Theme Evening - What Do You Mean by That?

This theme evening is for you if you know what it feels like to be drained of energy, have relationships that take up too much space, or want to better understand and manage your patterns. Through talks, small exercises, and dialogue, you'll gain practical mental tools to stop overthinking, let go of people-pleasing, and find more peace in yourself and your relationships.

The knowledge and methods draw from metacognitive therapy, positive psychology, the 3 Principles, and coaching - all based on recent psychological research.

Speaker, consultant, and coach Gitte Hedegaard shares her professional expertise and personal experience. She has lived with a schizophrenic mother, alcohol in the home, sexual abuse, and an eating disorder, and as an adult has experienced multiple bouts of depression and anxiety, and received diagnoses of ADHD and bipolar disorder. As Gitte says: "I spent most of my life trying to 'fit in'. I was the people-pleaser who tried to make everyone else happy and trampled on myself again and again and again. Only when I focused on and worked with my relationships did I find my way home to myself."

Former participants say, among other things: "I learned so much more about why I react the way I do" (Lise, 42), "I used the tools already when I got home" (Jan, 53), and "Many things became clear to me today" (Laura, 24).
