Conversations about life, work & being human.


Festivals, conferences and community gatherings can be places for more than listening and learning. They can also offer opportunities to reflect, connect, share experiences or simply pause for a while.
Festivals, conferences and community gatherings can be places for more than listening and learning. They can also offer opportunities to reflect, connect, share experiences or simply pause for a while.
The format depends on the people and the setting. A session might involve a talk and conversation, individual reflection, writing or a simple body-based practice.
Participation is always invitational. There's no expectation to share anything personal or take part in an activity that doesn't feel right for you.

I'd rather create a bit of space to think, feel, notice, connect, rest — and perhaps leave seeing something differently.

This is one of my favourite conversations to bring into a room. I'm not there to tell anyone what their purpose is — that's not mine to answer. My role is to create enough space for people to sit with the question for themselves, away from some of the noise about what we're supposed to want.
Our relationship with work changes. At one point we might want ambition, progression and challenge; at another, security matters more. Meaning can feel important, or what we need most might be to finish at five and have enough of ourselves left for the rest of our life.

What clients say
“It was a pleasure to have Tatiana lead her Work and Purpose workshop at our Sound & Silence Festival in London. It was one of the most popular sessions at the festival, reaching full capacity. Tatiana delivered a fantastic, engaging workshop that was incredibly well received by participants. We’d love to work with her again!“
