This weekly recap features a very unexpected change of scenery... read until the end to find out where!

🎭 Facilitation Fundamentals with the PWN Barcelona: Confirmed with Pinar for January! I’m looking forward to helping people explore how to hold space, encourage participation, and feel more confident guiding a group.

🎭 Coliving Hub Team Call: With Morgane preparing for her Coliving Season in December at Selgars Mill, Andreea preparing the Coloc Housing upcoming content creators retreat, and us finally updating Haz after our time at Coliving Conference, it was great to do a much needed check in.

🎭 When the Unexpected Occurs: During this open webinar this Sunday, I’ll share three case studies of things that went (very) wrong during my nearly 10 years as a facilitator, what I learned, and what I’d do differently now.

🎭 New tools, plenty of learning: After attending presentation from AI wizard Ibraheem M., I started integrating Notion and Canva into my Perplexity bot, wow!

If your team needs support with participation, collaboration, or more creative workshops, send me a message. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.

And finally, I’m writing this post with THIS view…

An unexpected trip to the Dominican Republic. What?! Still taking that in. More on this next week.
