Listen Again: How to gather in meaningful ways with Priya Parker

Listen Again: How to gather in meaningful ways with Priya Parker


We are re-airing some of our favorite episodes during our summer break like this one with expert facilitator, Priya Parker. After the pandemic took apart so many of our favorite ways of hanging out, we might be out of practice. Or too tired or overwhelmed. Priya encourages us all to practice being together for different reasons. And they don’t have to be nearly as fancy or predictable as we might think…

In this episode, Kate and Priya discuss:

  • How do we show up for other people and ourselves in creative ways
  • How to know when a change might be needed in a regular gathering
  • Risk and the awkwardness of needing people
