Extra Income. Zero Risk. Flexible Hours.Become Entrepreneur
[Register here](https://www.eventbrite.be/e/extra-income-zero-risk-flexible-hoursbecome-entrepreneur-tickets-1986033469570?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true)
Overview
Ready to create something real? Let's go. This isn't just another event. It's your starting line.
### You're not looking for a miracle. You're looking for a method.
Maybe you have bills to cover.
Maybe you want breathing room.
Maybe you're tired of saying "no" to things because your paycheck says "not yet."
**You don't want to quit your job.**
You just want *more* — without blowing up your life.
**You want:**
* ✅ **Additional income** — real, recurring, scalable
* ✅ **Flexible hours** — evenings, weekends, between meetings
* ✅ **Entrepreneurial freedom** — without gambling your savings
* ✅ **Zero financial risk** — no inventory, no upfront investment, no "buy-in"
**That's exactly what this event is about.**
## Join us for one powerful afternoon
You'll walk away with more than inspiration.
You'll leave with a **blueprint**. A system that works.
**No fluff. No hype. No risk.**
This is not a "quit your job and pray" pitch.
This is a **how-to** event for people who want to **build a real income stream on the side** — without touching their savings.
## What you'll learn
**Health**
How to take control of your body — because you can't pour from an empty cup.
*(Yes, even on a side hustle schedule.)*
**Impact**
How to change lives the way yours is about to change.
One person. One family. One community.
**Scalable income**
How to stop trading time for money and start building something that grows as fast as you do.
*(While you sleep. While you work your day job. While you're with your family.)*
## Why this is different
**No risk** → You are not asked to invest money. Zero. Zilch.
**No inventory** → Nothing to store, ship, or buy upfront.
**No cold selling** → You learn a leverage system that uses people you already know.
**No quitting your job** → This is built for flexible hours. Evenings. Weekends. Lunch breaks.
> *“The dentist had 40,000 patients. Only 7,000 active. She didn't need new clients. She needed leverage on the ones she already had.”*
You already have a circle. You already have trust. You already have *something* to build on.
**We show you how to wake up the sleeping gold.**
## What people say about this approach
> *“Life before meeting Dorina — and life after.”*
She moved to Brussels. Bought her own house young. Showed her circle: *if I can do it, you can do it.*
Now she scales that same impact. For people exactly like you.
**No risk. Real leverage. Flexible hours.**
## Who this is for
✅ You have a job but want **extra income**
✅ You want **control over your time** — not a second boss
✅ You're open to **serving others** as an entrepreneur
✅ You will **not** write a check to start
✅ You're tired of "side hustles" that feel like another job
**Who this is NOT for**
❌ People looking to get rich overnight
❌ People unwilling to learn a system
❌ People who don't show up
## Stop wishing. Start building.
**Seats are limited.** So is your time. Don't waste either.
Bring yourself. Bring your dreams. Leave with a plan.
**See you there. Bring your hunger.**

Maybe in the end, it'll be all about the friends we made along the way 🧀
**📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?**
FTST is an out-of-the-box **social experience** where strangers come together for an afternoon of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. It’s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for **games**, **talks**, and **connections** with **friends you haven’t met yet**. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in Brussels every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you. 🙌
**📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?**
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You'll be guided by an experienced host who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. 🍭

**💛 WHAT THEY SAY**
🗣 “This is the kind of activity **humanity needs every weekend**. Thank you for all.” - *Sonya*
🗣 “F\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - Monika
🗣 "It’s a **wonderful** **experience**, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara

**🤓 FAQ**
**• Can I come alone?**
Of course, we encourage it :)
**• Can I be late?**
Please don't! Late arrivals will disrupt the floooooooow.
**• I signed up but never got an invite. Why?**
We usually get a high volume of sign-ups yet we like to keep it cozy & only invite around 30 people. Please try again next time if you do not receive an invite - no hard feelings 💛
**• Why do you charge?**
We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. ♥️ This is our project/business and what we give to the world and we think everything should be a fair exchange! 🎈 However, money should never be the reason for people not to attend. If you can’t afford it send us a message!
**• Is this a networking or dating event?**
Nope! Think of us as the* anti-networking *and* anti-speed dating *event. There’s no pressure, no pitches, and no cringy icebreakers. Instead, we create spaces where strangers can connect through fun & meaningful conversations. It’s all about authentic connection—no business cards or romantic expectations required. (doesn’t mean it* can’t *happen—it’s just not the intention!)
𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙘𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙤𝙪𝙨, 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙚𝙙. ✨
\* Location is only revealed to ticket holders!
🙅♀️📱This event is a no-phone experience. 🙅♀️📱
We started in Berlin back in 2019 out of the frustration of being asked 'Where are you from?' multiple times at every single meetup! Now there are chapters in 15 cities including Medellin, Lisbon, Buenos Aires, Zurich, and London! 🗺️

Burnaby Virtual Speed Dating for Beginners
**✨ Real One-on-One Rounds Online for Burnaby Singles Done Swiping**
As a participant, you'll experience quick private Zoom rounds with Burnaby singles matched to you by age and personality, as a friendly host guides every transition.
Once you register, you fill in a quick matching survey — your personality profile from that quiz to curate your Burnaby matches by quiz results and age, meaning your rounds are curated and not random.
After the session closes, mutual match details are distributed — contact details flow only on mutual selection — and what happens next is entirely up to you.
**Age-grouped registration — select yours:**
- **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Burnaby&groupurlname=the-collective-for-intentional-social-growth&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0)
- **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Burnaby&groupurlname=the-collective-for-intentional-social-growth&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0)
- **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Burnaby&groupurlname=the-collective-for-intentional-social-growth&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0)
- **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Burnaby&groupurlname=the-collective-for-intentional-social-growth&ar=55+&face_v=4.0)
**⚠️ Heads up:** Your rsvp here is not a registration confirmation, so select your bracket link, complete the registration form, and finish the personality quiz — places are capped so do this promptly, and your spot is held only when both steps are done.
---
**What to expect**
1. **Grab your spot** – via your age group registration link, then complete the short matching survey, as both steps are required and neither can be skipped.
2. **Log in** – using the video link shared before the session, any device with a camera and mic is all you need, and round management is all on the host from there.
3. **Date** – short Zoom speed dating rounds with Burnaby area singles in your age range, as the host signals round starts and ends, because the format is built so every round is worth having.
4. **See your results** – after the event you will receive any mutual match details, and only confirmed mutual matches receive each other's contact details, and everything from that point is on your schedule.
**Best suited to:**
- People within Burnaby wanting to escape matches that fade out before meeting and want to meet real locals without the faff.
- Singles calling Burnaby home moving beyond dating apps that go nowhere and are serious about meeting someone.
- Someone based in Burnaby wanting to escape conversations that fizzle before a first date and are ready for a genuine first impression.
⭐ *"Not what I expected at all — better than every app I have tried"* – Burnaby local who came sceptical
💡 **Good to know:** check your Zoom setup in advance, because good audio is just as important as good video, and the host handles everything else from that point.
---
✨ Real conversations from home — register via your age group link and we will set the rest up for you in your own time. Can not wait to see you there. 💘 ✨

Surrey Beginner Focused Interactive Speed Dating
**🔥 Real Rounds Real People for Surrey Locals Age Grouped — No Apps**
Joining means you'll go through host-managed one-on-one rounds with Surrey people compatibility-matched and age-grouped, while a host keeps the rounds comfortable.
Before the event, a personality questionnaire is built into the sign-up — your personality data from the quiz to line up well-matched Surrey people for your rounds, making every round feel more natural from the first minute.
After the session closes, we share who chose whom — without any awkward one-way messages — and you follow up whenever it suits you.
**Register by age group:**
- **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Surrey&groupurlname=sparking-lasting-ties-through-outdoor-socials&ar=18-32&face_v=6.0)
- **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Surrey&groupurlname=sparking-lasting-ties-through-outdoor-socials&ar=30-46&face_v=6.0)
- **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Surrey&groupurlname=sparking-lasting-ties-through-outdoor-socials&ar=40-58&face_v=6.0)

**⚠️ Important:** An rsvp here alone does not secure your place, so select your age range link above, fill in the registration, and answer the personality quiz — registration closes once spots fill so act fast, and only the combination of both confirms your attendance.
---
**Who shows up:**
- Those living in Surrey wanting to escape matches that fade out before meeting and want real chemistry over profile photos.
- Daters across Surrey moving on from swiping with nothing to show for it and want real chemistry over profile photos.
- First-timers locally in Surrey who are tired of conversations that fizzle before a first date and are ready for something that feels natural.
- People from Surrey getting away from apps that waste evenings for no return and want real chemistry over profile photos.
- Individuals from the Surrey area fed up with digital dating that never converts to anything real and value real conversation over curated profiles.
**Details**
- **Format:** Personality-matched in a hosted Zoom session centred on focused one-on-one video dates, sorted to your age group and personality profile in advance.
- **Where:** Entirely virtual — on whatever device you prefer, all tech requirements are camera mic and Wi-Fi, and you can pick whatever quiet spot works for you.
- **Host:** A welcoming host runs the whole show so you do not have to think about format, freeing you up to be fully present in each round — every detail of the evening is managed for you.
- **Vibe:** Genuinely enjoyable one-on-one chats with Surrey area singles who chose to be here, and it never feels forced or awkward.
- **Duration:** Runs for roughly 60-90 minutes from first round to last, with most rounds feeling short.
**How it works**
1. **Confirm your place** – via the registration link above for your bracket, then answer the short personality questions, as without this your RSVP holds nothing.
2. **Join the video call** – by opening the Zoom link at the event start, phone computer or tablet — whatever you prefer, and from that moment the host runs the whole show.
3. **Rotate through dates** – host-guided one-on-one rounds with personality-matched Surrey locals in your group, with the host keeping everything comfortable and on schedule, since the quiz results put the right people in your rounds.
4. **Find your matches** – mutual matches are sent to you privately after the event ends, with mutual-only sharing meaning no awkward one-sided messages, and you reach out whenever you feel ready.

✨ It starts with one registration — register via your age group link and the host takes it from there before spots go. See you on the other side. 🥰 ✨
