The Living Room is a monthly gathering for curious, thoughtful people who want to explore today’s most culturally relevant topics. These conversations aren’t lectures or debates—they’re open-ended dialogues shaped by science, spirituality, and lived experience.

This is a space to ask honest questions, hear diverse perspectives, and reflect on how these topics impact our wellbeing.

Our next gathering will explore the question: What happens when we die?

It’s one of humanity’s oldest—and most urgent—questions. And today, it's at the center of a growing body of research. Scientists, doctors, hospice workers, and ordinary people across cultures are reporting strikingly similar accounts: feelings of peace, encounters with light or loved ones, and a sense of consciousness continuing beyond the body.

What’s compelling is just how consistent these stories are—across backgrounds, beliefs, and medical conditions. That consistency raises questions science alone can’t easily explain—and opens up space for meaningful conversation about what life after death might mean for how we live now.

In this Living Room gathering, we’ll explore near-death experiences (NDEs) through the lens of science, story, and spirituality.

This is also a space to make meaning together—through sharing stories, asking questions, and reflecting on the latest scientific discoveries. Whether you’ve lost someone you love, had an experience of your own, or are simply curious—this night is for you.

We’ll gather in a beautiful Upper East Side townhouse, enjoy wine, seltzer, and snacks, and engage in small-group dialogue facilitated by thoughtful leaders.
