~Part of the Widening Circles Series Co-Presented with Healing Circles Global~

Join host Diana Lindsay in conversation with Christina Baldwin and Ann Linnea, co-founders of PeerSpirit and The Circle Way. Christina and Ann trained thousands of people in The Circle Way around the world. They consulted with organizations and communities who want to give more voice to everyone around the circle, whether the conversation takes place in a board room, a nurses’ lounge, or a community.

In this conversation, we explore:

How the circle is common first culture, one of the building blocks that allowed us to become social beings—from the campfire to the council fire and onward.

Why cultures developed a “neutral” structure of circle that could be adapted to different uses by different peoples.

Stories of how the structure of circle becomes a foundational tool for personal, local, and global change.
