About us
From Brisbane, to Saigon and beyond! Join us online from wherever you are in the world. :Come hang with us in person if you happen to be visiting Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 😊
In love with personal development? In love with reading? Well, then, this is the group for you! This is a space for real and raw discussions, where you are invited to bring your whole self to the table, not just the 'good vibes only' version. Even if you feel like absolute crud on the day and just want to giggle at our lively discussion with your camera off, that's cool too 😁.
We discuss a featured personal development book every month and outline strategies for implementing key take-aways for the betterment of our own lives as well as for the lives of those around us.
Are you writing a personal development book? Well, this is a great opportunity to connect with a community of readers interested in the genre!
These meetings are facilitated by a full-time Life Coach (yours truly) and former university educator with over a decade of international experience in facilitating discussions across groups from various cultural backgrounds and beliefs. We value inclusivity 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️✊🏽🖤💛❤, and insist on respect discussion of differing views.

The Year I Met My Brain, by Matilda Boseley | Meeting #55!
·OnlineOnline==We're moving our April meetup to May due to many clashing international public holidays! Details below==
Attention fellow ADHDers, suspected ADHDers, and people who love an ADHDer! This book explores a topic that is often absent from personal development media, so we're going to put it in the spotlight 😎. Join us for meeting #55 in May to discuss The Year I Met My Brain: A travel companion for adults who have just found out they have ADHD, by Matilda Boseley!

Join us online or in-person at The Loop in Thao Dien, HCMC Vietnam.
You don't even have to read the book to participate!From the book jacket:
Matilda Boseley's adult ADHD diagnosis was a massive, earth-shattering event. She was given a prescription but had no idea what ADHD meant for her identity, her relationships or her future. Twelve months of confusion later, journalist Matilda embarked on an epic voyage to figure out what's really happening in the stormy seas of the ADHD brain and write the guide she wished she'd had.
The Year I Met My Brain is the ultimate travel companion for navigating and enjoying life as an ADHD adult, covering: what adult ADHD symptoms look like, why so many ADHDers (especially females) are missed as kids, how the disorder impacts our relationships, careers and self-esteem, why we unfairly treat ourselves like failures and how to find self-forgiveness and healing, practical tips for social and organisational wins, and most importantly, how to make our lives work to fit our brains rather than trying to force our brains to fit our lives.
This meeting will be facilitated by a full-time Life Coach (me!) and former university educator with over a decade of international experience in facilitating groups from various cultural backgrounds and beliefs. We insist on respectful and inclusive interactions! 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈✊🏽 We're also not into 'positive vibes only'--we want real and raw discussion, so we welcome ALL the vibes. It's more fun that way 😁.
