Receiving Feedback With Grace
If you’ve caused harm, what can it look like to receive feedback with grace? This is an important skill, particularly in conversations about race. In this participant-centered workshop, we will reflect on what gets in the way of being receptive to feedback, engage with practices for staying somatically and emotionally present in a feedback conversation, and discuss how to bring Soulplay Inclusion and Belonging Values to life in our interactions at and beyond the festival.
