LSP Conference and Advanced Trainings curated by intHRface Following on from my previous article where I recorded and publicly shared a video testimonial of me looking forward to attending the Annual LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Conference in Billund, here I am again with another video. 😊 These videos are like buses - you wait around for ages for one to turn up and then two turn up at the same time. Anyway, hopefully, maybe, this will be the last one for a while. 😄 #LSPConf2024 and the Advanced Trainings are held next week from Monday 30th September to Saturday 5th October 2024. If you are a facilitator of the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method and materials, you may want to consider it too. The details can he found here: lego-serious-play-conference-advanced-training Video Transcript: Hi! Me again! The LSP conference is sandwiched between three days of advanced trainings that can help you deepen your facilitation skills and take your LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® expertise to the next level.

LSP Conference and Advanced Trainings curated by intHRface I wear many professional hats and sometimes this means there is nothing to share publicly and sometimes this provides me the opportunity to post an article twice in a week! This week is one of those weeks! Another thing is that it takes me a great deal to record and publicly share a video of me and yet here I am doing exactly that and for good reason too. It is for the Annual LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Conference at LEGOLAND Hotel and Conference Centre in Billund, Denmark in October 2024 which I am very much looking forward to attending. If you are a facilitator of the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method and materials, you may want to consider it too.

However my second happy place has got to be attending The Annual LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Conference at

“mastering the sacred art of ceremony and ritual" - Rhonda Spence A different kind of article this time but that is how I roll! This past weekend was wonderfully amazing and a long time coming. I participated in the Embodied Cacao Ceremonial Training created and facilitated by Rhonda Spence at her beautiful retreat space in Angus, and my body, mind and spirit is still overflowing from the experience. Cacao is the raw material from which chocolate is made. It comes from the cacao tree, which is native to Central and South America. The cacao pods, which grow on the tree, contain cacao beans and pulp. These beans are roasted, fermented, and ground to create cocoa powder or cocoa mass, which are the primary ingredients in chocolate. Cacao is rich in flavonoids, which are antioxidants that have been linked to various health benefits, including improved heart health and cognitive function. The training kicked off with a powerful cacao ceremony on Friday night surrounded by an in

The Zephyr and The Labyrinth" - Powered by Dall-E 3. I’ve always been a fan of experimenting with new tools and technologies, so when I heard about the capabilities of AI language models, I was intrigued. I decided to give it a try and see if it could be a useful tool in my writing process. The results were fascinating. I started with a simple prompt: "Give me five random nouns." The AI obliged and gave me: Zephyr , Labyrinth , Equinox , Serendipity , and Nebula . From there, I asked the AI to create a story using those nouns, translate it into different languages, and even write it in a specific style. Here are the AI prompts I used: Give me five random nouns Create me a story with only 500 words using these nouns Make it more British Translate it into French Now translate into Spanish Back into English Expand to 500 words AI gave me a story with 538 words and so I looked at all the iterations that the process gave me after eac

“A Field of Dreams" by Karen Grayburn. The weekend just gone was absolutely incredible. What a fantastic and fabulous time. A gathering of friends of thirty-odd years in a field in Aberdeenshire for three days - and prepping the festival area for five days before that. It was a delight! I want to blog about it, but it seems just too sacred an experience to share openly. Blogging and content-writing is often seen as a platform for open and honest expression. A space where we share our thoughts, experiences, and passions with the world. But what happens when you have something burning to say, something that feels important and genuine, yet it's simply not appropriate to share publicly? It's a frustrating dilemma. You grapple with the urge to connect with your audience on a deeper level, to be truly authentic. But there's a line, a boundary that must be respected. Perhaps it's a personal matter that could hurt others, or something that might be misinterpreted an
