"Wer bin ich und wer bin ich mit dir? Wer bist du und was sehe ich in dir? Was könnte aus uns werden?" Ein empathischer Dialog. Grenzen wahrnehmen. Das Unbekannte erforschen. Alternative "Ich's" ausprobieren. Mit Neugier, mit Offenheit. Ein Raum für unsere Geschichten in Transformation. Dieser Schreib-Workshop bietet Frauen einen kreativen Rahmen, in dem wir uns in unserem verschieden und doch gemeinsam Sein zelebrieren und dabei gegenseitig ermutigen, im Handeln unser Potential zu entfalten. \*\*\* Ich bin: Joana (sie/ihr). Musikerin. Kulturwissenschaftlerin, mit literaturwissenschaftlichem Schwerpunkt. Seit Februar 2024 in Ausbildung als Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie. Durch diverse positive Erfahrungen als Teilnehmerin von (Schreib)kreisen für Frauen sowie mit großem Interesse besuchten Seminaren und Workshops offline und online, ist nun der Herzenswunsch entstanden, selbst auf lokaler Ebene - und in kreativer Gestalt - einen solchen Raum zu öffnen und leiten. Die amerikanische Sprecherin und Autorin Peggy Tabor Millin bringt meine eigenen Erlebnisse und Prozesse mit folgender Betrachtung auf den Punkt: "Wir müssen uns nicht selbst analysieren oder Erinnerungen hervorkramen oder an der Selbstverbesserung arbeiten. Wir müssen nur bereit sein zu lernen, wer wir sind und was die Tiefe unserer Seele wirklich ausdrücken will und muss. Während wir unser Schreiben in einem sicheren Kreis teilen, lernen wir, diesem Prozess und damit uns selbst zu vertrauen." \*\*\* Da die Plätze begrenzt sind, melde dich bitte an unter: transformativesschreiben@gmx.net \*\*\* Bitte mitbringen: \- Stift\(e\) und Papier oder eigenes Journal \- einen kleinen Gegenstand für den Kreis \(z\.B\. etwas aus der Natur oder von Bedeutung für dich in diesem Moment\) \- Warme Socken oder Hausschuhe \*\*\* Teilnahme auf Spendenbasis Dieser Schreib-Workshop bietet Frauen einen kreativen Rahmen, in dem wir uns in unserem verschieden und doch gemeinsam Sein zelebrieren und dabei gegenseitig ermutigen, im Handeln unser Potential zu entfalten.

Die Treffen finden hybrid statt, also online und vor Ort. Den Link für meinen digitalen Raum schicke ich am **Tag des Treffens** per Meetup-Mail an alle Teilnehmerinnen - schaut also bitte in euer Postfach bei Meetup! :-) Wir werden lesen, diskutieren, Erfahrungen austauschen, voneinander lernen und uns mit Themen kritisch auseinander setzen. Mitbringen braucht ihr nur das jeweilige Buch. Euch erwartet ein hoffentlich geselliger, inspirierender und unterhaltsamer Abend. Zum 23.04. lesen wir "Aigainst White Feminism" von Rafia Zakaria. Ich freue mich auf euch!

**Das vierte Treffen** Wir lieben Romane! Wir diskutieren alle vier bis sechs Wochen im Prenzlauer Berg-Café en passant über ein Buch, das wir gelesen haben. Unseren Lesestoff wählen wir demokratisch aus. Bestseller, Geheimtipp oder Lieblingsbuch – wir entscheiden bei unseren Treffen gemeinsam, welchen Titel wir für den nächsten Monat auf die Agenda nehmen. Die Teilnahme ist auf 12 Personen begrenzt, weil sich in einem größeren Kreis leider nicht gut diskutieren lässt. Und hier das Buch für's nächste Treffen. **Dorothee Elmiger, Die HOLLÄNDERINNEN** Dorothee Elmigers nimmt den realen Fall zweier Holländerinnen, die 2014 beim Wandern in Panama verschwanden und von denen später nur Skelette gefunden wurden zum Ausgangspunkt ihres schmalen Buches von nur 160 Seiten. Der Fall der verschwundenen Frauen führt eine Gruppe von Menschen, angeführt von einem Theatermacher, in den Dschungel und die Geschichte wuchert aus in ein Chaos von Gedanken, Erfahrungen und Reflexionen, die wild und verwirrend sind wie der Urwald selbst. Es ist kein leichtes Buch, eher ein intellektuelles Spiel mit Verweisen auf Literatur des Grauens und die Probleme des Erzählens. Es wurde mit Literaturpreisen überhäuft, bietet jede Menge Stoff für Deutungen, mag gefallen oder abgelehnt werden - ist also das Richtige für eine angeregte Diskussion.

**Veranstaltungsort:** Café Amelie Pappelallee 11 10437 Berlin Nächste **U-Bahn-Station**: U2 Eberswalder Straße (4 Gehminuten) **Start:** 09:10 Uhr **Einlass:** ab 09:00 Uhr Liebe Berliner Unternehmer, wir brechen derzeit alle Besucher-Rekorde bei unseren Meetups im Prenzlauer Berg und hoffen, dass im April auch noch das Wetter mitspielt, damit wir einige der Gespräche ins Freie verlagern können. ;-) Erneut verschlägt es uns in eines der am besten bewerteten Cafés in Berlin: dem Café Amelie im Prenzlauer Berg. Wie auf dem Bild bereits ersichtlich "streckt" sich das Café, was uns eine besonders geeignete Basis für intensiven Austausch zwischen den Teilnehmern ermöglicht. Darüber hinaus gibt es hervorragenden Kaffee sowie Gebäck- und Kuchen-Spezialitäten, vielleicht sogar in einem besonderen Combo-Deal für BNB-Teilnehmer. ;-) Vor Ort gibt es wie gewohnt frische Geschäftskontakte, neue Denkansätze und interessante Kooperationsmöglichkeiten. Wir stoßen dies durch eine moderierte Kontaktrunde an, in der sich jeder Teilnehmer kurz vorstellen (ca. 1 Minute) und anschließend intensiven Austausch mit den anderen Teilnehmern betreiben kann. Bringt bitte nach Möglichkeiten **Visitenkarten** mit, da diese uns das Netzwerken erleichtern. Zu Beginn der Veranstaltung gibt es üblicherweise einen Impulsvortrag. Solltest du Interesse haben, einen Impulsvortrag zu halten, so schreib uns sehr gerne. Weitere Informationen gibt es auch hier: [Impulsvorträge bei BNB](https://netzwerken.berlin/impulsvortraege/) \-\-\- Alle Gründer/StartUps, Freiberufler und Unternehmer/Unternehmensvertreter sind willkommen beim Business MeetUp im Café Amelie im Prenzlauer Berg. Die Teilnahme ist generell kostenlos und NICHT an eine Mitgliedschaft gebunden. Den leckeren Kaffee, Croissants, Kuchen oder was auch immer dich zum Kauf animiert hat, bezahle bitte im Café ;-) Bitte beachten: Unternehmer mit Multi Level Marketing-Geschäftsmodellen schließen wir von unseren Veranstaltungen komplett aus. Weiterhin stehen wir auch allen Arten des Provisionsgeschäfts (Finanz-Optimierer, Immobilienmakler, Versicherungsvertreteter, etc.) extrem kritisch gegenüber und gestatten diesen keine Teilnahme an unseren Events. Solltet ihr der Meinung sein, ihr fallt nicht in diese Kategorie, obwohl ihr in einer der genannten Branchen arbeitet, so sprecht uns bitte im Vorfeld an. Für alle anderen Fragen zum Event stehen wir euch selbstverständlich ebenfalls zur Verfügung. Wir freuen uns darauf, auch dich persönlich kennenzulernen und dir bei der Entwicklung deines Geschäfts zu helfen! P.S.: Es werden mitunter Bilder auf den Events gemacht. Falls du ein riesiges Problem damit hast, auf diesen Bildern zu sehen zu sein, gib uns vor Ort bitte Bescheid.

**Open Reflection Circle** is a small and intimate women’s gathering in Berlin, where we come together in a cozy café to share, reflect, and connect with one another. In this circle, a small group of around **8–10 women** gathers to spend time in meaningful conversation and reflection. We begin by introducing ourselves and gently creating a space where everyone feels comfortable and welcomed. Through guided reflection prompts, we explore our journeys, our emotions, and the experiences that shape our lives. These prompts are designed to help you open up and reflect more deeply on your thoughts, your dreams, and the challenges you may be navigating. We also include a few light and playful exercises to break the ice and help everyone feel relaxed and connected. The intention is not to create pressure to share, but to create an environment where sharing feels natural and safe. The heart behind the **Open Reflection Circle** is simple: to bring together women who can hold space for each other and remind one another that we are not alone in our journeys. This is a space where we can talk honestly about our lives — our visions, our goals, what we are building, and what sometimes holds us back from taking action. We reflect together on questions such as: Where do we want to go in life? What are we dreaming of creating? What challenges are we facing in our emotional wellbeing or personal growth? By listening to one another’s stories and perspectives, we often discover insights that we might not have seen on our own. You are encouraged to bring a **notebook and pen**, as many women like to take notes from reflections, ideas, and inspiration that arise during the conversation. Toward the end of the gathering, we close with a small and meaningful practice: exchanging short **love letters of gratitude** with each other. These simple messages help us acknowledge the presence of the women in the circle and leave the space with a feeling of appreciation, connection, and warmth. The intention of this circle is not advice or fixing each other’s problems. It is simply to **listen, reflect, learn from one another, and hold space for the beautiful complexity of each woman’s journey.**
