Stay Curious Live is an in-person two-day gathering in Toronto with Michael Bungay Stanier and a community of people who care about being more fully human in a world that is getting faster, lonelier, more fragmented, and more automated. Together, we’ll celebrate the 10th-anniversary of The Coaching Habit, and deepen what the book has made possible.

The event will take place on November 6-7, 2026.

The event will take place in Toronto at The Second City, 110 Harbour St, Toronto, ON M5J 0B6

This event is designed for facilitators, coaches, leaders, parents, educators, and curious humans who want more courage, more connection, and more practical skills for how they show up with themselves and others at work, at home, in coaching sessions, in classrooms, on teams, in families, and in everyday moments.
