Own Your Story

18 Dec, 12:30 PM–5:00 PM  ·  Holloway

Event details

Until we own our stories, we are haunted by them. Experience the power and freedom that comes from speaking them out and being deeply heard We are our stories. Those we share with others and those we tell ourselves. They shape our identity and influence every interaction. Whether we realise it or not, we are deeply affected by the roles we still play in our memories (when we think or speak about them), and the parts we play out in our lives. At a recent storytelling event, each person shared a defining moment. One that affected them long after. One member commented, she only realised how important a decision was through sharing it out loud. She felt stronger in that decision and it made sense of her life in a new way. Sharing her story with someone wasn't as much for the other person as it was for her... to hear herself. It requires some courage to tell stories in this way, because we have to feel more, and be seen to feel more. It can be scary. If you are willing to be a little bit scared for a little bit longer, you will access something deeper within. During another experience, The Deep Art Of Conversation, a member said that experiencing more discomfort while sharing had him feeling stronger. At first he was resisting the feelings that were coming up and felt weaker. As he challenged himself to feel more, he felt himself growing in strength. That's the beauty of discomfort: Just like lifting weights regularly makes our muscles grow, the more we feel, the stronger we become. Except, unlike muscles, there is no limit to how strong we can get inside or how quickly that can happen. Within the Deep Connections space, I guide us on a gradual journey that will have you take small courageous steps while being supported. We are all in this together. I'll be sharing vulnerably in front of the group, as will my nephew Ben. You will be doing it in small groups and pairs. It’s a journey of ownership and deeper connection to yourself through telling the stories of your life. By owning them you will leave that environment stronger than when you arrived. You will be sharing in a space where you will be deeply listened to. At Deep Connections, we don't leave that up to chance. There are some listening rules that we will all abide by to ensure that you and each person has the experience of feeling seen and heard. It's unlikely you'll have been at any many events where the entire room of people are doing this. It is powerful! Join us, for this very special experience. Here's what others have said: "I came out of it with this sense of FREEDOM. This could be my entire life if I wasn't such a chicken shit!"Anna Boocock, July 2022" "I learnt how to be brave...honestly I am more courageous after that evening" Pallavi Tyagi Oct 2022.

I am learning to forgive myself for those things I regret. I am also being brave, being more of myself without worrying about rejection” Rony` Ismail Oct 2022 On The Day 12:30pm - Arrive, meet other members.
