About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Calm Circles is a peer-to-peer sharing circle to connect and learn.

Self-love and identity aren't fixed; they evolve. For many in the LGBTQIA+ community, this journey can be shaped by coming out, navigating cultural or family expectations, questioning labels, or simply trying to feel at home in your own skin. It’s not always easy, but it’s always valid.

Whether you're exploring who you are, learning how to be kinder to yourself, or showing up for someone on their own journey, join us for a space to pause, reflect, and connect.

This Pride Month, we’re holding this Calm Circles in collaboration with The T Project, Singapore’s first and only social service for the transgender community.

During group conversations with our trained facilitators, we will hear from one another on:

• What self-love means to us and what gets in the way

• How our identities shape the way we see ourselves

• Ways we’re learning to feel more whole and seen

* Disclaimer: Calm Circles are not a replacement for any existing or ongoing therapy or any professional mental health care.

Reviews from our past participants:

“Calm Circles is a great space for people who need the human touch to come and connect, especially during this time when we need to be kind to ourselves and each other.”

“I was also very encouraged and pleasantly surprised at what an authentic and respectful conversation about feelings we can have with strangers in an Asian context.”

“I liked that it was an open and affirming space! It allowed everyone to share some things in their personal life that they recognised as points of pain and learning. The sharing also made it such a precious space of growth.”

Late arrival policy:

We kindly request all participants to arrive on time for the session, as late arrivals may disrupt any ongoing discussions. If you will be more than 15 minutes late, we suggest attending the next scheduled Calm Circles to ensure that you get the most out of the session without causing any inconvenience
