View on Meetup View on Ticket TailorDesires often get a bad press. From religion to popular culture, they’re painted as dangerous and uncontrollable forces to be suppressed or ignored.
Yet our desires are really messengers of what matters most. A healthy relationship with our needs and wants is vital – it’s the foundation of personal autonomy, authentic relationships, and our own sacred unfolding.
For our Valentine’s Special, we are thrilled to welcome Adam Taffler, a facilitator and authentic communication coach, to help us all understand how to better articulate what we need and want in our relationships. Adam’s mission is making human connection a higher priority in culture. Known for founding the Togetherness movement and creating Shhh Dating (a silent speed dating experience), he designs spaces where genuine connection flourishes.
We are also excited to have some spoken word from Michael McKimm, an East London-based poet, originally from Ireland. His most recent book ‘Because we could not dance at the wedding’ is about love in a long-term gay relationship and finding joy in an uncertain world.
