THE CALL

How to develop your life so you feel alive with purpose and meaning? How can you make a difference that matters? How to have impact? And most likely, how are you already having an impact? This world needs more changemakers; people who are part of the solution of the big issues in our world and time. To answer these questions we’ll look closer at aspects no other training, certainly no school, seems to address.

THE NEED

Now is the time to become a director of your own life and make things better for you and the world around you. In this series we look at essential tools to answer questions like: How to be a rebel, innovator, artist, changemaker, no matter what your position is in society? How to transform your life or job into something more fulfilling? How to make change happen? How to start a movement?

We’ll look at the messiness of change. The importance of feeling alive and human. The importance of mystery and magic in life. How play is an educational revolution in itself. And, quite essential, finding your own answers within yourself.

FOR WHO

These evenings are for everyone who resonates with this call! And for everyone caught in the wrong job, not having the time to do Knowmads full time, too old/young to do Knowmads, seeking more like minded spirits, wanting to make a difference, wanting to come alive, seeking purpose.
