The Book Society: Election Night with Sky Nelson-Isaacs

On election night, learn SEW—a simple framework for staying grounded, curious, and connected when conversations become polarized.
About this Event

Do you find yourself discouraged by current events? How about our ability to talk about them together?

Author and physicist Sky Nelson-Isaacs has spent many election cycles engaging with alternate viewpoints from a place of curiosity, and came away encouraged by the underlying human connections he made. Come together on election night to learn about a simple, powerful framework called SEW (Style, Emotions, Wholeness) for staying grounded in the moments that push us toward polarization. Drawing on his forthcoming book The Synchronicity Path, Sky shares how curiosity — not certainty — can help free us and connect us, and how the experiences that keep repeating in our lives are often pointing towards our own learning.

You will leave with a tool you can use right away — in a tense conversation, a difficult relationship, or a community that you want to change. And you will leave feeling less alone in the struggle to stay open when the world keeps pulling toward taking sides.
