The conversation prompts don’t feel natural for my group

This can happen sometimes and having to go around in a circle can definitely change the group’s dynamic if the conversation menu has more serious subjects. We ask that you try and attempt to go through the topics as we do find it a valuable part of the program to discuss deeper subjects that sometimes friends never get to discuss! The questions are designed to allow your group to connect and relate to each other in meaningful ways. If you feel you need to modify the questions/skip some, we trust your best judgment ♥️

Some tips on how to go through the conversation menu are below:

Weaving in some lighter topics in between more serious questions! After a deeper conversation, feel free to lighten the mood for a bit with an easier question/topic after making sure your gals are all feeling validated after sharing!
Don’t feel the need to be the center of the conversation. You’re there to guide the conversation along, not respond directly to everyone in your group when they share! You don’t need to go in a circle/take the time to respond every time someone shares, allow the group to discuss the topics organically as much as possible!
Adapt the prompts so that they are more casual/better fit your group. Some examples of this are:
- One guide changed the final group affirmations to a self-affirmation exercise because she knew that not everyone in her group felt connected to one another. Instead of the group sharing things they loved about eachother, they all shared something they were proud of during the series.
- One guide approached the question "Share about a recent connection, friend or love connection" in a way that was more, "Okay, so ladies are we single are we dating, what's up?" Also, "Tell me about your friends, have you met anyone new you really get along with lately?"
- An example of lightening up a serious question like "What's something you're struggling with?" is first telling the group something you're going through without asking the question, and then ask, "Can you guys relate? What are you going through?"
