Unlock the Art of Human Connection: A Workshop for the Digital Age

In an era where AI and technology are rapidly reshaping our world, one thing remains unchanged: our deep-seated need for human connection. Despite advancements in technology, the essence of what it means to be human – our need to connect – persists. Yet, in today's fast-paced society, feelings of loneliness and isolation are more prevalent than ever.

Why is something so fundamental proving to be increasingly challenging? The answer lies in the skills of human connection – skills that are not innate but can be learned and honed.

Led by Julia Metts, a seasoned attorney, former prosecutor, and law professor, and Luke W Russell, a passionate advocate for deep, meaningful human interactions, this workshop is more than just a learning experience.
