Conversation Matters

Squishtalks is a new experience founded on old traditions, borrowing from the Enlightenment salons and 18th century London coffee-houses, while applying contemporary insights into team dynamics, the science of creativity and innovation ecosystems. Squishtalks is based on my belief in conversation’s creative capacity to reveal insights and inspire us, to help us explore our internal emotional and intellectual landscapes, and to equip us with the ability to navigate relationships in the world around us. Whether in the context of business, entrepreneurship, personal relations, building community or living the examined life, conversation matters.

I design and deliver a variety of unique conversational experiences, events and programs for organizations, businesses, communities and individuals that tap into conversation’s rich opportunity. Squishtalks experiences are deliberately structured to free participants. Each program is designed to allow space for participants to step back, investigate their thoughts, and to engage with other curious people, allowing them to find inspiration in an enjoyable, stimulating environment.
