Radical Honesty Weekend: Stockholm
October 24-26 in stockholm
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.
What to expect
Live out loud and be unapologetically you! 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.
This 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.
Workshop Agreements
(required for participation)
In this workshop, we will strive to create an environment and space where everyone feels safe to express their emotions, share their thoughts and experiment with each other. Therefore, we require all workshop participants and workshop leaders to agree to the below agreements.
On the first evening of the workshop, we will devote time to discussing each of the agreements and addressing any questions anyone has about them before we actually agree to them. If you have questions or concerns about any of this, please contact us at: info@HonestyEurope.com.

(You decide how much you want to share and we do invite you to explore going a bit outside your comfort zone in sharing.)
2. I agree to support others in telling their truth.
(Being willing to remain present and willing to hear others sharing.)

(An invitation for you to voice and ask for everything you want. We do not guarantee, though, that you will get everything you ask for.)

”I’ve been able to trust Tuulia and Pete in their experience and training and this has allowed me to express myself in a safe environment. And I respect the way Tuulia and Pete have challenged me each time. The workshops are not easy or comfortable. But that’s when my real shadows are seen and I can start to work with them. The workshops have been a playground for skills I was unable or not allowed to learn as a kid.”
