What is the story you tell yourself?
And is it still true?
This question kicked off our first Creators Eve formerly known as Solo Salon and it continues to resonate today.
On April 2, 2025, we welcomed Larissa Hellmund as our guest mentor. As a communications strategist, storytelling coach, and digital nomad, she has been traveling the world for some time now with nothing but hand luggage and the openness to constantly rediscover herself and re-writing her own stories in a changing landscape.
“Even if I sort through everything, true lightness only comes when I also examine my inner stories.”
In a wonderfully honest and touching session, Larissa spoke about narratives, beliefs, and the power of changing perspectives through storytelling. About stories that hold us back and those that want to be written. And about how we can learn to lovingly question our inner voice.
A reflecting moment was her story “The farmer and his son” a short story with impact that invited the power of being non-judgemental and letting go of beliefs that don’t really help our own art as the storytellers of our very own life.
What if you simply didn’t judge whether something was good or bad?
What if you gave the story space to unfold?
The Creators Eve became a space for openness, inner realignment, and creative exchange. People from a wide variety of industries and walks of life shared thoughts, experiences, and new perspectives.
Storytelling is not a buzzword. It is what connects us as human beings.
It is the way we create meaning in conversations, in self-perception, in our relationships, in our work.
And sometimes it is a real blessing to discover your own narrative through the eyes of someone else and see, that it makes much more sense, than what it sometimes feels like.
Thank You Larissa for your energy, guidance and presence here in Berlin. We are looking forward to the next stories you will share with the world.
