Life moves fast. There’s always something to do, something to improve, something to achieve. For many of us, especially in this high-speed world, the to-do list never ends — and neither does the pressure. Even when things are going well, it can feel like it’s never quite enough.
In this session, we pause.
We ask: What if you stopped chasing for a moment — and looked at what’s already here?
Together, we’ll explore:
- Why it’s so hard to feel satisfied in a world that always demands more? How to spot the invisible pressures shaping your daily life?
- What “enough” could look like for you — not according to society, but on your terms.
- Practical tools to set boundaries, silence the inner critic, and celebrate what’s already working
On this night:
✔️ You will write a personal reflection a.k.a an "enough manifesto"
✔️ We’ draw inspiration from Ernst-Jan Pfauth and monk David Steindl-Rast
✔️ Practice turning gratitude into a mindset, not just a moment
✔️ Gain new insights by sharing experiences with others
What can you expect?
Flourishing classes are inspiring workshops in which we discuss themes that go beyond the everyday practice. For example: life, love, relationships, friendship, career, and identity. With disruptive exercises and in an experimental setting, we encourage you to think and take action. Not only do we give you the theoretical knowledge, but we also put it into practice right away and get to work actively to leave you with new insights and concrete next steps.
For who?
The activities of De Kwekerij are intended for all students and young professionals who want to flourish between the ages of 18-35, of all backgrounds, gender identities and sexual preferences. We work in small groups with a maximum of 20 participants. Are you looking for new insights and do you like to learn from each other? Join us!
