About this Event

//the what\\

Burning Thoughts is a speaker series hosted by 'the feels' x Feeld; together we stand for a more curious, high-fidelity relational ecosystem - although we go about creating it in very different ways. This fall, we're bringing together a set of speakers whose ideas live on the razor's edge of modern dating.

In this first edition of the series, we'll be in convo w Glynnis MacNicol, a memorist whose latest book, "I'm Mostly Here to Enjoy Myself," depicts her pursuit of pleasure in Paris, and whose previous book, "No One Tells You This," takes on the dimensionality of a decision to remain single as one turns 40. We'll speak into the defiance of norms that comes with eschewing committed, long-term relationships as the standard bearer, trusting one's instincts around what's 'wanted' + what choices become possible in the process.

This is a social gathering for the Feels and Feeld community — not a play or kink party.
This event is 21+.
