Let's look at money like you never have before!
That eternal stack of online shopping boxes.
New Iphone? New Iphone!
Trading time against money, money against time.
How are we really paying for guestlist spots – and everything else?
We will consider money not as payment and value storage tool but as a sickly addiction and ourselves as its dependents. We'll unveil and discuss invisible and insidious forces that shape our
priorities, decisions, behaviors - and strategies on how to escape them.
This workshop aims to provide a sympathetic and open circle for sharing experiences and
struggles around topics not discussed often:
Money, consumption, wages, employment, overtime, stress, impulse buying, hoarding, buyer's remorse etc.
I will give a short intro about the subject and introduce a selection of concepts into conversation over time and share stories from previous iterations of this workshop from other contexts.
We will form 2-n circles depending on the number of participants.
You will talk to (friendly) strangers about things you would not and possibly cannot talk about with friends or even family - and they will do the same.
This workshop will give some answers but will ask you a lot of questions to think about afterwards.
Participants have confirmed that it has triggered deeper thought processes and brought to light challenges that they were not able to pinpoint before.
I encourage you to come with an open mind, to speak openly and to perceive, not judge, the statements and questions of other participants.
I will run this workshop in English - but if you feel more comfortable talking in German in the circles, you may form German-speaking circles.
Middle-aged (recently) white (since forever) family (recently) man (since forever). Looks like a functioning, upright member of society to the untrained eye.
Climbed the escalation ladder from business school to turbo-capitalism via 60-hour workweek, burnout and self-employment. Again and again stumbled and fell over all issues money, what it does to and for people and myself. Always got up again.
I love making complex things easy and easy things funny, absurd or complicated.
I love moderating and facilitation, opening and filling unusual spaces, starting and joining unusual conversations.
