​Color-Coded Conversations β€” Beyond Small Talk

​A small room. Twelve women. One evening of conversations that go a little deeper.

​Hi everyone! πŸ‘‹

​You're invited to the very first Color-Coded Conversation β€” an intimate evening for women who want to move beyond the usual β€œWhat do you do?” and make space for more meaningful connection.

​Inspired by Color Coded: Finding Ourselves and Our Stories, the #1 Amazon Bestseller by Urmila Menon, this is a carefully curated gathering of just 12 women.

​Together, we'll explore the stories, labels and experiences that shape how we see ourselves β€” and create space for conversations that are a little more honest, thoughtful and human.

​You don't need to know anyone in the room. You don't need to have read the book.

​Just come curious.

​What to expect

  • ​A guided, interactive 90-minute experience

  • ​Thought-provoking prompts around identity, belonging and the stories we carry

  • ​Individual reflection, paired conversations and small-group exchanges

  • ​A welcome drink

  • ​A personal reflection or intention to take away

  • ​10% off DARA's menu if you'd like to continue the evening afterwards

​We'll explore four simple ideas:

​SEE β€” How do we see ourselves, and how do others see us?

​UNLEARN β€” What labels, expectations or stories might we have inherited?

​CONNECT β€” What happens when we move beyond β€œWhat do you do?”

​RECLAIM β€” What do we want to carry forward?

​This isn't your typical networking event. There are no pitches, no working the room and no pressure to perform.

​Just a deliberately small group, a few good questions, and the opportunity to meet women you might not otherwise have crossed paths with.

​Come on your own. Leave with a new perspective β€” and perhaps a few connections that feel a little more real. ❀️
