Just show up, be yourself, and enjoy an evening of effortless conversations and meaningful new connections. **You will need to buy a ticket for attending -** [https://zurich18thapril.eventbrite.co.uk](https://zurich18thapril.eventbrite.co.uk) \*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout.

Hello together 0-10! Life feels more fulfilling when we can double our happiness and reduce our obstacles. It's not about how many - "1234567", it's about how and how much! I’m excited to share this event. Many women define themselves through their careers, while others embrace identities as housewives, mothers, or through their achievements. But identity is personal and evolving—so how do you define yourself? I believe your personal brand is your new title. It reflects who you are, what you stand for, and the value you bring. If you’re ready to explore this journey, I’d love to collaborate with you to shape your story and help you get published in a digital journal and SuccessXL. Let’s build something meaningful together—because strong branding begins with authentic expression. We can meet after, have a discussion, why we need each other? How do you want to see yourself in the mirror and how do you want to be seen by us? Common Sense Fact: Keyliu is a computer scientist, creator, and brand visionary who seamlessly blends technology, creativity, and innovation. She harnesses the power of music, AI-driven tools, and strategic content creation to elevate her brand’s presence, crafting engaging digital experiences that set her work apart in an ever-evolving landscape. She has been living in Zurich for a while. Funny thing about her: She has sweet teeth sometimes. She shares her brand signature donuts with us, like sharing the wing🪽! It gives you "wing" vibe! If she is not working "normal 12"! She works on her "songs&videos" to have her kind of fun with relentless positivity! She enjoyed travel with F1 for a few years, that time was crazy cool partly! (SOME found it was sort of homelessness... well, everyone can have an opinion, but their simple opinion doesn't matter! Throw them basically! Remove negative people is the key to a better life!) That was why she wrote "CAR Racing"! She is very pround of it! Because she created MAGIC from NOTHING through unforgettable experiences. She desired to be a modern Angel with Ferrari. ☺️ Now, it's time to move from "Cinderella" to "Woman Warrior"!

A space to return to what is essential We invite you to take part in a ritual gathering for men, created for those who feel the call to pause, breathe, and reconnect with their inner strength in a safe and authentic space. We gather in the forest, around the grandfather fire, to share ceremonial cacao and form a circle of presence, listening, and brotherhood. This is not a workshop, nor a talk, nor a “self-improvement” experience. It is a living space of encounter, where each man is welcome exactly as he is. There are no hierarchies here, no masks to wear. Only men walking their own path, supported by the strength of the circle. **Who is this gathering for?** * This circle is open to men who: * Seek a more honest connection with themselves. * Feel the desire to inhabit their masculinity with greater awareness and maturity. * Value silence, authentic speech, and presence. * Wish to experience brotherhood beyond competition or judgment. * Are willing to listen and to be listened to. * No previous experience with circles, rituals, or spiritual practices is required. Only a willingness to be present. **What we will experience together** During this gathering of approximately two hours, we will move through simple yet profound practices, guided with care and clarity: * Ceremonial Cacao Circle, Cacao as a heart medicine, supporting openness, listening, and authentic expression. * Sacred Fire, The grandfather fire as the center of the gathering, witness to our intentions and processes. * Meditation and Presence, Moments of silence and inner connection, held by the group. * Talking Circle, A safe space to share from truth, without advice or judgment. * Connection with Nature: The forest as a living temple that reminds us of what truly matters. * Expression and Rhythm: An optional moment of music, song, or percussion to integrate the experience. Each gathering honors the energy of conscious masculinity, integrating strength and sensitivity, direction and openness. **Practical information** Duration: Approximately 2 hours Location: Forests of Zurich (The exact location is shared after registration) Energy exchange: Single ticket: 30 CHF Brothers ticket (2 people): 50 CHF Places are limited to preserve the quality and intimacy of the circle. **What to bring** * A cup for ceremonial cacao * A water bottle * Wood for the fire * An offering for the altar (fruit, seeds, a photo, or something that represents love and gratitude) * Notebook and pen * Musical instrument (optional) * Comfortable, warm clothing for outdoor conditions * Something light to eat after the gathering * We recommend fasting for at least 2 hours beforehand, as we will be working with ceremonial cacao. * A held and conscious space * This gathering is held with respect, confidentiality, and presence. Everything shared in the circle remains within the circle.

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional

You can also join the meeting by Conference Call at (518) 263-8851.
