Alliance Convening
2022-09-14 16:00 - 17:00 | Zoom
WEAll hosts monthly Convenings to foster meaningful connection and community-building between leaders engaged in creating a wellbeing-centered society.
Given where we are in the election cycle, our topic this month will be around creating connective interactions with our communities, including people we may not see eye to eye with. How can we have conversations that inspire participation in our democracy, and how can we engage in a way that is intentional and bridge-building? How can we care for and resource ourselves when engaging in challenging conversations?
The Convening will include a short talk by Jennifer Wang, WEAll facilitator and co-founder of the Nashville POC Sangha, offering some guidance and tips for heartful communication, as well as time to connect with others in small groups.

Partnership Convening for June
2022-06-08 11:00 - 12:00 | Zoom
Our idea is to weave together a wide coalition of leaders creating the new economy. We know that many of you are tackling one or more issues to create a healthier California across a wide spectrum of challenges – pollution, economic justice, democracy reform, social innovation and more. Our goal is to form a comprehensive alliance of people working towards this new healthier vision.
Convenings will be curated to be a space of deep, soulful connection across groups and networks of groups while also exploring meaningful topics. We believe this weaving will strengthen our overall coalition and lead to further opportunities to collaborate and make sense of the dense, complex system we are seeking to re-create.
Convenings will be 1 hour, once a month. They will be interactive and if all aligns well a bit of fun.
Our first six topics will be centered around how we collaborate as a nation – also known by the term Democracy. Not only is 2022 an election year, but many of us see see some deep threats to the health of our democracy.
For our first Convening, we will dialogue on
How the current challenges to our Democracy land on you and affect you.

In future sessions, we will talk about specific ways to make Democracy healthier, more vibrant and inclusive.
Please note – the Convenings are not lectures or training sessions, these are about being heard and making deeper connections. We all look forward to seeing you.
