A PLACE FOR STORIES
THAT DON’t FIT.
What do we do with the mystical experiences that appear in our lives?
Those joyous moments of wonder that flood our hearts with a singular awareness: the world is infinitely more special than we allow ourselves to believe.
We all have access to magic—every single one of us—even though our culture holds no space for such expression. When we gather in community to share our tales of miracle, we make it easier for others to do the same. We allow these brilliant experiences to gently reshape our reality, making the “impossible” appear more readily.
We begin to remember: our world is as magical as we want it to be.
OUR FORMAT
The structure for My Dentist’s Son is simple. It unfolds over three distinct segments.
We start each gathering with a brief talk, then invite stories from those who feel compelled to share. After that, we open our circle to discussion and reflection. The entire affair lasts about ninety minutes, start to finish.
There is never an obligation to speak, ever. To listen, with an open heart, is to create the foundation needed for these stories to be received and for their magic to be felt.
My Dentist’s Son was founded in 2018 by Matthew Rudnicki, a writer and creator who believes in the transformative power of the stories we carry. He is also the founder of Brand Animism, an intentional design studio based in Vermont, where he lives with his partner and three children.
