Change the Conversation
& Change the World
BreadBread is a community conversation practice that sets the conditions for respect, trust and care to take root in your communities and life.
In a world that’s distracted, disconnected and divided…connected gathering is an act of resistance!
That’s why we call our work Conversation Activism — an intentional practice where we resist the cultural forces that foster alienation and division embracing values and ways of being that make way for people, communities and organizations to flourish.
We Work at the Intersection of
the Art of Gathering and Conversation Alchemy
because how you gather, sets the stage for the conversation; and the conversations we have weave the web of the world. There are several ways to get involved:

What Guests Are Saying
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.Â
Our approach emerges from the soil of Embodied Conversation.
Embodied Conversation 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.
