Four days for leaders, practitioners, and people at a turning point — who are ready to think from a different place.
RE:WORLDING is four days in the Swiss Jura for people like you.
THE CONTEXT
Why now
You’re good at what you do. That’s not the problem.
The problem is that the signals you used to trust — the frameworks, the instincts, the read of a room — feel less reliable than they did. Not wrong, exactly. Just not quite enough.
Maybe you lead transformation and privately wonder if the next one needs a completely different approach. Maybe you help others navigate change and realise you haven’t had a real space for your own thinking in years. Maybe something is ending — a role, a chapter, a version of yourself — and the people you’d normally call don’t quite have what this moment needs.
These are not problems to solve in a day. They need a different kind of space.
That’s what RE:WORLDING is.
“I returned braver in small, real ways. My team noticed before I did.”

THE COMPASS POINTS
Four territories. You choose one.
At the heart of RE:WORLDING are four Deep Dive Labs — running in parallel each afternoon. You choose the one territory that calls you most, and you go deep. Your lab becomes your home base: a small group, intense work, real practice.
And each evening, all four labs come together for the Harvest — sharing the essence of what emerged. You commit to one path. You receive the fruit of all four.
LAB 01 | RE:GENERATE — Leading through the In-Between
Transition, transformation, working with what is taking shape
This lab is for you if…
You’re a leader or practitioner in the middle of a transition — where the old approach no longer fully applies, but the new one hasn’t taken clear shape yet. You’re still moving, still deciding. But the ground feels different underfoot.
This lab focuses on how to work in that in-between — when clarity is limited, but decisions and movement are still needed.
What shifts:
You become steadier in moments of transition — able to stay with uncertainty while recognising what is starting to take shape.
LAB 02 | RE:AUTHOR — Who Gets to Shape the Story?
Agency and authorship in times of change
This lab is for you if…
You’ve been operating inside systems, organisations, or roles that were largely shaped by others — and you’re starting to ask: what here is actually mine to influence? This question shows up for leaders who feel constrained, practitioners who work within institutions, and people at a turning point who are rewriting the terms of their own next chapter.
This lab focuses on recognising where you have agency — and how you use it to shape direction, meaning, and action.
What shifts:
You gain clarity about where you can genuinely influence — and become more intentional in how you step into that role.
LAB 03 | RE:LATE — Relational Intelligence
Strengthening our capacity to connect and collaborate across differences
This lab is for you if…
The hardest part of your work is not the decisions — it’s the relationships around them. You lead teams with conflicting perspectives, you facilitate rooms with real tension, or you’re navigating a personal turning point that’s also reshaping your closest working relationships. Staying connected when it’s difficult is a skill. This lab treats it as one.
This lab focuses on how to remain connected when it matters most — how to listen, speak, and stay engaged when perspectives differ.
What shifts:
You strengthen your ability to stay in relationship across difference — and work with it constructively rather than around it.
LAB 04 | RE:SENSE — The Body as Compass
Somatic intelligence, intuition, embodied decision-making
This lab is for you if…
You’ve noticed that your best decisions often came from something you couldn’t fully explain — and your worst ones from ignoring exactly that. Whether you’re a leader who needs to recalibrate after years of high-output work, a practitioner looking to deepen your embodied facilitation practice, or someone at a turning point trying to hear themselves more clearly: this lab works with what analysis alone can’t reach.
This lab focuses on noticing what is already present — in your body, your attention, and the situation — before responding.
What shifts:
You become more aware of what you are sensing — and more grounded in how you respond.
What stays
What you carry home from RE:WORLDING
These are not certificates or summaries. They are shifts — in how you read a room, make a decision, or hold a conversation that matters.
01
Decisions that feel yours again
You leave with a clearer sense of what you actually navigate by — not the frameworks you inherited, but the signals you trust. Body, instinct, pattern, voice. You'll notice the difference the first time you're in a room where everyone agrees and you don't and you stay with it.
02
Words for what you've been circling
The half-formed thoughts you've been carrying suddenly have language. Not jargon. Real words. The kind you can use in a board meeting, a team conversation, or a difficult call with a stakeholder. You stop struggling to explain what you sense and start being heard.
03
A room where the masks come off
50 people, carefully chosen. The rare experience of spending four days with peers who don't pretend to have it figured out and who think better because of it. These connections tend to last. Many of our alumni call this the most valuable professional network they have.
04
Steadiness, not answers
You don't return with a new plan. You return with a steadier hand. The ability to stay in uncertainty without freezing. To hold a difficult situation a little longer before reaching for the quick fix. Your team will notice before you do.

Morning: Arriving Together
We start each day as a whole group. Short inputs, shared reflection, a simple body practice. A gentle landing to connect with yourself, with others, and to arrive in the day's territory.
Midday: The Open Space (Co-Created)
This is where the format breathes. Pitch a topic that's been burning in you. Join someone else's. Walk the hills with a stranger who won't be a stranger by lunch. Sit in the sun and do nothing. Sometimes that's where the real thinking happens. The best ideas at our gatherings have come from this unscripted time. We protect it fiercely.
Afternoon: The Deep Dives (Curated)
You choose one of the four labs and go deep. Your lab becomes your home base for the gathering: a small group, selected hosts, intense and experiential work. Not theory. Practice that gets under your skin. You commit to one territory. The depth is the gift.
Evenings: The Harvest & The Fire
All four labs come together. Each group shares its essence with the others. Not as a report, but as a living harvest. Four expeditions, one fire. You chose one path, but you receive the fruit of all four. Then: shared meals, wine, conversations that continue long after the candles burn down. The best part of the day. Always.
THE CIRCLE
We don’t curate by job title. We curate by moment — and by the kind of honesty it takes to show up for one.
You might be a leader.
You’ve been navigating complexity for years. You know how to hold a room, make a call, keep things moving. But somewhere along the way, the internal compass has gotten harder to read. You’re looking for a place to think that isn’t a coaching session, a conference, or another leadership offsite.
You might be a practitioner.
You design change processes, facilitate transformation, coach executives through hard transitions. You’re skilled at holding space for others. You’re overdue for someone to hold it for you.
You might be at a turning point.
Something is shifting — a role, a direction, a sense of what matters. The usual advisors are helpful, but not quite for this. You need time to think with people who are genuinely in it, not people who will tell you what to do.
What these three have in common: they’re not here because it looks good. They’re here because something in them said now.
50 people. Four days. Once the circle closes, it stays closed.

THE PLACE
A place built for threshold moments
Impulszentrum Holdenweid sits in the rolling hills of the Swiss Jura, near Basel. Originally built as a shelter for people whose reality didn't fit the conventions of their time, it has since become a place for rethinking those very conventions.
"The permission to be disoriented is already in the walls."
Fully residential
You sleep, eat, and work in the same place. This is not incidental, it's what makes the depth possible.
Honest, local food
Full board throughout. Shared at long tables. Meals here are not logistics, they're where the other half of the thinking happens.
The Jura hills
Walking trails, open air, space to think outside the room. Nature is part of the rhythm.
Near Basel
Easy to reach from across Europe with enough distance from everyday life to actually arrive.
TICKETS & ACCOMODATION
Four days that stay with you
Four days. Full board. One lab that changes how you lead. And a circle of 50 people you'll want to call again.
These prices include the full programme, all materials, and complete full board for the entire gathering. Accommodation is separate so you can choose what fits.
DATES & TIMING June 24–27, 2026
We open the circle on Wednesday, June 24 at 15:00. (with registration and welcome starting at 14:00).
We close the circle on Saturday, June 27 at 13:00, followed by a farewell lunch together — you’re warmly invited to stay.

YOUR STAY
We have separated the sleeping costs from the program fee to give you full flexibility. Whether you prefer a quiet ensuite room or the closeness to nature in a tent.
Please indicate your preferred category when you apply. Room capacities at Holdenweid are limited. We allocate them on a first-come, first-served basis.
How we handle the details We want your journey to be seamless from the moment you apply.
Room Allocation: We manage the bookings to ensure the right constellation. We will do our best to secure your preferred category (allocated on a first-come, first-served basis). If you opt for a shared room, we will carefully match you with a roommate who fits the vibe.
Simple Billing: Once your application is accepted and your seat is confirmed, we will send you a single invoice covering both your program contribution and your accommodation. One transfer, and you are all set.
ACCESS & SOLIDARITY
We are curating a diverse group, and we know that value isn't always reflected in available budget. We don’t want money to be the reason the right person isn’t in the room.
If your financial reality currently stands in the way of your participation, please reach out to us (info@beyondstorytelling.com) for a confidential conversation. We have set aside a small budget for solidarity-based support and individual payment plans.
JOIN THE CIRCLE
This is not an open call.
We are building a circle of 50 people who are genuinely at this moment. Not because it looks good on a calendar. Because something in them says: now.
We don't need a CV or a motivation letter. Just a few honest lines about where you are right now.
1
Send us a signal
A few lines about what brought you here. What are you navigating right now? Don't overthink it. Gut feeling is enough.
2
We respond personally
A real reply from the team. No automated responses. We'll confirm your seat or let you know if the timing isn't right.
The Lineage
BEYOND STORYTELLING
A decade of building rooms that matter.
Beyond Storytelling isn’t about communication skills or how to tell a better story at work. It’s about something older and harder to name: how the stories we live inside — about ourselves, our roles, our organisations — shape what we can see, decide, and become. For nine years, we’ve been building spaces where that kind of thinking is possible. RE:WORLDING is the next one.
