This circle is an 8-week journey for men interested in liberation, living meaningful lives, healing, and connection. It’s a place to practice and support mutual liberation. Through sharing our struggles, strength, and visions for a better way, we can forge new possibilities and begin to manifest them in the world. We can be models for a more liberatory masculinity and contribute to the well-being of all.

Esta serie brinda un espacio para conectar miembros hispanohablantes del Instituto Internacional de Focusing (TIFI). Es un espacio para aprender y expandir el conocimiento sobre Focusing y temas relacionados. El concepto de "Cafecitos" viene de la idea de estar en la casa de un amigo/a y conversar tomándose un café. Queremos que estos Cafecitos se sientan acogedores y que tú te sientas en casa durante estas entrevistas. Cada Cafecito tiene a un nuevo entrevistado quien compartirá su conocimiento sobre algún tema en especial con la comunidad hispanohablante.
