Turning small talk into meaningful conversation Meaningful relationships start with a simple hello—but how do we make sure those first conversations don’t just fade away? Join us as we discuss why small talk matters and how it opens the door to genuine connection. We’ll explore the art of initiating conversations and share practical techniques for moving beyond surface-level exchanges. Learn how to transition from small talk to more meaningful “deep talk,” creating authentic connections that last. Registration is open to anyone 18+. This session will be facilitated by Kim Silverthorn, BA, RPC, MPCC, CT from Tacit Knowledge. X Date: Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2026 X Time: 6 to 7:30 p.m. X Location: Online - Zoom link provided X Registration: Online, Leduc-County.com/small-talk, call Kristin at 780-955-6421, or email Kristin@leduc-county.com
