About this event
Radical Honesty Weekend Workshop Amsterdam
23-25 January 2026
Workshop led by Certified Trainers, Tuulia Syvänen and Pete Jordan.
Live out loud and be unapologetically you!
What if you could express yourself fully?
What if you no longer felt the need to hide parts of yourself — whether joyful, ashamed, angry or scared?
This workshop invites you to move beyond your comfort zone and into your brave zone, to be real and to welcome every part of yourself.
Expect deep, real connections. Expect to feel both challenged and liberated.
Give others the opportunity to truly see you — and to like you (or dislike you) exactly as you are.
Who is this workshop for?
This Honesty Europe workshop is for you if:
- You want to experience more freedom in being yourself
- You’re ready to let go of shame, fear and the need for approval
- You want to use conflict creatively instead of resorting to blame
- You’d like to get confident in asking for what you want
- You want to heal relationships and let go of past anger and hurts
- You crave deeper love, connection and intimacy
This workshop is NOT for you if:
- You’d rather avoid difficult conversations
- You want to keep sugar-coating issues in your relationships
- You expect everyone (including yourself) to always be polite and agreeable
What happens in the workshop?
The workshop is experiential and experimental. It includes teaching, sharing in the group, facilitated conversations, paired and small group exercises, hot-seat work, grounding practices and more, all designed to help you integrate honesty and authenticity more and more into a way of life.
The core practice is honest sharing: noticing what is alive, sharing it and staying present with yourself and others.
We encourage people to allow sensations, thoughts and emotions to come and go.
We talk about topics often considered taboo — money, sex, resentment, attraction — nothing is off-limits.
We learn and practise distinguishing between thinking and noticing what is actually happening.
We explore how to express ourselves in new and different ways, whether through laughing, shouting, crying, smiling, sharing or by asking for what we want without any requirement of giving back.
“What do you notice happening in your body right now?” is a question we often ask. Noticing our physical sensations in the moment can help us to become more aware of our experience.
We learn to listen without fixing, allowing others to express themselves without interruption or advice.
We also have a sharing group after each event to encourage integration to your daily life and ongoing community.
The Honesty Europe way of working is informed by Radical Honesty, Gestalt therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Authentic Relating, Hakomi Somatic Mindful Psychotherapy, Voice Dialogue, Transformational Chairwork, Shinrin Yoku – Forest Bathing, Forest Mind and other somatic approaches.
Since 2015 we’ve guided thousands of people on their journeys towards open, honest communication. Again and again, we see that when people dare to be real, they build deeper connections, find greater self-acceptance, and create happier, more fulfilling lives beyond the workshop.
