I help intentional adults and people-focused teams improve their relational skills, build a rich social life, and experience more fulfilling relationships in their everyday life.

How to Connect

Connect consistently with a community of open-minded people.

Comfortably skip the surface-level small talk and connect with others on a deeper level through intentional conversations and activities.

Transform new connections into deeper friendships, naturally

What they’re still saying!

  • “For a guy like me who is not necessarily the most extroverted in the world... They are just facilitating the conversation, and it's so easy and cool. I just show up and have this meaningful dialogue. And it's something that's missing in all of our lives.”

    — Matt

  • “What makes Connection Feast unique is that it’s a great place to connect with others and better understand yourself on a deeper level.”

    — Delilah

  • “I’d invite friends to a Feast because I know they will experience a positive and encouraging vibe throughout the entire time.”

    — Donna

  • “With how isolating the world has felt lately, any chance to connect deeper feels so good to my soul. The last year, I made it a goal to push myself out of my comfort zone + something like Connection Feast is a great way for me to do that.”

    — Lindsay

  • "I'd invite friends to Connection Feast for vulnerability, diversity, to heal, and to share your intimate thoughts, to not be judged, to have clarity, and to see how connected you are with people that you've never met before."

    — Melanie

  • “Connection Feast has been one of the ways that I've been able to connect and have a deep meaningful conversation that is below the surface level with other people from the U.S., Canada, and all over the world.

    — Linda

  • “I have very few friends and few opportunities to meet people in or out of lockdown, so Connection Feast has been an opportunity to "grease the skids" for an in-person community after lockdown."

    — Jim

  • “It’s a great place for me to connect, hear others’ experiences and become introspective. It’s also a great way to evaluate the path I am on.”

    — Adrienne

  • “It's a great experience to feel seen and heard and an opportunity to share your story and hear other people's stories.”

    — Jamie

  • “What makes Connection Feast unique is the effort to create a platform to provide a solution to our society’s overwhelming loneliness. It’s such a wonderful thing. And i’d invite friends because it’s a new and unique way to communicate with others. I would still do this even if there wasn't a pandemic!”

    — Kevin

  • “Little life prompts. That's what I call them. It's like clueing me into little questions that I can ask myself and apply in my life.”

    — Amanda

Connection Feast is a place for you to explore big questions, dive deep into yourself, and make new friends.

Since 2018, we’ve had almost 1,000 Feasters attend over 60 of our events. We’ve seen first hand what happens when you bring interesting, kind, curious people together. It’s pretty amazing.

Together with members of our community, we’ve created some Community Agreements to make sure that everyone can get the most out of their time here. Take a look!

If you’re looking for even more tips and tricks, interesting interviews, and Feaster profiles, don’t forget to follow us on Instagram.

We hope you have fun, talk to strangers, and improve your social wellbeing. See you at a Feast!
