A Dating and relationship lecture with Gavin & Joy Taylor. You deserve to feel safe. In love, your body, and the messy, magical territory of human connection.
Whether you’re dating, partnered, or somewhere in between, the quality of your relationships often comes down to one thing: Do you feel safe to be your whole self? Do you know how to create that sense of safety for your partner and yourself?
In this honest and heartfelt workshop, we’ll explore building and deepening emotional and relational safety as the foundation for true intimacy. We’ll unpack what attachment styles have to do with your reactions in love, how your nervous system influences connection, and why co-regulation isn’t just for therapy sessions—it’s for everyday life, including those awkward late-night “What are we even doing?” conversations.
We’ll also explore how transparency builds trust, and why balancing the needs for safety, risk, independence, and belonging is a lifelong dance.
This is an invitation to come home to yourself and create the kind of connection where you and your partner can exhale. You’ll leave with greater clarity, practical tools, and possibly a few good laughs. After all, if we can’t laugh about love, what can we laugh about?
As husband-and-wife co-facilitators, Gavin and Joy Taylor bring over 65 years of combined experience in designing and leading transformational programs and workshops. Their shared passion is establishing environments where participants feel deeply seen, heard and valued. Committed to creating a space where authenticity thrives, we invite you to safely explore your vulnerabilities, celebrate your power, and engage in meaningful self-discovery.
