A fresh-for-2026-realities redesign of the much-loved Life Architecture community learning and action series, this 4-month programme invites participants to collectively imagine and practice living in ways that are more alive with what we truly care about.
This will be a space to practice economies of mutuality and interdependence, rather than scarcity and singularity. Starting in March, will meet once a month for 4 months, with support prompts and resources for in-between.
Online, with option for a couple in-person meetups for those in Berlin.
The goal of the the Personal Compass series is to walk a small and committed cohort of folks from a starting point — what do I care about? what are my values? what are my intentions at this point in my life? — through to the first steps of how they could actually put those into practice for the movements that move them, and to do so in a sustainable, regenerative way (ie, not charging towards burnout in the first steps).
In-between, we practice dreaming and experimenting, two essential but oft-forgotten steps on the way to (as my longtime friend and co-organizer Kes always says) “doing-the-thing.” And rather than just solo-talking to a coach or reading our way through another self-help book or online course, we get to talk to other people along the way.
In the final lap, we’ll document our intentions and map a plan-of-action, including what support we might need to call in.
There’s a lot of power in daring to say things out loud to other people — even if I didn’t believe this on a spiritual level, there’s a lot of neuroscience to back it up. By having this process happen in and through a facilitated, conversation- and creativity-based space, folks not only get the benefit of verbal processing and naming things out loud, but also have conversation partners who are going through the same thing, get real-time feedback and support for their ideas, get inspired to dream a bit bigger or a bit wilder or a bit weirder, and even find co-conspirators for activating the things they are dreaming of and longing for.
Most importantly, though this four-month programme, we create a temporary community of care, practicing what interdependence can look like when we are moving towards what we are longing for — personally and collectively.
Using participatory, conversation- and creativity-based methods, we will explore some of these questions together:
