What happens at a typical session
Usually three parts: time to connect (often with food), a short talk/video, and then small-group conversation where you can share your thoughts or just listen.
Do I have to talk in the small group?
No. You can share as much or as little as you want. Many people start by just listening.

When does the next Alpha start?

Is Alpha online or in-person?
Both—depending on the course type and quarter. Some courses meet online and others meet in person. We’ll include the format in the schedule announcement.
What if I have tough questions or I disagree?
You’re welcome here. Alpha is built for honest conversation—questions are encouraged, and no question is off-limits.

Not at all. Alpha is designed for people who are exploring, so no background knowledge is needed.
I’m shy or nervous—what should I expect?
