Ready for a different kind of night out?

Restaurants, shows, bars and dancing are great, but for someone like you….

You COME ALIVE when you’re:

• Meeting new people

• Learning or gaining new self-awareness

• Getting a little outside of your comfort zone

• Having authentic and deep conversations

• So we’re curating a room full of people just like you…

But that’s not all.

We know meeting new people is fun, but it can be awkward, boring or intimidating.

A lot of events gather cool people in a room, but they don’t support them to connect.

The result?

• Boring small talk

• Awkward standing around

• Leaving feeling unsatiated and overstimulated

So we do things differently.

From the moment you walk in the door to the moment you leave, we’ve got something for you to do that eliminates awkwardness and helps you learn something new and valuable from everyone in the room.

We see everyone's life experience as buried treasure waiting to be discovered.

So we have a few activities that help you uncover the golden nuggets of wisdom within the hearts and minds of the incredible people in the room.

We want you to get excited about who you could meet!

You’ll be surrounded by people who vibe with these beliefs…

Our 5 Core Beliefs:

1) Connection is an essential nutrient for the soul.

2) Your attention is one of the most valuable gifts you can give someone.

3) Humans need to be seen and understood, more than solved or fixed.

4) Everyone has something to teach us if we really listen.

5) No matter how you feel - happy, sad, on, or off - you belong.

WHY IS A SOUL NOURISHING NIGHT OUT IMPORTANT?

When your soul is nourished:

1) you can give more (from a full cup) to your family, friends, work, etc.

2) you’re more mentally healthy, present and creative.

3) barriers of fear and isolation melt away and the world feels like a friendlier place.

Who It's For

• Singles, couples, friends, etc.

• Business professionals, leaders and entrepreneurs

• Torontonians, newcomers and tourists

• Introverts and extroverts

CONNECTnite is:

• NOT a networking event, BUT you might make some epic business contacts.

• NOT a speed dating event, BUT you might find a date.

• NOT a workshop, BUT you will definitely learn something.

The purpose of our gathering is connection. We make connecting with new people fun and easy.

WHAT WE DO DIFFERENTLY

We know small talk only skims the surface of what’s possible in a conversation.

So we facilitate structured conversations that allow you to meet lots of new people and turn conversations into deeper connections very quickly.

We don’t ask, “What do you do?”

We go deeper.

We don’t just ask better questions though.

Questions are just the beginning

The real magic is in our recipe for connection.

Have you heard of Dr. Brene Brown? She has one of the top 10 most watched TED Talks of all time.

Her definition of connection is: “The energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard and valued.”

Our aim is to give you that experience, and our Recipe for Connection is how we guide you there.

HOW IT WORKS

• The whole process is facilitated so you don’t have to worry about what to say or do.

• Two circles face each other.

• We guide you through structured conversation with our Recipe for Connection.

• Ten mins with each partner.

• We curate opportunities to reconnect with yourself to reduce overstimulation and awkwardness.

• Relax and enjoy the ride!
