Online Training · 4 Sessions · Starting June 6
What if you could actually
meet the other gender?
Not perform. Not manage distance. But actually meet honestly, without the scripts. Training Unmasked is a 4-session online space where men and women explore gender, connection, and what gets in the way.
Something between men and women
feels off right now.
In my workshops, I sit with men and women every week. Men who feel they can't do anything right anymore. Women who are exhausted from explaining themselves. Both sides trying to date while quietly wondering: why does this feel so hard?
The Manosphere, rising femicide, the pick-up scene these aren't just headlines. They're symptoms of something underneath: a growing distance between men and women that most of us feel, but few know how to talk about without it getting worse. Maybe you recognize this too.
After this training,
something will shift.
Participants leave with a clearer sense of who they actually are versus who they've been performing, and why. They've sat across from the other gender and actually talked. Not debated. Something in that changes how they show up next time.
They've sat across from someone of the other gender and actually talked. Not debated. Not performed. Talked about what it's like to be them. And something in that changes how they show up next time.
Real connection between men and women is possible. It just needs a different kind of space.
This training is for you if...
You sense that something in how men and women relate isn't working, and you want to be part of changing it, starting with yourself.
You're in a relationship and want deeper, more conscious contact with your partner, beyond the roles you've both slipped into.
You're single and tired of dating feeling like performance, you want more clarity about what you actually want and how you actually show up.
You're curious about your own conditioning, the unconscious ideas, projections, and expectations you carry toward the other gender.
Everything you need to go deep.
Four sessions.
One authentic journey.
Each session builds on the last, from your own inner landscape outward to real encounter with the other.
Hi, I'm Silja.
I'm a certified Embodiment Coach (since 2022) and Authentic Relating facilitator. Since 2022 I've run over 100 workshops across six countries, working with multicultural groups and a wide range of perspectives, backgrounds, and worldviews.
I've been creating spaces where people take off the mask for years, through the Unmasked workshops, the Connect workshop, and my newsletter about real connection.
This training came from a question I couldn't stop sitting with: why does something feel so broken between men and women right now, and what would it look like to actually address that, together, in a room?
I use Authentic Relating practices because they cut through performance and get to something real. I'm a trained facilitator, and I'm also someone who finds this hard, which is exactly why I'm doing this.
This is an experimental space. I'll be honest about what I know and what I'm still learning.
Real words from real people.
"Seeing how insecurity works in other people, exposed thanks to the atmosphere Silja created, allowed me to see my own dynamic. How I sabotage good things by believing in my insecurities. This was the biggest takeaway for me."
"I came with curiosity and no idea what to expect. The event genuinely shifted something in me. Authentic feedback from participants of the other gender helped me question negative beliefs about myself. I didn't expect so much to happen in under 2 hours."
"Fabulous event for anyone looking to get beyond small talk and actually connect on a very human level. Silja creates a safe environment and keeps the flow going. This is not a lecture, it's hands-on and participatory. Highly recommended."
"Her professionalism, experience and sensitivity as a facilitator were only matched by her humour. She expertly navigated a huge group of strangers while staying fully at ease in her own authenticity."

Frequently Asked Questions
-
No. I deliberately don't position this as a dating event. I'm not a relationship coach or sex coach. I'm an embodiment coach and Authentic Relating facilitator. My passion is creating spaces for connection.
-
No. I've been to tantric dating events myself and found them... cringy. That's not the vibe here. This is about authentic connection and having fun while doing it, not performative spirituality.
-
No nudity—, that's explicitly not allowed.
My facilitation style is based on connection through conversation and presence. If physical closeness is mutually desired by two people, that's welcome, but most exercises are non-physical. -
I offer a low-key matchmaking service where I can connect two interested people after the event for a small fee. But there's no pressure, you can also just exchange contact info on your own.
-
Yes. As a straight woman myself, I find it easier to create spaces for people with similar experiences. I believe LGBTQ+ spaces should be held and facilitated by LGBTQ+ people, there's simply more understanding and empathy that way.
-
Everyone is welcome who identifies as a man or woman and is heterosexual. Whether you're cisgender or transgender doesn't matter, what matters is how you identify now.
-
As vulnerable, honest, and authentic as you want to be. There's no expectation from me about who you should be. You're here for yourself, not for anyone else.
-
Honestly?
I want to understand what you're struggling with, what makes dating feel impossible, what you wish someone would finally address, what keeps you up at night when you think about connection.
Your registration answers help me gather that information. Your experience in the workshop shows me what actually works. And yes, your email goes on my list (which you can leave anytime).
The unromantic truth: I'm collecting data so I can build something bigger—something that actually helps people navigate the frustration and loneliness of modern dating.
But I can't do that without understanding you first. So: free workshop, honest feedback, and hopefully you get something valuable in return.
-
Yes. Many participants are travelers tired of swiping through tourists and want genuine connections whilst on the move. This workshop gives you practice in connecting authentically—skills that travel with you.
