Small Group Guidelines
- Keep your sharing focused on your own thoughts and feelings. Limit your sharing to 3–5 minutes.
- There will be NO cross-talk. Cross-talk is when two individuals engage in conversation excluding all others. Each person is free to express his or her feelings without interruptions.
- We are here to support one another, not “fix” one another.
