”Therapies, coaching and the culture of self-help have become widespread in many societies in recent decades and have an immense impact on our cultural and emotional lives. As much as some related developments are positive, such as the increasing destigmatization of mental illness, a huge market of therapy and counseling services has developed at the same time. In every aspect of life, you can now work on yourself through appropriate offerings, thereby being your best self or truly tapping into your full potential. Which in turn means that everyone is also responsible for doing so and must live with the consequences of doing without it.”

In the lecture performance YES! YES! YES!, Corinne Maier and Ntando Cele investigate the effects of this highest self industry on your relationship to yourself and others. They take their cue from famous coaches and their statements, and it could well be that some viewers go through unexpected, unplanned moments of transformation.
