What if your discomfort was the key to real change? Our Discomfort Sessions are all about leaning into the conversations that matter most - even when they’re awkward, challenging, or confronting. In this safe, guided space, we’ll explore a thought‑provoking topic that pushes us to question our assumptions, listen to different perspectives, and reflect on our own.
Through open discussion, shared stories, and respectful dialogue, you’ll have the chance to unpack tricky subjects without fear of judgement. It’s not about having all the answers - it’s about creating the courage and curiosity to ask better questions and truly listen.
This Month’s Topic – Community‑led vs. “Comm‑lied to” TokenismWe’ve all heard the buzzwords - community‑led, co‑designed, resident‑driven. But when is it genuine, and when is it just box‑ticking? In this session, we’ll dig into the difference between true community leadership and tokenistic gestures that keep decision‑making in the same old hands.
Through open discussion and real‑life examples, we’ll explore how to spot tokenism, call it out, and push for authentic collaboration where communities set the agenda - not just rubber‑stamp it. Whether you’ve experienced this firsthand or you’re curious about how to do better, this is your space to share, listen, and work towards change that’s more than skin‑deep.
