This workshop invites facilitators to slow down and examine what lies beneath the surface of that encounter using  both, The Iceberg Model of Culture developed by anthropologist Edward T. Hall and the reflection framework of Martin Baro's Liberation psychology and Paulo Freire's pedagogical stance.  Our assumptions, histories, and social structures shape how attachment is understood, expressed, and received across different families and communities.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color:transparent;color:#000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-style:normal;font-weight:400;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eThrough three facilitation moments drawn from real COSP practice, participants will explore situations when culture, identity, gender, and historical or social experiences become present in the group. These may include moments when differences in gender identity or gendered expectations between facilitators and participants become salient, conversations about parenting and childrearing across diverse family structures, including LGBTQ+ and homoparental families, and moments when lived experiences of race and racism enter the discussion. Using the familiar COSP stance of Relationship–Affect–Reflection and “Ask, Don’t Tell,” participants will explore how to stay experience-near, “peel the layers,” and remain curious about what may lie beneath the surface without assuming its meaning. The focus will be on learning to lean in when culture, identity, or history emerges while coming back to the relational core of COSP: Where is the child or other person on the Circle, and what is the specific need?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color:transparent;color:#000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-style:normal;font-weight:400;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eParticipants will leave with a deeper understanding of how culture informs COSP facilitation and explore practical tools, like Relationship-Affect-Reflection and Ask, Don’t Tell for holding the model with enough flexibility to meet families where their histories actually are.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"border-radius:4px;border:1px solid #DFE3E9;margin:2em 0;overflow:hidden;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color:#009D94;padding:10px 20px;\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"color:#ffffff;font-family:'Inter',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12px;letter-spacing:0.12em;margin:0;padding:0;text-transform:uppercase;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\" style=\"margin-left:0;margin-right:auto;width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #DFE3E9;color:#009D94;font-family:'Inter',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;letter-spacing:0.08em;padding:14px 20px;text-transform:uppercase;vertical-align:top;width:38%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePacific (US)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #DFE3E9;color:#233342;font-family:'Inter',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:15px;padding:14px 20px 14px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThursday, 05 November 2026 — 6:00 AM PST\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #DFE3E9;color:#009D94;font-family:'Inter',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;letter-spacing:0.08em;padding:14px 20px;text-transform:uppercase;vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUK (GMT)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #DFE3E9;color:#233342;font-family:'Inter',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:15px;padding:14px 20px 14px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThursday, 05 November 2026 — 2:00 PM GMT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"color:#009D94;font-family:'Inter',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;letter-spacing:0.08em;padding:14px 20px;text-transform:uppercase;vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAustralia (AET)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"color:#233342;font-family:'Inter',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:15px;padding:14px 20px 14px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFriday, 06 November 2026 — 1:00 AM AEDT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Circle of Security International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67346354503929,"sku":"Nov2026 Workshop","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/7403\/6473\/files\/november-2026-workshop.png?v=1792002818","url":"https:\/\/www.circleofsecurityinternational.com\/products\/nov2026-workshop","provider":"Circle of Security International","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
