What Guests Are Saying

The medicine of BreakBread is the unfreezing of ideas, we didn’t even know were frozen.

These are the only kind of conversations I want to have.

BreakBread brings the gift of peace.

What an incredible gathering this is. So well organized, such lovely people bringing their best selves. This community is WONDERFUL. Thank you!

We stand by…

Communal Practices

Create communal practices of respect, inquiry, and equanimity, where we remember and celebrate the gifts each person brings to the table and reawaken the wisdom that lives in the heart of every community.

Reinvigorate values

Reconnect to that which matters most through intentional and conscious exploration of the often invisible values and meaning that weave our world.

A Radical Pace

Consciously and deliberately slow down to a more human pace – a radical act with surprising consequences in our fast-paced world optimized for efficiency and convenience.

Commit with Vigor

It’s easy to check out in an uncertain and divided world. As part of our BreakBread ethos we encourage and support each other to be more engaged and present by asking people to “commit with vigor” to showing up.

When we change how we show up we change the world.

Our approach emerges from the soil of Conversation Alchemy.

Conversation Alchemy is a practice developed by the co-founders, Martha Williams & John Scilipote. It is a model of conversation-as-creation that helps people be more emotionally and bodily present, listen more deeply, and reclaim deeper relationship and resonance with others

and the world we live in. At its core, it is exercising that muscle commonly referred to as an
open heart

Why?.

blue line

Because all the technology, legislation, and money in the world cannot begin to solve our most pressing global problems

without genuine supportive communication capable of bridging conflict and division across the spectrum of our common humanity.


We see conversation as a profoundly fundamental yet often overlooked human technology.

Our theory of change revolves around helping people and organizations use this technology to not just learn new skills but to shift their consciousness.
