We-Flow tasters; AR Intentional Communities; ARC Program

October 20, 2025 By marc Leave a Comment

Every once in a while, especially when there are noteworthy events, you will get a special newsletter. This is one of them.

Note that since the November-December Circling Guide newsletter will be semi-automated, there is a deadline of the 25th of the month for inclusion of your events.


Two We-Flow Tasters

We-Flow is the most exciting addition to the AR world I have seen in a long-time. There are two free “taster” events, one on Wed. 22 Oct 18:00 CET / Noon EDT, and another on Wed. 29 Oct 18:00 CET / Noon EDT.

The reason I am so into this is that We-Flow takes AR practices out of the exclusive domain of personal development, and into the realm of purpose-driven projects. And it works! My life was transformed by an immersion, you can read about it here.

Check out the upcoming 8-9 November  We-Flow Immersion, suitable for both EU and US times zones.

Are you interested in AR-sourced Intentional Communities?

If so, great news! Sara & Geof just closed on the land for their new community in Marshall NC! 6 lots are available.

And I am part of a group of 5 actively looking to create an IC. Read more at The Dream Is Alive: Is an Authentic Relating Intentional Community Even Possible, and ping me if you want to get involved. 

Sophie and I start the 5th cohort of Authentic Relating in Community on Tuesday Oct. 29

We are starting the 5th cohort of Authentic Relating in Community (ARC) on Tuesday Oct. 28, with a free workshop tomorrow, Tuesday Oct. 21 in both EU and US time zones.

The ARC was originally designed for active community-builders, but has evolved into a crash-course on AR for anyone. We have a unique approach combining AR fundamentals training with Circling in small breakouts. With us to 12 participants (and usually less), we go deep every time. If you are interested in running an AR private circle (which IMHO is the best way to start), come to the free workshop to find out more and support us.
