The Remarkable Gift of Being Wrong
The Remarkable Gift of Being Wrong
The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present “The Remarkable Gift of Being Wrong” — A Valentine’s Season Keynote on Conflict, Connection & Conscious Relating by Rachel Weir on Friday, Feb. 6 at 7 p.m. at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.
What if conflict was the doorway to connection? This is the time of year when we celebrate relationships — romantic, familial, professional, and everything in between. And if you’re partnered, you already know this: a healthy relationship doesn’t mean no conflict. It means learning how to navigate conflict skillfully.
Most of us were never taught how.
In this intimate, provocative keynote, Rachel Weir shares a deeply human story of transformation — one that taught her, in no uncertain terms, that certainty is the enemy of connection. What begins as a moment of righteous clarity takes an unexpected turn, revealing how quickly our need to be right can sever the very intimacy we crave.
With levity and cringe, humility and depth, Rachel explores how our addiction to certainty shows up not just in romantic relationships, but in families, workplaces, and culture at large — and how being willing to be wrong can reopen the door to trust, repair, and real human connection.
Within this simple, honest story are the seeds of a solution — not just for our relationships, but perhaps for many of the divisions we’re facing in the world today.
Following the keynote, the evening will include a live Q&A, and an opportunity to gently drop into a guided connection practice together — a chance to feel, not just understand, what changes when curiosity replaces certainty.
Whether you’re partnered, single, healing, hopeful, or simply human — this event is for you.
