An informal, pressure-free chat

The initial chat usually takes around 15 minutes, but we set aside up to 30 minutes in case we need a little longer, so there is no rush or pressure on you. It gives us time to say hello, explain how the Society of Lost Souls works, and answer any initial questions you may have.

What you’re looking for

We’ll talk about what brought you here, when you’re available, and the kind of conversations you’re hoping to find. You only need to share what feels comfortable. There is no expectation that you discuss anything private or personal.

Thoughtful group matching

We keep our groups small, with no more than eight members in each group. The initial chat helps us consider which group may suit you best, based on what you’re looking for and when you’re available. Our aim is to create groups that feel comfortable, balanced, and welcoming.
