For more than a decade I’ve been thinking about challenging conversations.
- About the people that avoid them at all costs.
- And about the people that drive over others with their opinions while refusing to listen to another point of view.
How do you usually respond? (I’ve done both.)
You’re Invited! To the first CONVERSATION Safari in Houston!
Our shaking world desperately needs us to learn how to dialogue, research, think critically, collaborate and problem solve WITH those that think differently than we do.

How badly do you want to know the end of the story?
Have you ever been in the midst of reading a book and just had to look at the last few pages to see how it ends?
Have you ever been at the bookstore and flipped ahead in the books you are considering, to decide which ending you would prefer to read?

- Cheering for them to come through it all, victoriously?
- Fully experiencing all of the emotions they are feeling?
How about with your own story?
Have you ever:
- Participated in conversations about the behavior of certain titled leaders?

- Wondered why opportunities to problem solve and improve the future were not taken?
Have you ever spoken these words, “Why doesn’t “someone” do something?”
When the change you want to see isn’t happening “out there”…
