Drawing on over forty years of candid and surprising conversations with his patients\, Stephen will ask\, what gets in the way of our falling in love? And what must we do to stay there? \nWe will meet the woman who can’t post her wedding invitations but then\, decades later\, can’t decide whether to get divorced; the friendship group that explodes when an adulterous affair begins; and the man whose partner’s death is almost too much to bear. \nStephen’s unerring ability is to locate what ails the heartsick\, through hours of talking and listening. He will elegantly show how we can deploy the agonies of love as tools for understanding. \nThe labour of love is the work of a lifetime but in finally learning to see ourselves and our world clearly\, we find we are truly ready to love one another. \nTickets to this event are at a £15 discount for members of How To +\, and members can also watch the livestream for free. \nPraise for the work of Stephen Grosz: \n‘Writing with sympathy and insight\, Grosz distils years of work into a series of slim\, piercing chapters that read like a combination of Chekhov and Oliver Sacks’ – New York Times \n‘I was enthralled . . . profound and moving\, large ideas packed into a slim volume’ –Observer URL:https://usa.stephengrosz.com/events/how-to-livestream-london-2/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20250929T180000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20250929T193000 DTSTAMP:20260521T021238 CREATED:20250712T141924Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250712T141924Z UID:5189-1759168800-1759174200@usa.stephengrosz.com SUMMARY:The Conduit\, Covent Garden\, London DESCRIPTION:Through stories from the therapy room\, Stephen Grosz invites us to reflect on the emotional work behind real human connection. \nWhy is love so difficult?
