What we’re about
I have finally decided to start my own meetup group at the suggestion of several meetup friends. Thanks, guys!
The group will focus on personal development/self-awareness/personal empowerment etc with a spiritual leaning.
My name is Patricia but I mostly answer to Trish! I have a background of over 35 years in education and personal development and am a qualified teacher and counsellor. I have written a range of courses and workshops ranging from topics such as Stress Management, Communication Skills, Creating Change to Life Coaching and Developing Your Intuition. I like to help people to improve their lives and love motivating and inspiring people.

This group will be informal and relaxed with a view to gaining more self-awareness whilst having fun and enjoying each others company. People who should join will include those on a journey of self-discovery, those who are looking to get more satisfaction from life and those who wish to re-assess their lives in the company of like-minded others.
I will offer a range of sessions ranging from 2 hours to half-days, full day workshops and possibly full weekends. Each session will have a detailed introduction so you can decide if it's for you or not.
We will also have a number of social events so that members can get to know each other better and share in each other's journeys.
Membership of Journeys of Self-Discovery will be limited to 'active' members who follow the below simple rules (as of January 7 2013):
Members need to attend a meetup within 6 months of joining to become 'active.'
Members need to attend at least 2 meetups a year.
Members need to log on to the site within any 3 month period.
Members need to have a completed profile and a photograph so we can each recognise each other.
Members can also make arrangements for an individual session with me. Please feel welcome to send me an email through the 'Contact Organiser' link for more info.
I hope you have enjoyed reading a little about Journeys of Self-Discovery and I look forward to the pleasure of your company at a meetup/individual session sometime.
If you have any queries, please email me direct.
Wishing you all the best on your journey of self-discovery!
With love and laughter
Trish

I hope you can join me to dive deeper into your evolving Journey of Self-Discovery. - New Event!! Monthly Book Club!! April - The Universe Has Your Back!Cordelia Sourdough Bakehouse, South Brisbane
I am excited to invite you to our Journeys of Self-Discovery inaugural Monthly Book Club event! This is a FREE event. Limited to 10 people.
- This event will be held regularly on the middle Saturday of the month after my regular Classic Nia class. Feel free to join in that event also if you like. Register here. www.meetup.com/nia-with-trish/
- Look for my sign on the table.
- Order yourself a drink & maybe a bite to eat & take a seat.
- Each month, we will read or listen (or just scan through) a book that I have chosen relating to our theme of Self-Discovery.
- Our April book will be 'The Universe Has Your Back' by Gabby Bernstein. (She is coming to Brisbane on 12 May & offering a Manifesting Masterclass) A New York best-selling book on transforming fear into faith in order to live a divinely guided life with confidence.
- Each story and lesson in the book guides readers to release the blocks to what they most long for: happiness, security and clear direction. The lessons help readers relinquish the need to control so they can relax into a sense of certainty and freedom. Readers will learn to stop chasing life and truly live.
Making the shift from fear to faith will give readers a sense of power in a world that all too often makes them feel utterly powerless. When the tragedies of the world seem overwhelming, this book will help guide them back to their true power.
Gabrielle says, “My commitment with this book is to wake up as many people as possible to their connection to faith and joy. In that connection, we can be guided to our true purpose: to be love and spread love. These words can no longer be cute buzz phrases that we merely post on social media. Rather, these words must be our mission. The happiness, safety, and security we long for lies in our commitment to love.”
When readers follow this path, they’ll begin to feel a swell of energy move through them. They will find strength when they are down, synchronicity and support when they’re lost, safety in the face of uncertainty, and joy when they are otherwise in pain. Follow the secrets revealed in this book to unleash the presence of your power and know always that The Universe Has Your Back.
- Looking forward to enjoying some stimulating, educational & inspiring time with you all!

- Our January read & chat will be one we all know well. - Eat, Pray, Love! I watched it again last night on Netflix & reflected on how much I have grown since it first came out! It certainly bodes lots of food for thought into our own lives, if we choose!
- What's your 'Eat, Pray, Love' for 2025?! Certainly food for thought - no pun intended!!
- Our discussion will follow a schedule that I will outline at the beginning of the event.
Looking forward to enjoying some stimulating, educational & inspiring time with you all!
