Episode 105: What makes us human?

If you love conversation and coffee, you’ve come to the right place. We meet weekly at our favourite local cafe to chat about life, the universe, and everything with the aim to make ourselves better through dialogue.

Oh and yes, we want to change the world too!

Our dialogues are not exclusive, in fact, the more people – people like you – we can engage in conversation, the more we all learn.

Our basic approach is grounded in appreciative inquiry, the Socratic method (basically asking loads of good questions that make you stop and think), and positive psychology.
