“They’ve given me a secret weapon when it comes to socializing.” — Mandy, Vancouver

The solution for social anxiety

I am someone who struggles with small talk and group social events, yet I really love people. Conscious Conversations is the solution I have always looked for. I have a deck with me at all times so if my social anxiety ever kicks up or conversation lulls, I say “hey do you want to play a game?” What’s so cool about CC is that you can play it with someone you just met or someone you’ve known your whole life. It has been amazing for family hang outs. I have had conversations with my mom that I haven’t had my whole life. I am so grateful these cards exist because they’ve given me a secret weapon when it comes to socializing. I feel so much more at ease and so much more connected.
Mandy · Vancouver, Canada

A game for the modern day philosopher

I’ve always had a philosopher’s mind and have often found myself pondering the deeper questions in life like “Is there a God?” and “Does an afterlife really exist?” I love that this game has a great deal of spiritual and philosophical questions in it. If you are looking for a deep conversation game, this is it. You won’t find one deeper or more inquisitive than this. Believe me, I’ve tried so many other decks and really nothing compares to Conscious Conversations.
Marguerite · Paris, France

I’ve tried them all & this one’s the best!

I am a HUGE fan of these cards. Having tried all the other ones out there and finding them a bit hit and miss, these cards from Conscious Conversations are honestly straight FIRE. Every single one of the cards is pure conversation gold. I take them to every dinner I go to or host, and on trips away. It really helps steer the conversation away from the usual small talk and gossip to deep and meaningful conversation that brings everyone closer. I’ve honestly had some of the best, soul-quenching conversations through answering these questions and have created new friendships that will last a lifetime. The other great thing is that you can use these as journal prompts when you’re by yourself! I highly recommend them!

I never leave home without this game

I travel all over the world for work. I am constantly meeting new people, and the same old intro questions get old really fast. Ever since I bought this game, I have quite honestly never left home without them. They are the best at creating really (and I mean really) interesting and amazing conversations. Doesn’t matter if you are using them with family, friends or total strangers, you are pretty much guaranteed to have a mind-blowing experience. I love how much I get to learn about others (and myself) when using these cards.

Little cards, a lot of punch

It’s easy to go days, weeks, or even months without pausing to reflect inward. I think of Conscious Conversations as a gentle reminder to be more self-aware from time to time. It’s broken the ice, reignited old friendships, and brought me closer with loved ones more times than I can count, now. These little cards pack a lot of introspective punch!

I LOVE Conscious Conversations!

I have a few decks that I have placed in my living and community spaces. I also love having a few cards in my purse at all times to help when I’m out at social events. I even take them to meetings with me! We could all use more meaningful connections and conversations amongst friends, family, and even strangers and I just love how easy these cards make it to create amazing convos with others!
Tina · San Francisco, California

The perfect ice-breaker

There are a lot of conversation starters out there, but these are by FAR the best I’ve purchased. The questions are unique, thought provoking, and help foster deep connection. There is no small talk to be found in this deck, and every time I pull a card with someone, I’m delighted to learn more about their true self. I highly recommend these for dinner parties, gatherings with friends, a dinner at home with a loved one, or even alone for journaling prompts or personal reflection!

So magical

I LOVE the Conscious Conversations cards. I did them with my family over the holidays and they led to some serious bonding and opening up that I have never seen happen between us. So magical. Also have done them with my boyfriend and close friends. I want to bring them out at any opportunity!
Juliana

Best icebreaker game ever!

We’ve played it on the river in Yuba, in Hawaii during a storm, and during a wellness retreat. Thoughtful, deep questions that bring out intimacy building stories it would take years of friendship to hear. Thought provoking, fun, and fabulously bonding.

The deck has a way of traveling.

Hey Jules! I’m at a bar in Jerusalem and just told everyone about Conscious Conversations but I forgot my deck! Can you send me like 3 things to say so I can give them a taste?

Curtis

I feel your game is just an extension of you. A game with a soul! It works.

Jeremy

Seriously, we’re on the most embarrassing moment question… so much laughter going on. These cards are great.

Literally every single card is straight fire. I had another deck, but that doesn’t even compare to this one. Well done!!

Someone gifted me a deck of Conscious Conversations at Burning Man 2018 and I’ve been trying to find where they are from ever since.

Via Instagram

I love your game btw. It’s been so profound.

Lexi

Your cards have played an epic role of serendipity in my life. From Burning Man to New Year’s, I ended up with the same card twice: “Is there such a thing as free will, or is life determined by fate?”

Via Instagram

She gives me what ended up being one of the best gifts ever, in the form of cards called Conscious Conversations. My type of game.

TEDx TEDAI

Where big ideas are shared, the conversations keep going after the talks.

Conscious Conversations has partnered with TEDx and TEDAI events, putting our questions in the hands of the most curious minds from all over the world.

TEDx TEDxSanFrancisco 2019 · “Dare to Know” Big ideas shouldn’t end when the talks do. For “Dare to Know,” we designed a custom deck that turned a theatre full of strangers into a room full of real conversations. At the after party, guests and speakers swapped stories, challenged each other’s thinking and made the kind of connections people come to TEDx for.
TEDAI TEDAI San Francisco 2023 · The very first TEDAI The brightest minds in AI spent the day talking about machines. That night, our cards brought the conversation back to people: what we hope for, what we fear, what makes us human. As an official collaborator, we sent top speakers from around the world home with a reminder that the best connections are still face to face.
