You, Me, We: Navigating Tension in Relationships & Connecting Better with Others

Wherever we bump up against others, we are faced with the human dilemma of relating. We all have an idea what it looks and feels like when it goes well. We also know what happens when relationships get tense, uncomfortable, and frustrating. How do we understand what's going on when relating is not going well? And what can we do about it?

At this seminar, Lauren Errington will share some thinking from family systems theory about what we are up against in relationships and where our efforts are best directed in working on connecting with others. Whether it's thinking about your relationships with family, friends, work colleagues or sporting mates, come along to test out some ideas. 

The event is free and there will be supper served afterwards.
