A conversation about identity, confidence, and the quiet courage of showing up.
Monday, March 30th
Waterworks Food Hall - 50 Brant Street (Toronto, ON)
Doors 6:30pm - 9:30pm-ish
About The Series
Our newest series takes us beyond the table and into the city; Talking With Strangers brings candid conversations to unexpected places, amplifying voices, stories, and perspectives that remind us of our shared humanity.
Think: part-panel, part social experiment: hear bold stories from local creators, dreamers, and doers, and swap stories with fellow strangers, jumping into groups that skip small talk and get right to the good stuff.
We’re creating a space to spark connection and remind us we’re all figuring it out together. Come curious, leave with new friends (and maybe a story or two you’ll be telling for weeks).
What to Expect
Cocktail Hour (starts at 6:30pm!)
Grab a drink and some snacks settle in, and ease into the night with playful icebreaker prompts - Grapewitches will be running the bar, and you can bring food in from the food hall!
Conversations with our featured guest
This month, our special guest is Raia ‘Coach’ Carey — as a 3x Certified Life Coach, speaker, and EDI consulant, Coach Carey is passionate about encouraging others to tap into the confidence they never knew they had. After overcoming various hardships, she was able to transform her mindset and begin a career that empowers others to do the same.

Breakout Groups
You’ll join small groups (twice during the evening!) with guided prompts that help you get past small talk and connect with fellow strangers.
Collective Conversation
We’ll close the night together — audience and speakers in dialogue, questions, reflections, and maybe even a laugh or two.
Tickets are non-refundable. Prices are in CAD.
