Talking Stick Forum
Everybody hurts inside from time to time. Everybody see different faces of life and experiences uniquely challenging situations. We all fight our personal battles, some fiercer than others. Sometimes we win, sometimes otherwise.
Talking Stick is a service that puts a figurative TALKINGSTICK in the hands of participants (The TALKINGSTICK is a tool used in many Native American Traditions when a council or gathering is called. It allows all members to present their Sacred Point of View. The TalkingStick is passed from person to person as they speak. Whoever holds the TalkingStick has within their hands the sacred power of words.)
We provides a great telephone forum for people to share their life experiences. In today’s technologically savvy world, our voices get lost in texts, emails and surfing the web. TalkingStick brings back real conversations with real people who really want to talk and listen. TalkingStick revolutionizes the new era of communication by revitalizing the power of our voice.
We want to make a difference in people's lives by giving them a better quality of life while providing a talking forum for peer to peer support. We strongly believe that we can support those in need of being heard. Talking stick provides daily calls on different topics, People can join the calls and participate by talking or simply listening.
We have trained seasoned hosts to conduct the calls to ensure a respectful conversation. The calls are not videoed or recorded. People can even choose to join as anonymous. People can share their experiences, through our sharing circle via audio or video.
The vision of TalkingStick is simple. We are using our modern day technology to bring back the ancient way of communicating, in a figurative circle using our voices. In these circles, we hope to create a sense of community, belonging, respect and support.
We will have a phone lines throughout the day with different topics so members can choose and call in to speak with other members. The call is not recorded. Members can stay anonymous if they choose. The topics are unlimited about challenges and triumphs in life. Here are some:
# Prescription Drugs
# Drugs
# PTSD
# Chronic Dieting
# Nutrition
# Power of Gratitude
# Body Shaming
# Eating Disorders
# And many more!
The call is one hour long. TS will have our trained moderators to manage the flow. This product is designed to have peer to peer sharing experience, who has been there, done that. TS will not provide professional opinions or advice. TS is a platform provider. Members can also share their creativity such as a song, a story, a joke. A member can read, sing, tell the joke or share new creative ideas by simply uploading a video or audio. Other members listen and give instant
feedback.
