8. How is this different from a normal social event?In most social settings, people ask: “What do you do?” “Where are you from?” We skip all that. No labels. No introductions. Just souls meeting. We believe the best conversations happen when you don’t have to explain yourself.

FAQs
7. Is it awkward to come alone?Not at all! Many attendees fly solo (we’re all introverts here). You might leave with new new friends!
8.Will photos/recordings be taken?We don’t record conversations, and we never take photos that show participants’ faces.
Occasionally, we may capture a short video or a few stills — hands, a corner of the room, soft light — always edited in post-production to keep everyone unidentifiable. These are only shared with care, and never without respecting the safety of the space.
What matters most is that you feel free to be yourself — without a camera in your face.
9.What should I prepareJust an open mind, curiosity to other souls,
your elaboration of your feelings and stories. That’s it !
10.Can I step out during the session (e.g. take calls)?Of course! Come and go as needed.
11. Will chat content be shared publicly?*We will never share anything that could identify you. Your privacy always comes first.
Occasionally, we may share anonymous reflections or insights from our gatherings — always with care and consent, and stripped of any personal details. These aren't about individual stories; they're about the universal feelings we all share.
Because when someone reads something and thinks, “This feels like me” — that's how connection begins.
12.Can I just listen without speaking?Yes! Being a quiet observer is just as valuable. 🖤
13. Any age restrictions? All ages welcome!
14. what's age range within the other customers ?Mostly are 25-38, but still many of them are mid-age and youngsters !
15.Are there themed topics?Yep! Each session has a unique focus.
16.Are drinks/snacks provided?Free drinks/beer 🍾 + light snacks
to keep the convo flowing~
17.How many attendees per session?Mostly 5–12 people, Brunch Talk(max 5 pax) goes deeper and costs slightly more.
18.What if older/younger folks don’t "get" me?No worries! Different ages = fresh perspectives. Just speak your truth—we’re all here to listen
19.Why aren’t there any reference pictures of the sessions ?We rarely take photos during our gatherings — and when we do, it’s always with intention.
The moment a camera appears, the atmosphere shifts. People become self-conscious. The safe, unguarded space we work so hard to create suddenly feels like a stage. That’s not what we want for you.
Occasionally, we may capture a short video or a single still — a hand holding a cup, a corner of the room, a soft glow of light. But every image is carefully edited in post-production, often using silhouettes or soft forms, so that no participant can be identified. These visuals are never used in promotional posts without full consideration — and we never put our guests on display.
Our gatherings are not performances. They’re real conversations between real people, in real time. No scripts. No spectators. Just presence.
So instead of showing you what it looks like, we’d rather tell you what it feels like:
A warm studio. Soft lighting. A few strangers sitting on a plush rug, talking slowly. No introductions. No labels. Just voices, pauses, and the occasional laughter that comes when someone says something unexpectedly honest.
We do share glimpses — gently, respectfully — because we also believe that seeing something real helps build trust. But always in a way that protects the sacredness of the space, and the privacy of everyone in it.
If you’re wondering what to expect — trust the feeling you’re having right now. That quiet curiosity? That’s exactly where we begin.
20 Can I share my discount with a friend?We have two main hosts: · Cass — in his 20s, hosts intimate evening sessions in a private studio. His topics lean into the questions we’re often afraid to ask (regret, situationships, the things we keep to ourselves). · Jodi — in her 50s, hosts morning brunch talks in cozy cafes. Her topics are gentler, slower, and often explore self-love, solitude, and where we’re headed next in life. Both are trained to hold space — to listen, to guide, and to make sure everyone feels safe and seen.
20 Can I share my discount with a friend?Absolutely yes!
