🗓️ Agenda / What You'll Experience

💬 Round 1: Reflective Icebreaker with Curious Souls' Questions

We’ll begin by revisiting the heart of our community: previous write-your-own questions. Dive into a curated collection of 250+ thought-provoking prompts written by past participants across the world. Pick a card, share its origin (e.g., “This one’s from a Curious Soul in Osaka!”), and ignite conversations that honor our shared journey.

Note: This session may involve virtual question cards accessed via a link or QR code. If you do not have a device (phone/tablet) to access these, please ask a facilitator for assistance; we have spare units available.

💬 Round 2: Focused Discussion – Building on Our Legacy (Optional)

Where time allows, after warming up, we’ll gather in a circle to explore a fresh topic inspired by your new questions. Bring a new question or draw from the icebreaker deck (now enriched by our community’s history). Together, we’ll vote on a question to unpack, weaving in reflections from past dialogues and new perspectives alike.

From there, we’ll embark on a respectful, engaging, and meaningful conversation, celebrating the diversity of perspectives and ideas within the group.

💬 Collective Reflection & Closing

In the final 10 minutes, we’ll pause to honor key insights and “aha” moments. How have our past questions shaped today’s conversation? What threads connect us across cities and experiences? Leave with a deeper appreciation for the wisdom we’ve built together—and where it might lead next.

Optional extension: If the group wishes, we’ll continue chatting informally after the official close. Feel free to stay or leave as needed.

✨ Why This Special Edition of Curious Souls Café?
