A Cohort-Based Training to Beat Zoom Fatigue
by creating MAGICAL Human Moments online.
Is it possible to recreate the magic of genuine human moments online?
You’re a facilitator, trainer or course creator who loves to host group experiences that create deep connections and transformations, but you’re struggling to keep participants engaged online.
They are “zoomed out” and are unlikely to commit to another boring lecture or webinar.
The way we run online workshops, trainings and events are changing rapidly. What worked at the beginning of 2020 doesn’t work anymore today.
You know you need to learn how to REALLY ENGAGE groups online, but …
- … when you ask a question, you get crickets and you struggle getting your participants to actively engage in activities.
- … you struggle to get your attendees to turn on their cameras and feel like you’re just talking to blank screens.
- … you are feeling like you’re driving with a blindfold because you can’t “read the room”, read non-verbal cues and get immediate feedback on how your activities are landing.
- … you get a “tech headache” thinking about all the multi-tasking you have to do (sharing your screen, responding to answers in the chat, creating breakout rooms, playing music, etc… All without losing your focus on looking at the camera and facilitating your content.)
- … you rarely get raving testimonials, reviews and referrals.
- … you have a hard time convincing your customers and clients to even show up to your virtual events and are worried about your business.
It doesn’t have to be this way!

In this interactive VIRTUAL FACILITATOR TRAINING, I will show you how to engage 5-100 participants with the most memorable, engaging and transformational group experiences, so that you can confidently work with teams, groups and communities around the world.

ABOUT YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Hey, I'm Jan 👋
If you’ve felt overwhelmed, anxious and not sure how to navigate this “new virtual world”… I get it.
If you’re anything like me, then you know deep down, this is the work you were meant to do. You just need to figure out how to adapt.
For over 10 years, I have been designing and hosting experiences that build trust, empower people to share vulnerable stories and turn strangers into friends. My ASK DEEP QUESTIONS “Connection Cards” have helped turn over 80,000 shallow conversations into deep connections around the globe.
I used to believe that technology was one of the biggest barriers to creating human connection, but then 2020 happened… and I needed to adapt.
I started to experiment and tried everything from eye gazing exercises to running team building sessions, solving escape rooms and even attempting the world’s largest virtual group hug which has led to so many lessons, insights and even a completely new global audience and clients.
Don’t regret taking this unique opportunity to upgrade your facilitation skills now.
I’m here to show you that what you thought was impossible is actually possible. I can show you how to leverage technology to create highly engaging and unique online experiences that help groups connect, collaborate and co-create.
Online events and virtual workshops are not going to go away, and that’s a great thing!
They have provided so many opportunities. So let’s future-proof your business and continue to create transformations for your communities and build a new sustainable income stream with online workshops and events.

OBJECTIVES + BENEFITS
Imagine if you could...
- Make your online workshops and meetings even more engaging than in person by using some of my tried-and-tested activities.
- Make even your largest events feel small and intimate so that participants walk away feeling transformed, inspired, and part of a community.
- Create fresh experiences that are new and unique, so you stand out from your competition that is still running boring webinars.
- Fill your online events and workshops easily and effortlessly, all because of the raving testimonials (and referrals!) you receive.
- Spend more time with your family, friends and the things that matter to you because you can work location independently.
I would love to help you get there!
Together we’ll take you from feeling overwhelmed about technology to running highly memorable and impactful online experiences.
CURRICULUM
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

PREMIUM BONUS: ROLEPLAY INTENSIVE
For participants who enroll in the PREMIUM EXPERIENCE, we will meet for a Bonus Session. In this interactive session we will roleplay some of the most difficult scenarios as a facilitator:
- What if all cameras are off?
- What if one person doesn’t stop talking?
- What if someone disrupts your session?
- And more… (we will crowdsource them together)
This is the ultimate practice session to help you apply the frameworks and strategies from the training, so if you’re looking for something more hands on, with expert feedback, make sure to claim one of the limited PREMIUM spots.
ASSIGNMENTS
HANDS-ON PRACTICE
The most amazing virtual facilitators run online experiences like they’re driving a car.
They create breakout rooms, launching polls, run activities in the gallery view without thinking too much about it. It has become a habit, completely second nature, and they can simply focus on delivering their content and being present with their participants.
But when starting out, during their first “ride”, everything was overwhelming: signalling on time, checking the mirror, releasing the brake, slowly pressing down the accelerator…
It’s the same with facilitating on Zoom, MS Teams, Butter and more…
How you become a great virtual facilitator is the same as becoming a great driver:
It takes practice, practice, practice.
And that is exactly why each week students are expected to complete an assignment that gradually builds up to designing their own short virtual mini workshop.
This is an opportunity to apply the frameworks and lessons from the training and deepen your learning.
Throughout the sessions you’ll have lots of opportunities to get feedback and support, so you feel confident to apply the theory you have learned.

CHECKING IN
Is this for you? Let's find out
Right now, you might be thinking: “This sounds great, but I still don’t believe that it’s even possible to replicate my workshops and experiences without participants being able to touch or be in the same room!”
I get it. I used to assume the same thing. But what I learned is that when you attempt to exactly recreate your in-person events, then you’re already losing.
Instead, it’s about reimagining what is possible that was not possible before.
Here is who I designed this training for:
The Virtual Facilitator Training is for anyone who creates participatory learning experiences for groups.
You understand the value of facilitating human connections and want to find a way to recreate the MAGIC of your in-person events online.
Facilitators & Trainers
Coaches & Consultants
Cohort-Based
Course Creators
Event & Experience Designers
You don’t wanna miss this if:
- You want to move away from lectures and slideshows where participants are passive consumers and instead, get participants actively engaged in your content.
- You are translating an in-person workshop, course or program into an online experience and don’t know how to make it have the same impact.
- You are running a cohort-based course and want to make sure to build a student community.
- Your work depends on facilitating human connection and you find it harder or impossible to do this online.
- You want to increase your confidence as a virtual facilitator leading groups of 5-100 participants on Zoom.
- You want to tap into a new global audience of clients and customers by facilitating remote workshops and experiences.
I am committed to building a diverse community
I am working on making this training more accessible, inviting and inclusive for participants from all backgrounds. It’s important to me that this training is available to anyone who wants to learn, no matter their financial situation.
And this means, that I’m offering a limited number of pay-what-you-can spots.
Preference will be given to anyone in the black, indigenous, people of colour, LGBTQ2S+ and Trans communities, so if you identify as belonging to one of these communities, I highly encourage you to apply.

Do you also offer a custom training for companies and organizations?
I’ve been offering custom workshops for managers, facilitators and presenters at different companies and organizations and can create something that will address your needs.
