1. Circles Certified Guide

   Forumspace

   Feb 2023 — Present

   Circles comes from the age-old tradition of storytelling and gathering as a community. The Circl.es System™ enables the same kind of human connection, virtually. Our video space is perfect for hosting facilitated, inclusive sessions. The unique setting and features shake small groups out of the day-to-day and into intentional dialogue about their most important challenges. Once a circle “jells” they continuously meet to apply and practice, engaging over months instead of days.
