Understanding the Lasting Impact of Early Life Experiences

All available sessions are fully booked. Please check back later for new time and dates, or stay updated through our newsletters.
  • Masterclass
  • Relationships & Identity
  • 45 min
  • English

Our early experiences shape how we see ourselves and the world around us. The patterns we develop as children – how we deal with emotions, connect with others, and respond to stress – often stay with us into adulthood. Sometimes these patterns help us; sometimes they hold us back.

In this masterclass, psychologist Jochem Bukman will guide you through understanding how your early life experiences continue to influence your thoughts, emotions, and behaviour today. You’ll learn how these patterns were once useful, and how you can start transforming them to support your well-being now.

This is not about blaming your past, but about understanding it, so you can create more freedom and choice in the present.

In this masterclass, you’ll learn:

  • How early experiences shape your current behaviour and emotional reactions
  • Ways to recognize recurring patterns that no longer serve you
  • Practical steps to begin changing these patterns with awareness and compassion

Confidence & Self-Esteem
Setting healthy boundaries | Part 1
Tue 07 Apr 09:00 - 10:15 UTC+1 (Amsterdam time)
Spots available · Group session

This is part 1 of our “healthy boundaries” series. A well-balanced physical and mental well-being requires boundaries. They provide security, increased self-esteem, realistic expectations, and much more.

The first step in setting boundaries is to be self-aware and know your needs. The next step is to communicate well with others so that these needs, as well as your own identity, are respected.

This group session allows you to learn more about yourself and your own limitations. It will help you to discover the challenges you may face when trying to understand and communicate your limits, so that you can find your balance.

For this session we ask you to switch your camera and microphone on, because it is interactive and needs your participation.
