Walk & Workshop: Ecocycle planning - natural flow, creative destruction and timing in your projects
Ecocycle mapping - natural flow, creative destruction and timing in your projects
Theme: Flow, natural timing & truth in your projects. Projects as living systems.
Question: Where is this project in its life cycle? And where is this project in my life? Where do I feel trapped? Where does it flow?
Who is this for? Leaders, high-autonomy, self-directed professionals, team leaders and community builders. If you set your own goals, live by your own rules, navigate your own weeks and work flows (whether as independent or as part of a company)
Focus:
Growth, maturity, creative destruction, renewal
Letting go of what no longer serves
Naming stuckness, scarcity or overextension and rigidity
Outcome:
You will understand what actions are appropriate now—and which are premature or outdated.
What we will do:
♾️ Ecocycle mapping helps you view your life as a living system moving several times through cycles of birth, maturity, creative destruction, and renewal. 🌳
We start the day outside, with a walk in the forest that will bring you closer to yourself and to nature through reflection and a guided exercise.
After the walk we return to the city, share a lunch together and dive into the actual ecocycle mapping. The tool helps reveal where energy is flowing or stuck, guiding decisions about what to sustain, release, or regenerate. By aligning with these natural patterns, you tap into your own natural forces of resilience, adaptability, and continuous renewal.
Huge papers, colours and pens are provided for a creative, insightful afternoon. You will leave understanding the cyclical aspect of projects and workflows, what actions are appropriate in every stage and which are premature or totally … outdated.
📝 Bring a small notebook and a pen in case you want to write down some insights.
🥾 Wear waterproof hiking shoes - the forest can be muddy. And bring some rain gear.
📍 We meet at the metro station Hermann Debroux at 13:00. Take metro 5 at Central Station = 20min ride.
⏰ Our walk will take 2,5 - 3 hours. We make a loop back to the metro.

Who is this for?
Coordinators, team leaders, freelancers, entrepreneurs, high-autonomy, self-directed professionals and community builders:
You define your own priorities, responsibilities, workflows and success metrics - or you have high-autonomy within an organisation to do this.
You look for balancing execution and reflection in your work and your days.
You operate without a formal, fixed playbook, but from a more intuitive, self-aligned space. There is no one solution for you, yet you would like a clear direction.
You are curious about how reconnecting to nature can inspire you to work in a more (re)generative, aligned way.
About these workshops
Workshops by the Weaving Wolves will help you create deeper clarity and direction in your work by reconnecting with nature, with yourself, the others and the systems you are part of.
More specifically, you will:
Step out of reactive doing
See your projects as living systems
Align your purpose, your energy, and action
Set goals that feel grounded, sustainable, aligned
Feel less alone in your leadership
This is not productivity training. It's ecological sense-making for self-directed leaders.
