Join embodiment practitioner and relational resilience coach, Karta Elise Allred, for a 2-hour workshop on How to Transform Conflict & Deepen Connection in Community.
About the event
This workshop introduces an integrative map of the human nervous system, blending science-based, psycho-spiritual and somatic models into an accessible framework. We start with how to better know yourself in conflict: you’ll learn to locate yourself on this map, better track your nervous system, and practice embodied self-regulation, so you can start to build capacity to be consciously responsive rather than unconsciously reactive when drama arises. The trigger becomes the treasure.
Then, we’ll shift our attention to understanding others. Deep down, we all want to be seen and heard, AND be loved and belong. Through an insightful practice, you’ll discover how to honor these two essential human needs: for both authentic expression and genuine belonging. You’ll find that when you truly “get” the other person, you can de-escalate intensity, build trust, and pave the way for mutual understanding and effective problem-solving. This workshop offers an intro to tools and practices that are key to transforming conflict and deepening connection in any relationship or community setting.
In this session, you’ll:
- Understand the relational nature of our nervous system wiring.
- Map how our nervous system behaves — in conflict and in connection.
- Build self-awareness to better track yourself when triggers arise.
- Practice self-regulation tools to shift out of reactive states.
- Gain insight into polarity as a helpful framework for managing emotions.
- Learn tools and practices to really “get” the other in conflict.
- Practice honoring self and others to de-escalate tensions and build trust.
- Learn how the trigger can be the treasure in any relationship.
About your presenter
Karta Elise Allred
Karta Elise is a multi-passionate creative and facilitator with over two decades of devotion to empowering authentic expression AND belonging in teams and communities. She has an MA in servant leadership & relational resilience from Naropa University and an unabashed zeal for people and the living world. Her shapeshifting career has spanned people, ops, and creative branding realms, lending versatility to her coaching and consulting work.
She is obsessed with empowering fellow humans to embody the dignity of their authentic expression AND co-create the conditions for genuine belonging, healthy relationships, and generative community. As an embodiment practitioner and relational resilience coach, she guides people to transform the trigger into treasure: to navigate conflict skillfully and deepen connection in order to thrive together.
When she’s not serving clients and communities coaching relational resilience, or freelance writing authentic-voice copy for purpose driven brands, she’s likely to be found relishing the upkeep of 6 years’ un-missed 2x daily Vedic meditation, doing qi gong, and journaling. She loves to get outside every day to move in and relate with the natural world. And she’s also known in Boulder for lighting up the local community on conscious dance floors, where her leaderful embodiment activates prayers and play in the collective field.
She lives with her husband Devon Allred, a men’s coach, sacred geometrist and carpenter, surrounded by well-loved open space with epic views of the Rockies at Nyland CoHousing in rural Boulder County. There she serves on the Nyland Well-Being community action group, regularly designing connection activities, facilitating community-wide meetings, and teaching relational skills.
