated to creating more meaningful connections and community (aka Social Health), that solves societal disconnect and loneliness. Aaron is a successful serial entrepreneur, product & marketing executive, and community leader. His past leadership roles include: BusinessOnline, Online Marketing Institute, Conscious Business World Summit, Conscious Company Media, Mindbody, Fabriq, Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching, EVRYMAN, and more.

Aaron’s combination of facilitation skills, Zen practice, entrepreneurial success and real world approach to changing our behavioral health is not only inspirational, but also highly practical for all those trying to manage the chaos of living in today’s busy connected world.
