We spend our entire lives in relationships that shape, form and change our lives on a daily basis. Rarely do we have the opportunity to take a closer look at how we actually live relationships and the challenges we often face.
We will get the chance to look at various puzzle pieces regarding our communication and conflict styles and patterns, that make us and our relationships so unique and likewise challenging.
Embrace this weekend as an opportunity to challenge your communication and conflict patterns and master your skills for living in sustainable and long lasting relationships.

Who is this event for?
LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.
Womên describes people who are identifying themselves as female in their gender identity. People that fit this category can be part of the LGBTQIA+ spectrum or not. We created this category specifically to indicate that we also invite cisgender, heterosexual womên.
The word is our own creation and serves as a replacement for the word “womxn” which is now being (ab)used for transmisogynist statements. The ^ in womên represents a marker (similar to the “x” in womxn) that wishes to give emphasis to the fact that womênhood is an intersectional umbrella term that holds many different people and experiences and is not biologically predetermined.
