Authentic Relating Games Evening

March 26th, 2025 from 7 pm to 9 pm in the Community Room at 7400 Woodlawn Avenue NE in the Greenlake neighborhood of Seattle

Why an Authentic Relating Event?

Because, now more than ever, we need communities. Because our connections sustain us. Because togetherness might be all we have.

Dive into heartfelt, genuine conversations where each person’s unique humanity is fully embraced. Together, we’ll create a space where all parts of you are welcome. The more we allow ourselves to connect and nourish one another, the more we foster a community of care, support, and understanding.

This is what we will seek to create at this Authentic Relating event.

What is an Authentic Relating Event?

It’s a place to practice new ways of connecting in a fun, social setting, where meaningful interactions are the norm, not the exception. We’ll create a safe, intentional space where vulnerability is celebrated, curiosity is encouraged, and the complexity of human connection can unfold.

From moments of deep presence to spontaneous bursts of laughter, you'll experience the full spectrum of relating. This event is a playground for exploring the edges of your comfort zone, discovering how you relate to others, and how others relate to you—without pretense or superficiality. It’s a chance to explore authentic connection in a conscious and supportive environment.

Who Can Attend?

Any adults over the age of 18. No previous experience with Authentic Relating is necessary—just a willingness to be open, curious, and yourself.

What to Bring

Your willingness to be curious, to challenge your assumptions, to be open to surprises, and to fully embrace this experience. Be prepared to lean into what’s uncomfortable, celebrate what’s beautiful, and walk away feeling more alive and more seen.
