Do you feel like your relationship has become more routine than rewarding? Or maybe you keep attracting the same type of person and ending up in the same place? 💛 It might not be the relationship that needs fixing first. It might be what is running underneath it. In this free one hour session, Aurore Prefumo and Nutritional Therapist Adriana DeVere are joining forces to show you the connection most people completely miss. The link between what you eat, how you feel, and the patterns you keep repeating in love and life. 🌸 You will walk away understanding why you over-function, why certain arguments never get resolved, and how your energy, mood, and nervous system are directly shaping your relationships every single day. This is not a lecture. It is a practical, eye-opening conversation designed to help you feel clearer and more in control. 🧠 Whether you are in a relationship that has lost its spark or you are navigating dating and wondering why it keeps feeling so hard, this session will give you real insight and a new way forward. ✨ The Financial Freedom Club Meetup Group supports the policies and principles of Meetup. We make no guarantees and we do not offer financial services or assurances. Your results will reflect the time, effort, and consistency you put into applying what you learn. All our workshops are free to attend.

Data Engineers London will be at London's new and exciting conference, [Data Decoded](https://datadecoded.com/ldn) 🎉 After Data Decoded finishes, the data fun continues into the evening at the Olympia in Kensington. **Please subscribe to this event by registering to attend the Data Decoded conference ([link](https://datadecoded.com/)) NOT on Meetup.** **5:30pm:** Gathering at the Data Governance, Risk & Compliance Theatre. **5:45pm:** Talks Start 🗣️The Speakers🗣️ **The API-fication of Data Engineering with Data Contracts** ***Samhita Sarkar, Data Engineering Tech Lead at HP Inc*** ***([Samhita's LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/samhitasarkar/))*** ***Talk Abstract:*** Traditional data engineering is often reactive, relying on fragile pipelines that break whenever upstream software changes. By adopting Data Contracts, teams can shift toward a formal, versioned interface modelled after software APIs. This architectural evolution treats data as a public product, ensuring stability and ending the cycle of constant firefighting. ***Samhita's Bio:*** Samhita is a Data Engineering Tech Lead at HP Inc, having worked across diverse domains including marketing, supply chain and insurance in her career. Samhita is passionate about empowering others having mentored over 100 individuals, guiding them to navigate the career path in data engineering. **A data platform: The one we planned and the one we ended up with.** ***Luke Ashe-Browne, Co-Founder and Director of Technology & Consulting at Tyme Technologies ([Luke's LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lukeab/))*** ***Talk Abstract:*** Most data platform talks describe the version on the whiteboard. This one is about the version that arrives afterwards, once the design has met scale, delivery pressure, and the people who have to operate it. Drawing on a recent build for a multi-brand European e-commerce group, it walks through where the gap between planned and actual tends to open up, why it usually widens before it closes, and the kinds of decisions that bring a platform back into shape. This talk offers a view from the honest middle, rather than another greenfield case study. ***Luke's Bio:*** Luke Ashe-Browne is Co-Founder and Director of Technology and Consulting at TYME Technologies, advising businesses and engineering leaders on strategic data platforms, platform engineering, AI and digital delivery programmes. Over 25 years he has led data platform, Cloud, SRE and Kubernetes programmes for clients spanning finance, retail, media, public sector and regulated institutions. **7:30pm:** End of event. **Important Information About The Event:** **👉Please subscribe to this event by registering to attend the Data Decoded conference ([link](https://datadecoded.com/)).** 👉There will be no food & drinks provided at the theatre BUT the organisers are providing us with tickets to their afterparty at the Hilton Olympia.

Learn how seller finance and notes can create cash flow and new deal opportunities with 40-year investor Eddie Speed **FREE TICKET** 🎟️ https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-structure-real-estate-deals-using-seller-finance-and-notes-tickets-1984826171509?aff=cicmeetupapp Most real estate investors only know one way to make money: Buy the property. Fix the property. Rent it or sell it. But there’s another side of real estate that can create cash flow, flexibility, and opportunity without only focusing on owning more property. At this month’s Columbus Investors Club, Tiffany and Josh High are sitting down with Eddie Speed - a real estate veteran with 40 years of experience who has closed more than 50,000 note deals. He has spent decades helping investors understand how to structure deals through seller finance and notes, and how to think more like the bank instead of just the buyer. This will be a practical conversation around a part of real estate most people have heard about, but very few truly understand. If you’ve ever wanted to know how to create more opportunities in deals, generate cash flow in a different way, or understand how seller finance actually works in the real world, this is a night you want to be in the room for. You’ll walk away thinking about deals differently, seeing new possibilities, and understanding how creative structuring can open doors that traditional investing alone can’t. **What You’ll Learn** * How seller finance works in real estate deals * How notes fit into real estate and create opportunity * How to structure deals more creatively * How investors generate cash flow by focusing on the payment * How to think like the bank instead of only focusing on owning the property * How this strategy can create flexibility in today’s market **Open Q&A - Ask Eddie Anything About** * Seller finance and how to use it in real deals * How notes work in a practical, beginner-friendly way * Creating cash flow without only relying on rentals * Structuring deals that others might miss * How experienced investors think differently about financing * Common mistakes investors make when they only focus on the property **Why You Should Be in the Room** Because the investors who win in the long run know how to do more than just buy houses. They know how to structure.They know how to create terms.They know how to see opportunities other people miss. This is the kind of conversation that can expand the way you think about real estate entirely. Come ready to learn, ask questions, take notes, and connect with people who are serious about growing in this business. **Reserve your free seat now - and be part of the conversation.** Grab your spot here ➡️ https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-structure-real-estate-deals-using-seller-finance-and-notes-tickets-1984826171509?aff=cicmeetupapp

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
