The Office of EDIB is hosting a Belonging Series this fall through its Collective Action Learning Hub.
Join Build With Bloom for Courageous Conversations: Building Bridges Across Difference, a powerful 2.5-hour virtual session designed to help you navigate complex conversations with more empathy, clarity, and courage.
In today’s polarized world, difficult conversations are everywhere—at work, at home, and even among friends. How do we stay connected across differences without compromising our values or cutting people off?
In this interactive workshop, you’ll explore:
- Why tough conversations are so challenging—and why avoiding them doesn’t help
- How to resist “all-or-nothing” thinking and embrace the grey areas
- Strategies to assert your values and set healthy boundaries
- How to lean into compassion while staying true to yourself
Whether you’re navigating classroom discussions, team dynamics, or personal relationships, this session will equip you with the mindset and tools to build bridges—not walls.
