Valentine's Day Conversation and Empathy Workshop for Friends and Lovers with Michael Tennant

  • Book + Bottle 17 6th Street North St. Petersburg, FL, 33701 United States (map)

By popular demand, Michael Tennant is back with a Conversation Workshop for friends and lovers…

Some say our best relationships are built on stimulating conversation. To celebrate Valentine's Day, Book + Bottle invites lovers and friends to a workshop run by Michael Tennant, creator of the empathy card game Actually Curious! Using his card games, Michael will run us through exercises that push couples and friends to grow while also including moments of levity and laughter. Based on the science of trust-building and emotional intelligence, this workshop will help you get more vulnerable as you build trust - with your best pals or your significant other. Grab a glass of wine and let's get deep!

*Limited number of tickets available

Michael Tennant is the Founder, and CEO of Curiosity Lab, a purpose driven venture studio and consultancy that builds products and experiences that teach empathy, creator of the empathy card game, Actually Curious, and author of The Power Empathy, published in October 2023 by Chronicle Books. In his role as CEO, Michael creates and incubates businesses to help values-aligned individuals and organizations use empathy to live happier and healthier lives, and to nurture productive and inclusive environments.
