In this episode, we covered:

- Talking circles are called by different names, including conversation circles, listening circles, sharing circles and groups (women's groups, men's groups, girl's groups)

- Circle time can be very straight forward or contain lots of ceremony - it depends on the purpose and the demographic

- Ceremony can be missing in many people's lives and be enriching

- Having familiar words or practices (or rituals) can create a sense of safety and familiarity that helps settle people's nervous systems

- There's space for all sorts of different circles

- If you're unsure about going to one, contact the facilitator and ask what the circle is like
