New York IRL: Expansive Conversations – Becoming

Join writer and meditation teacher, Grace Bialecki, for the next episode of a new New York City IRL series, ‘Expansive Conversations‘, where we’ll discuss poetry, authenticity and self-actualization.

As we start a new year, we’ll explore how to find the balance between authenticity and self-actualization. We’ll read the poem “The Journey” by Mary Oliver and discuss how to not get lost in the “flood of becoming.”

There is such a thing as a life changing conversation. One that keeps reverberating with ideas and inspiration rippling through your body long after you’ve stopped talking. Often, these conversations come from unexpected places — a walk with a friend, an article in an old magazine, or a book you never planned to read. In this monthly IRL series, we’ll gather to read and discuss essays on aesthetics, creativity, and the artistic process. Through our conversations, we’ll explore bringing their ideas and new creative practices into our daily lives.
