LIFE CAFE: Healthy Minds. Connected Lives.
"It's the best thing I've ever done!” - Tom
Feeling lost and lonely in a world obsessed with likes and followers?
What if it's not about fitting in but becoming who you truly are?
"Loneliness doesn’t come from not having people around you, but from being unable to communicate the things that are most important to you" - Carl Jung
Hi, I’m Dr Paul Whetham, a clinical psychologist who did my doctorate on loneliness - which is an unlikely gateway to the path of individuation (authenticity).
Welcome to Life Cafe where we use creativity, conversation and bold experiments to reshape how we think, feel and connect:
"Life Cafe changed my life” – Karen
"Smashed my darkest thoughts" – Kim
"Less lonely, my world transformed" – Liv
“A great challenge and the best thing ever.
I’ve been looking for this all my life.” - Robyn
When did connection become noise? When did real conversation become communication junk food?
Loneliness is an epidemic and a killer—it effects 1 in 3 people and takes up to 15 years off your life.
Our Community Connector Course offers 10-hours of free training to educate members in the community about loneliness and equip them with practical skills to become Community Connectors who can move the conversation from small talk to soul talk.
The aim of the Beyond Loneliness Project is to flip the script on loneliness. "Loneliness doesn’t come from not having people around you, but from being unable to communicate the things that are most important to you."—Carl Jung
We partner with Governments and Councils to provide free skills training through our 10-hour Community Connector Course. Dr Whetham did his PhD on loneliness and previously trained counsellors in universities, now he trains Community Connectors in Life Cafes.
