Is it possible that the “you” you’ve spent a lifetime defending… doesn’t actually exist?

What if most of your mental chatter - your worries, goals, doubts, and even your self-improvement efforts were all in service of a psychological illusion?

Join changework expert Jørgen Rasmussen for this free live session as he introduces a radical but increasingly explored idea:

There is no such thing as a fixed, stable self.

Jørgen will share real examples from decades of client work, including a case where a man's lifelong shame turned out to belong to someone who'd never actually existed, and how a moment of total inner silence permanently changed one woman's relationship to her own thinking. You'll also be invited to engage in a thought experiment exploring how many different “versions of you” exist only in other people's minds, and why none of them are actually you.

In this mind-opening session, you’ll explore:

✅ Why the idea of “the self” might be one of the most widespread and limiting assumptions of our culture
✅ The surprising psychological and ethical implications of this illusion
✅ How this topic relates to personal freedom, suffering, and the way we relate to others
✅ Why an embodied realisation (not just an intellectual understanding) of this illusion can be a profound turning point.

Whether you’re a coach, therapist, someone into personal development, or simply someone curious about what lies beneath the surface of identity, this free session offers a powerful invitation to look more deeply.

This event will also introduce the themes behind Jørgen’s upcoming 9-part experiential masterclass, but you don’t need to be planning to attend that to benefit from this evening.

Come with an open mind, leave with a fresh perspective.
