Amsterdam Radical Honesty Meetup

For the second time Honesty Europe is offering a retreat dedicated to healing your relationship to money

You are worth it – Transform Your Money Beliefs in Syvilla Finland, 19-22 March

We’ll spend four days and three nights together in our lakeside retreat center Syvilla, which is surrounded by a lush forest.

The retreat will include daily workshop sessions as well as free time for walking in the forest, dipping in the (cold) lake, soaking in the jacuzzi, sitting in the nightly sauna (in our wood-burning sauna).
Our goal is to explore and share our money beliefs, heal what is unfinished within ourselves regarding money, and exploring the meaning that we give to money.

We will look at the money beliefs we learn as children from our parents (that may be helping or hindering our happiness).
We will explore how we create misery for ourselves with money via overspending, underspending, being greedy or tight, charging too little for our work, not feeling worthy of the money we receive and overworking / overdelivering or underdelivering, etc.

We also want money to be less of a taboo for you and others.
We will share about how much we earn, own and will or have inherited and more so what feelings, sensations and meanings we attach to these numbers.

This retreat is for you if:

• you want to experience more freedom from in your life
• you want to let go of shame, fear and attachment to approval around money
• you desire to understand what money beliefs you learned from your family of original and from your community
• want to heal your relationship to money
• you want to look at and work with your unhealthy patterns and behaviors around money
• you yearn to feel free and open to receive, earn and spend money

The retreat is not for you if you:

• don’t want to tell the truth
• you want to maximize your earning at all costs
• don’t want to hear participants expressing themselves loudly at times
• wish to blame others for your money issues instead of working on yourself

How to Live, Love, Laugh & Be Happy & Completely Ruin Life as You Know It
Honesty Europe’s work is based on direct communication and vulnerable sharing that leads to intimacy.
For many of us honesty is kind of scary fun that turns out better than you thought it would.
Lying is work and a pain in the ass and makes you often lonesome and miserable as hell.

We claim that lying is the major source of all human stress. It wears us out and eventually kills us.
When people engage honestly, energy that was wasted maintaining a performance to make an impression is suddenly available for real creativity in playing together. When we admit our pretenses we can refresh our relationships and powerfully create new ways of living together.

What we do
On each day, we’ll do some yoga, meditation and workshop sessions. The sessions will include a deeper dive into your money beliefs and values you attach to money. By exploring through discussions, sharing and exercises about your money issues, our goal is for you to feel more free, spacious and with agency around money matters.
We’ll be looking into patterns, behaviors and our core beliefs around money and the meaning we give to money (or the lack of it). We will also explore how we sabotage our opportunity to earn good money and/or enjoy the money we have.
We’ll do group and paired exercises and might also do hot seat work around money beliefs and healing our currently unhealthy beliefs or patterns around money.

Workshop on How to Live, Love, Laugh & Be Happy & Completely Ruin Life as You Know It
Radical Honesty is direct communication that leads to intimacy. Honesty is kind of scary fun that turns out better than you thought it would. Lying is work and a pain in the ass and makes you lonesome as hell and eventually kills the connection, love and intimacy with your partner.
We claim that lying is the major source of all human stress and makes relationships superficial and many of us lonely in our relationships. It wears us out and eventually kills us. When people engage honestly, energy that was wasted maintaining a performance to make an impression is suddenly available for real creativity in playing together. When we admit our pretences, we can refresh our relationships and powerfully create new ways of living together. That is the not so secret of Radical Honesty.

What do others say about the retreat?
“We did the Couples Retreat as a preparation for our wedding without knowing what would come up. Both of us had attended workshops separately before but never one together. But it was for our relationship such a benefit. We strengthened our trust, vulnerability, appreciation and love towards each other even more, and I really feel good about getting married now. I highly recommended this retreat for everybody who wants to deepen their connections.”
–Pia (Austria)

“If you want to stop bypassing the hard and scary stuff with your partner and look straight at it in a safe and supportive environment, and with competent and compassionate people at your side coaching you through it, then the Couples Retreat with Pete and Tuulia is just right for you.”
–Anastasia (Germany)

“I took a part in the Couples retreat in Finland. What a great idea! To have 8 couples staying together, sharing together, seeing how other people create their intimate relationships. Stunning location in the middle of nowhere in Finland, in the forest, with a wood-fired sauna by the lake. Sessions in the morning to explore and deepen my relationship, lazy afternoons to enjoy berries, mushrooms and rowing boat! Great facilitation from Pete and Tuulia as always. I want more of this quality time in my life. Highly recommended.”
–Daniel (U.K.)

“Pete & Tuulia have a lot of experience in communicating and relating successfully and they’re great at teaching it, too! If you want to learn how to create and maintain intimate relationships and have a good time doing it, join a Couples Retreat!”
–Michael (Germany)

“Behind every great relationship are difficult and uncomfortable conversations we rarely get to see. Great relationships don’t just fall on our laps. They require people to move through their fears and insecurities and do the hard work to move wounds into healing. I feel touched and inspired after witnessing what I judge to be great relationships having difficult conversations, getting over their shit and reaching places of forgiveness and love again. I super duper recommend Pete & Tuulia’s Couples Retreat to anyone who wants to deepen their ability to see and be seen by their partner, warts and all.”
–Rose (U.K.)

“I judge Tuulia & Pete to be very talented workshop leaders. In the Couples Retreat I attended, they created a wonderful, personal space — also by showing themselves as the imperfect humans they are — in which sharing whatever feelings and thoughts was very easy and so welcomed! High recommendation!”
–Taranee (Germany)

“During the Couples Retreat led by Pete and Tuulia, I learned so much about myself in relation to not only my partner but to basically all the people around me. I greatly recommend this course for everyone who wants to express more frustration in order to spend less time feeling it.”
–Katrien, (The Netherlands)

“The Couples Retreat was highly transformative for me (and I imagine my wife as well). I was transfixed on Tuulia and Pete’s ability to put into practice games and exercises that brought Radical Honesty to life. I was equally amazed by how vulnerable everyone was willing to be with one another so quickly after meeting for the first time.
When all was said and done – and much was said and done – I was deeply moved and impressed with the personal connections I made with everyone involved with the work and the workshop. I left the experience having seen attendees make huge leaps forward in their own personal work – myself included. I believe my wife and I built a toolbox of communication techniques we could use after leaving Finland. I understood that observing and reporting are key foundations to RH. I understood that with subtle and important language changes, I could change the way I communicate (dare I say improve the way I communicate?). The experience was simply profound for me, and I imagine also for my wife and everyone else who was there. I was hooked: I knew I wanted more RH workshops in my life.”
–Jesse (United States)

### Radical Honesty Weekend Workshop Amsterdam March

A workshop about Living Out Loud, Being Happy, Getting over Shit and Living in the Present

Radical Honesty is about living in the Here and Now. It is a communication tool and lifestyle, which leads you to connect more deeply with others by expressing our fear, anger, appreciation and whatever is arising in the moment.

Content of the training:
This workshop includes lectures, directed conversations, paired exercises, small group exercises, hot seat work, meditation and much more to help you learn how to relax into intimacy based on being open and honest. All this is geared toward having you learn and practice the distinction between thinking and noticing; the difference between interpreting reality and actually noticing it through direct experience.
Then you learn to share what we notice about the reality of your own experience with others, and have it be the basis for true intimacy—learning to love being and love other beings. In this workshop, you can express yourself by laughing, shouting, crying, smiling, sharing and by asking for what you want.

This workshop is for you if:
・you want to experience more freedom in your life
・you want to let go of shame, fear and attachment to approval
・you are looking for using conflict creatively and want to go beyond blame
・you desire to learn the art of asking for what you want
・you want to heal your relationships and find forgiveness
・you yearn deeper love, connection & intimacy
