Trying on A Different Self

Love & Other Emotions
Starting Oct 13, 2026 8PM UTC

About this Session

Halloween gives us permission to become someone else for a night. We can be bolder, stranger, more glamorous, more powerful, or completely unlike ourselves. But sometimes the versions we choose to try on can reveal something about who we admire, what we hide, or who we might want to become.

In this session, we’ll explore masking, identity, and the different versions of ourselves we move through. Together, we’ll reflect on who we once dreamed of becoming, the parts of ourselves we tone down or keep hidden, and whether trying on something new can sometimes bring us closer to who we really are.

About this Space

Emotions Are Meant to Be Felt, Together

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to love and emotions. Whether you're healing from heartbreak, learning to trust, or redefining what love means to you, this space offers a place to process it all.

Emotions can feel overwhelming in isolation, but in community, they become shared experiences—lighter, more meaningful, even joyful. Through connection, we find not just support, but laughter, insight, and the reassurance that we’re never alone in what we feel.

What to Expect in These Spaces

  • Open, guided discussions on relationships, self-love, and emotional resilience
  • Community-driven support to help process love, loss, and connection
  • Storytelling and shared experiences to navigate complex emotions together

Topics We Explore

  • Navigating Love & Relationships
  • Processing Heartbreak & Loss
  • Self-Love & Worth
  • Emotional Barriers & Vulnerability
  • Understanding Attraction & Connection
  • Familial Relationships & Boundaries
  • Sexual Intimacy & Emotional Closeness
  • Expressing and Receiving Love

We try to tame emotions, to categorize them, to rank them from pleasant to unbearable. But they do not ask for labels. They only ask to be felt.
