Secret Longings: When enough is no longer enough
Grab your shoes and join us to dip our toes into new waters of honest, uplifting conversations and a shared endeavor to dive a little deeper.
Living in Sweden offers a rare combination of high trust, strong welfare, and extensive individual freedom, supported by cultural norms of modesty, equality, and consensus.
Yet these same structures and norms that are here to support us have to a certain extent a shadow side, which expresses itself in rising loneliness, emotional reserve, and ambivalence about visibility and ambition.
Some people argue it stifles creativity, and open dialogue about personal growth, including themes around money, power, or trauma.
Do you sometimes feel unseen, even in a full life?
Take a walk with us in nature and share a unique space with people that are eager like yourself to find answers.
We will walk about 5 kilometer through “Flatens naturreservat”, starting south of Central Stockholm (about 25 minutes by public transport)
Join us for a 2-hour relational walk that turns a simple nature stroll into meaningful connections.

About your host
Hanno Rödger
Hanno knows the particular comfort of disappearing in a crowd— and how long it can feel like kindness. His world was one of effortless harmony, easy agreement, and a quiet self that rarely made demands — the living embodiment of lagom- and for a long time, genuinely mistaking this for peace. His personal development journey took him through the layers: past the merging, past the soothing of others, and into genuine connection with his own presence, desires, and voice. He brings that journey into the room not as a finished story, but as a embodied example — that going beyond lagom isn't about becoming louder or more demanding, it's about becoming real. His warmth, unhurried depth, and hard-won self-knowledge make him a guide others immediately feel safe with.
Come curious. This event is part of the English-speaking series “Beyond Lagom: The Secret Longings” - creating unique spaces for those seeking answers to a fulfilling life.
