Authentische Ehrlichkeit: Tiefe, Verbindung & Verbindlichkeit
**Authentische Ehrlichkeit - Ein EinfĂźhrungs-Workshop**
**đś Wertschätzungsbeitrag vor Ort: 10-20 Euro (nach eigenen MĂśglichkeiten)**
.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
.
Gute Freundschaften leben von Ehrlichkeit & Vertrauen.
.
Gute Freunde kennen sich, wie ihre linke Westentasche: ihr Leben, ihre GefĂźhle, ihre WĂźnsche, ihre Einstellungen, ihre guten & ihre schlechten Seiten.
.
Gute Freunde kĂśnnen âJaâ sagen, wenn es ein âJaâ ist; und sie kĂśnnen âNeinâ sagen, wenn es ein âNeinâ ist.
.
Gute Freunde kĂśnnen sich sagen, was sie aneinander mĂśgen, und sie kĂśnnen sich sagen, was sie nicht so toll finden.
.
**đ Ehrlichkeit als Basis guter Beziehungen**
Ehrlichkeit ist die Basis, damit Nähe und Verbindung entstehen kann.
.
Sich hinter Masken und (unbewussten) LĂźgen zu verstecken steht dieser Verbindung im Weg.
.
Ich glaube alle Beziehungen im Leben werden vertrauensvoller, wenn man miteinander ehrlich ist: Liebensbeziehungen, Arbeitsbeziehungen, Freundschaften und selbst die Beziehung zur Bedienung im CafĂŠ.
.
**đ Dieser Abend ist eine EinfĂźhrung in die Ehrlichkeit.**
Du erfährst,
* warum âLĂźgenâ mehr ist als das bewusste Verdrehen von Fakten.
* wie Du im Leben mehr von dem bekommst, was Du wirklich willst, weil Du Dich auf Ehrlichkeit einlässt.
An diesem Abend werden wir in kleinen Schritten Ehrlichkeit Ăźben, auch in unbequemen Situationen.
.
Du nimmst praktische EhrlichkeitsĂźbungen mit, die Du sofort im Alltag und in Deinen Freundschaften umsetzen kannst.
**đ§Ą Zwei Worte Ăźber Ehrlichkeit**
Ich habe mich lange versteckt, wollte meine schwachen Seiten, meine Ăngste, GefĂźhle & Unzufriedenheiten nicht zeigen â immer mit der Angst, abgelehnt zu werden.
.
Irgendwann stieĂ ich auf Radikale Ehrlichkeit und buchte ein Wochenendseminar. Es war so befreiend!
.
Meine Erfahrungen findest Du hier: [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/radikale-ehrlichkeit-erfahrungsbericht](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/radikale-ehrlichkeit-erfahrungsbericht)
.
Danach habe ich das 8-Tages-Retreat gemacht, wo es wirklich ans Eingemachte ging.
.
Ich habe festgestellt, dass Ehrlichkeit meine Beziehungen zu anderen Menschen deutlich verbessert.
.
Gleichzeitig fĂźhle ich mich deutlich wohler, weil ich mich nicht mehr verstecke. Ich bekomme meine Probleme gelĂśst (weil ich darĂźber spreche) und meine WĂźnsche erfĂźllt (weil ich darĂźber spreche).
.
Dieser Workshop ist mein Einstiegsbeitrag zu mehr Ehrlichkeit in Beziehungen und Freundschaften.

**â° Die TĂźren sind offen ab 18:15 Uhr.**
Deinen Mantel aufhängen, WC, eine Runde schwatzen und los geht's...
.
**â Darf ich wiederkommen?**
Es gibt nur wenige Veranstaltungen, bei denen man wirklich miteinander ins Gespräch kommt. Hier schon, mit Tiefgang.
.
Einige kommen immer wieder, um die kleinen Ăbungen nochmals im gesicherten Rahmen auszuprobieren oder aus Neugier, wie andere ihre authentische Ehrlichkeit leben.
.
Das Workshopprogramm ist auch jedesmal etwas anderes - je nach Gruppe und zunehmenden Erfahrungen.
.
**đ Was bringst Du mit?**
* Etwas zu trinken (z.B. deine Wasserflasche, keinen Alkohol!)

SU&W Monday Evening in Mitte
**\*\*\*Look for us in the second-gloor bar & lounge! Just past the "fireplace" seating area.\*\*\***
Writing can feel like a solitary experience, but it doesn't have to be! Writing in the company of others can be surprisingly inspiring, productive, and comforting.
Writers of all types and levels are welcome. Whether you're writing a novel, a memoir, poetry, journaling, working on your thesis, or even catching up on emails, all are welcome.
We do things a little differently on Monday evenings. We start with an introduction round, then we will do 45 minutes of writing, break and share how it went, and then dive into the next 45-minute session.
**For space reasons, we are limited to a certain number of attendees, so please update your RSVP if you can't come**.
In between sessions, we have a Telegram chat: [https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw](https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw)

Fakten, Fakes & Emotionen
Der Stammtisch beginnt um 19:00 Uhr der **Vortrag um 19:30**.
**Fakten, Fakes & Emotionen**
Fakten zählen â oder nicht?
In einer Welt der Informationsflut entscheiden immer weniger Argumente, sondern pure Emotionen. Fake News und deren Verbreiter:innen nutzen gezielt unsere GefĂźhle, um Desinformation viral zu pushen, attackieren mit voller Absicht Demokratie und gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt. Ein exzellentes Negativ-Beispiel erleben wir leider auch in den USA.
Warum glauben Menschen lieber Falschmeldungen als Wissenschaft oder belegbaren Fakten? Warum ist niemand vor Fakes sicher?
Falls wieder einmal die Desinformationswellen erdrĂźckend Ăźber uns zusammenbrechen, kĂśnnen professionelle Faktenchecker:innen oft mit Fakten, Methoden und Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe unterstĂźtzen - wie zum Beispiel auch die Artikel des rein durch Crowdfunding finanzierten Anti-Fake-News-Blogs Volksverpetzer, der auf allen groĂen SoMe-Plattformen und mit eigener App präsent ist.
**Marcello V. Orlik:** Als BWL-Dino mit starkem Wirtschafts-Background, hätte sich Marcello V. Orlik auch noch vor 10 Jahren nicht vorstellen kÜnnen, dass nicht nur Logik, die Klimakatastrophe und wissenschaftliche Fakten mit aller Leidenschaft verteidigt werden mßssen. sondern tatsächlich auch eine signifikante Portion Aufklärung, Journalismus und Politik fßr ihn im Alltag unabdingbar werden - als Relations Manager beim Volksverpetzer.
**Forma**
Das Edutainment-Format "Skeptics in the Pub" kommt ursprßnglich aus dem UK und verbindet unterhaltsame wissenschaftliche Vorträge mit Diskussion und Socializing in entspannter Atmosphäre
Seit einigen Jahren gibt es auch im deutschsprachigen Raum regelmäĂige Veranstaltungsreihen u.a. in KĂśln, Wien und jetzt auch in Berlin

You Exist Too Much by Zaina Arafat

Location: The Goat River South
219 S High St, Columbus, OH 43215
Street parking is free on Sundays
[Menu](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/686d3ed16745133042482c5f/t/68ff654dbb03b96875430bde/1761568077220/all_brunch-20250311.pdf)
Book summary:
On a hot day in Bethlehem, a twelve-year-old Palestinian-American girl is yelled at by a group of men outside the Church of the Nativity. She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: 'You exist too much,' she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer.
