Workshops As Activism
Pink Scroll

Pause for a moment and reconsider your true mission.

I see workshops as activism. Why?

We know that the *typical* ways people run workshops are actually supporting some less-than-ideal tendencies; perfectionism, centralization, surface engagement, and information overload.

Part 1  |  Part 2   |  Part 3 (You are here)  |  Part 4  |  Part 5

And does reinforcing those things make much sense for good-hearted people with a desire to change the world for the better?

Nope. Probably not. 

 

Some people do flawed things because they think it’ll help them reach their goals. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I’m personally not a fan of using the ends to justify the means.

In a minute, I’ll get into what I see as a more ideal approach to running workshops, but first let’s back up a bit and look at the big picture. 

Slow down for just a minute and think about your larger vision.

What are you trying to accomplish with your work?
What’s the purpose of you doing workshops?

 

Is it so that people will...

be impressed by you,

put more messages in the chat, and

have fleeting engagement?

Or is it so that people will...

feel empowered to act differently,

connect deeply with other humans, and

begin a journey of lasting transformation?

✨ 

My guess is what you *genuinely* want is for people to have their lives changed by your work.

You want them to remember the ideas and conversations they had, and you want those ideas and conversations to continue on, spreading into their local communities and online friend groups, rippling outward.

It’s about creating a shift away from the status quo.


✨It's about building a movement. ✨

Feel like a stretch? Think about it… at its core, what is activism, really?

Activist = Active + ist

It’s about people and taking action.

Usually that action is movement away from the status quo, or toward some ideal..

Activism then, is what an activist does.

(le duh, but stay with me)

Activism:
Attempting to create the conditions for (political or social) change to happen.

Those attempts can happen in myriad ways.

What comes to mind first for most people?

Things like…

🗨️Campaigning
✉️Letter writing
🧘Sit-ins and
💥Riots.


But what about…

🌷Creating a community garden?
💵Buying from local businesses?
🎨Making art?
✍🏽Telling stories?

Those things can make a difference too.

 

✨ 

Plus: hi, hello –
If giving a *speech* is activism…

Why wouldn’t it also be activism to invite someone into a *conversation*? 🤔

I hope you’re realizing:

"Oh shiiiet!
Workshops *can* be activism!"

So when we talk about the purpose of a workshop…. 

it’s not about finding a way to get people typing in the chat intermittently while your throat gets dry and scratchy from talking so much.

 

It’s about so much more.

 

In a well-designed workshop, you are creating the conditions for change to happen.

 

You’re bringing people together, sharing a new vision for how the world can be, creating a space with the tools/resources/healing/stories/support/conversations needed for the vision to become reality, and strengthening communities.

 

That is the true beauty (and purpose) of a workshop.

 

Workshop Facilitators = Activists

Next - Part 4/5:

I’ll introduce a framework for Enchanting Workshops you can use to build better workshops (in fewer iterations!) that are actually in line with your values.

  • Neurospicy. Dreamer. Designer. That’s me in three words—but I’m a lot more than that. I think it’s so important for us to see each other as whole, multi-dimensional humans.

  • Ready to make your workshops unforgettable? ✨ Meet The Prismatics—a dozen unique characters, each tied to a Worldbuilding Element, ready to help you level up your workshop. #PSA : Workshops *can* be more than just info dumps. They can be spaces for people to explore ideas, connect with others, and transform themselves. *If* the person hosting invites that to happen! Whether you’re looking to spark deeper engagement or challenge existing paradigms around what workshops "should" look like, these characters have got your back. I introduce them in depth inside my Worldbuilding course, but wanted to give you a peek. Even just seeing the characters and reflecting on how the Elements might apply to you should get some creative juices flowing. Swipe through and see who’s who—and let me know what sparks for you 🌟✨ #statusquo #ThePrismatics #WorldbuildingWorkshops #BeyondExpertise
  • The next phase of your workshop is here and it involves 'worldbuilding'. By now, I think we all realize that knowledge transfer alone is not enough to create meaningful, lasting change. We need to actually experience a new way, in order to *feel* the depths of what's possible. ✨✨If unwanted aspects of the current world were to fall apart, what do you hope would rise to replace them? ✨✨ Can you offer a lucid, appealing alternative to the 💩 status quo? A vision to work toward? Wouldn't it be more fun to focus on that?
  • Wanna make a collaborative poem? The topic is 'Workshops as Worldbuilding'. Drop a word or few in the comments. 👇🏽 I used to write a lot of poetry when I was younger. I've been thinking about starting up again lately. There's something so evocative, and potent about poetry that an essay just can't hold a candle to. And I've got so many things I want to express! But... despite all that thinking about poetry, I haven't been writing any. 😅 Sooo, I'm grateful for the interactive poetry event with @arspoetica.us hosted by @flownspace I came across this morning. I gave the prompt 'Workshops as Worldbuilding', and a bit of context. Then, this poem was custom-typed (on a typewriter!) by @lisaannmarkuson within a few minutes. She did maybe 10-12 in an hour, but nothing seemed rushed. Such a cool experience to be part of. Just another reminder from the universe that we don't 👏🏽 need 👏🏽 to 👏🏽 do 👏🏽 everything 👏🏽 ourselves. Collaboration will often get us there faster, and with more joy and lightness. And as I was writing this all out, it got me thinking... What if y'all gave me some words and all I had to do was rearrange and add to them? 👉🏽👈🏽 I bet I could write a poem then. 😬 If you're into it, share whatever random word(s) comes into your mind when you think of "workshops" or "worldbuilding" and I'll take it from there. Comments would be easier for me to manage (all in one place) but DMs are fine if you're more comfortable with that. Anyway - cheers to building the world we want, playfully, and in community! 🍵 💛
  • Constraints are funny things. 👈🏽 On one hand: Constraints (by definition) *limit* our options. 👉🏽 On the other hand: Constraints can *expand* our possibilities. If you're saying "Wait... what?" I can explain... When you're building 'The World of Your Workshop' and you choose constraints that remove the possibility of people doing what we *usually* do, we think: "Welp! Can't do that, huh? Hmmmn...🤔" And then we open up and consider new options. This leads to our brain getting more comfortable with multiple different ways of doing similar things. Then we're not just locked into our defaults. We have choice. 🌱 Growth. 💃🏽 Play. ✨ Transformation. 💡 Exploration. 💛 Change. I'm so here for all of this. What world will you invite people into? What version of themselves might they create? By using games or creative constraints within your work, you help people to reveal, strengthen, and stretch into different aspects of themselves.
  • Slides 5 and 6 would make for some excellent journalling, just sayin'. 😉 By worldbuilding you can share information, yes. You can also share your vision for the world and resources to make it happen. Most importantly? You let people experience a taste of a new reality. 😘 👌🏽 (We explore these things in-depth in my monthly workshop, 'Beyond Expertise'.) When we choose to use workshops as a way to worldbuild, we: ✨ Clarify our vision ✨ Show others that this *thing* is possible ✨ Remind yourself it’s possible ✨ Try ideas out in lower stakes environment ✨ Can more easily learn and iterate ✨ Take a (much needed) break from the world-that-is ✨ Use our creativity ✨ Build a community of people with similar missions ✨ Strengthen our resolve ✨ Nourish our spirit What would you add? 👇🏽 Dominant culture is made up of the realities we've experienced over and over again. Once things are normalized, they’re more likely to become not-so-temporary. These “temporary” workshop realities can add up. 🔥 What are your thoughts? Questions? Lemme know if you want me to expand on some of this in a part 2. #workshopsasworldbuilding
