Have you been curious to try a Compassionate Listening workshop but aren't ready to dive into an intro course? Have you already been transformed by CL and want to introduce a friend? Or perhaps it's been a while since you took an intro and you'd appreciate a refresher. Our upcoming Taste of Compassionate Listening is for you!

This 2.5 hour session will introduce you to the practice of Compassionate Listening, with an overview of the model and core practices along with a brief experiential dive into the work. A perfect 'taste' of the work to prepare you for the upcoming CL in Polarizing Times course in the fall -- or as a sampling to help you decide whether to enroll in our other offerings.
