This signup is for finding opportunities to connect using Teddy Bear Talk Support in pairs or with multi-person Zoom calls.  The list below provides some examples of different Teddy Bear Talk Support calls you can do.  Click on the bold, underlined links to learn more about each one.  

• Basic Teddy Bear Talk Support calls - Calls where listeners hold the space for talkers silently.
• Clearness Committee-based calls - Calls where listeners only ask honest, open questions. 
• Co-working sessions - Calls where you intersperse doing work independently (usually for 15 minutes or 20 minutes at a time) with taking turns doing Teddy Bear Talk Support (usually for 3 minutes each).
• Nonviolent Communication calls - Empathy calls and other Nonviolent Communication calls/meetings including practice groups - Nonviolent Communication empathy calls can be thought of as Teddy Bear Talk Support calls if listeners are mainly constrained to just provide empathy guesses.
