2ME4U: Stories of Self-Exploration from the Heart

2ME4U is a live talk show / storytelling format that invites meaningful conversation focused on intimate self-reflection. This series highlights the importance and power of self-reflection with the greater purpose of fostering community through shared vulnerability. Think of it as having a conversation between you (ego) and yourself (higher-self), on stage for the listening and learning pleasure of others. Think it, feel it, say it. No apologies.

We kick off with a “Speed Intimacy” to warm things up and then right into unfiltered truth-telling. Each event will feature different men of color from the community sharing their story while we "hold the space".  The atmosphere is casual, fun, and loving. After our featured speakers we invite people from the audience to share on the open mic (everyone welcome)! No reading or notes allowed - just bring your vulnerable and unfiltered stories.

2ME4U explores a myriad of voices, life experiences, and wellness topics by which people can self-identify - delivering impact in a social way. Denzel Herrera-Davis, founder of Create The Space, will host this live foundational series on self-exploration while sharing stories from his life and the lives of others.

StorySlam Oakland: Drugs

StorySlam Oakland: Drugs

When did you have great doubt about something going on in your life, and what did you do to either overcome that doubt, or change because of it? Come tell us your story, or just listen to others. This month's theme is: Drugs.

StorySlam Oakland is a different kind of storytelling show, designed to make it easy to hear and tell true stories. We don't have a stage -- it's casual and fun. The audience gets to vote on the best open-mic story of the night. Two more seasoned storytellers will complement the open-mic stories from the audience. And, at StorySlam Oakland, we give away FREE DRINKS to all our open-mic storytellers! 

Put your name in the hat for a chance to tell your true story of five minutes (or less) on the theme. No reading or notes allowed. Tell it from memory or just wing it! You'll hear a bell to let you know when you must wrap it up. Win a free drink ticket if you get up there to tell.

Even if you're not ready to tell, you can still submit a few lines of your epic "Doubt" story on an Audience Participation Slip. The host may read it aloud (anonymously of course).

It's a lively competition, and a fun night for storytellers and listeners alike. 

Doors: 6:30 PM
Stories begin: 7:00 PM
1 intermission.

StorySlam Oakland: Doubt

When did you have great doubt about something going on in your life, and what did you do to either overcome that doubt, or change because of it? Come tell us your story, or just listen to others. This month's theme is: Doubt.

StorySlam Oakland is a different kind of storytelling show, designed to make it easy to hear and tell true stories. We don't have a stage -- it's casual and fun. The audience gets to vote on the best open-mic story of the night. Two more seasoned storytellers will complement the open-mic stories from the audience. And, at StorySlam Oakland, we give away FREE DRINKS to all our open-mic storytellers! 

Put your name in the hat for a chance to tell your true story of five minutes (or less) on the theme. No reading or notes allowed. Tell it from memory or just wing it! You'll hear a bell to let you know when you must wrap it up. Win a free drink ticket if you get up there to tell.

Even if you're not ready to tell, you can still submit a few lines of your epic "Doubt" story on an Audience Participation Slip. The host may read it aloud (anonymously of course).

It's a lively competition, and a fun night for storytellers and listeners alike. 

Doors: 6:30 PM
Stories begin: 7:00 PM
1 intermission.

2ME4U: Men of Color Tell Unadulterated Truths

2ME4U is a live talk show format that invites meaningful conversation focused on intimate self-reflection. This series highlights the importance and power of self-reflection with the greater purpose of fostering community through shared vulnerability.  The first session will focus on redefining intimacy on our own terms, the limiting beliefs we tell ourselves, and how to incorporate into our daily relationships.

2ME4U explores a myriad of voices, life experiences, and wellness topics by which people can self-identify.  Denzel Herrera-Davis, founder of Create The Space, will host this live foundational series on self-exploration, sharing stories from his life and the lives of others.   

When was the last time you were truly intimate with yourself?
