The Listening Society

A room full of people who are listening.

Most of the internet is built to make you talk. This is built to make you listen, and to make you better at it: a community, a library, live sessions, and the courses, in one place.

Joining is free. It stays free for as long as you want it to.

What membership is

The community

A place on Circle for people who take listening seriously, which turns out to be a rarer room than you'd expect.

The courses

How To Speak So That People Want To Listen now lives here, and nowhere else. Members have it as part of Silver membership.

Live events

Sessions with Julian and with guests, where the practice is done rather than described.

The library

Talks, exercises and writing, added to as the work develops.

Free, or Silver

The free tier gives you the community and a good deal of the content, and it's not a countdown to a sales call. Silver membership adds the courses, the full library and the live events, at £38 a month or £360 a year.

My seven-hour self-completion course, How To Speak So That People Want To Listen, now lives exclusively here. That was a deliberate move: it belongs in a place for people with a shared interest in listening, speaking and sound, not on a generic platform.
