Possibility Fellowship 2026

Possibility Fellowship 2026

March 13, 2026 May 30, 2026

Reimagining new possibilities for how we live as communities, together.

What is the Possibility Fellowship?

The course aims to offer an embodied understanding of how communing and the quality of our relationships is the foundation of community. It hopes to nourish our individual and collective capacity to adapt to the ever-changing complexities of life, finding new ways of living together that are enlivening for us all.

Is this for me?

Yes, if you....

  • Wish to connect more deeply with yourself and with others
  • Are at a crossroads in your life and looking for new direction or inspiration
  • Are active in community, supporting marginalised groups or advocating for change…
  • Are seeking to find and nourish your own voice and calling, be it in the domain of policy or politics, science or scholarship

What might the benefits be?

You are likely to:

  • Experience and deepen your capacity for ‘communing’ — showing up with one another with genuine appreciation and deep respect — as the foundation of community.
  • Make and deepen relationships within and beyond your Fellowship group, including with people from diverse backgrounds and life experiences.
  • Review your assumptions and perhaps see life and the world differently.
  • Gain confidence and inspiration for combining with others and taking meaningful action.
  • Play with the question “Who can I be with you, and who can you be with me?”

What past participants had to say:

“Last weekend I finished the most amazing course I have done so far. Words would never be enough to express my journey throughout The Possibility Fellowship. The course was a story-filled exploration of what's possible for me and my communities, for reimagining new possibilities for me, others and the world.”
– Patricia Villa

“When I started I was in limbo. Do I walk back on the path I was going on, or do I try to find something different, something new? I learned that my community work doesn’t have to be grand, that it can start from the people all around me. The Fellowship experience gave me clarity about my gifts and confidence to give them.”

Pop Up Community Lounge – Mondays at John Wellard

Every Monday (apart from Public Holidays) we swing open the doors at John Wellard Community Centre and invite the community in for something refreshingly simple — a no-agenda space.

Just come as you are.
Pull up a chair and enjoy a cuppa, settle in for a chat, or browse the shelf and challenge someone to a friendly game. You might like to curl up with a book, meet someone new, or simply enjoy a relaxed moment in good company.

The Pop Up Community Lounge is a space to slow down, linger a little longer and connect with others from your community. The conversation flows, some days the games table fills up and other days people simply enjoy a quiet moment — and that’s exactly how we like it.

No bookings, no pressure, just an open door and a warm welcome.
Come along, go with the flow and see where the day takes you.

7:00 pm: Transform Your Relationships and Communication - Warwick

7:00 pm: Transform Your Relationships and Communication - Warwick


March 16, 2026

Are you struggling with challenges in your relationships with others - at home, at work, or with friends?

Or have you had a falling out with someone you care about, and you want to heal and strengthen your relationship with them?

Or maybe your relationships are going well, but you want to deepen your connection and prevent future problems?

If so, come and join our free weekly class - a relaxed community space to explore practical tools, fresh ideas, and real conversations that help you communicate more effectively and strengthen your relationships.

This group is also advertised outside Meetup, and regulars don’t RSVP every week. So don’t worry if you don't see many attendees below - there’s always a great group there!

What You’ll Get Out of These Classes

Each week, we’ll explore key principles, techniques and skills to help you:

✅ Communicate more clearly and constructively

✅ Encourage others to open up and communicate freely with you

✅ Prevent misunderstandings, arguments and fights

✅ Navigate and handle painful emotions without shutting down or blowing up

✅ Resolve practical problems, contentious issues and conflicts in your relationships

✅ Rebuild trust, heal and strengthen your relationships

This class runs every week and focuses on a new topic each time - you’ll always learn a ton of new things and have plenty of “aha!” moments!

You can use what you learn in any relationship context (partners, families, friendships, colleagues, networks) so it’s totally fine to come if you’re single.

No previous experience or skills are needed, and people of any age, gender and background are welcome 🙂

Please note: This class is not a form of therapy or counselling. It’s a community-based space for reflection, discussion, and learning practical strategies. If you're facing a crisis or needing mental health support, please seek help from a qualified professional or support service.

What These Classes Look Like

Each class is a combination of:

👨🏼‍🏫 Interactive presentations

📋 Real life examples and case studies

🗨 Group discussion and Q&A

🛠 Practical exercises and activities

The classes always provide a safe and supportive environment, while being casual and fun - it's an awesome group of people!

You’ll have a great time and learn a ton of valuable stuff, and you’ll leave each class feeling clearer, more in control and really happy you came 🙂

About Your Host

Hi, I’m AJ.

I’ve been exploring relationships and communication passionately for the past 20 years, and I’ve been helping people in this area professionally for the past 10 years.

Over that time, I've built a huge base of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques, as well as developing a few systems and processes of my own.

I’m always excited to share what I've learned to help people transform their relationships and communication - and that’s what this class is all about!

I'm also passionate about contributing and having an impact. This class is my latest volunteer project, and I’d love for you to be part of it.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

I’m looking forward to meeting and connecting with you 🙂
