## GET TO KNOW **THE REAL YOU** Most of our lives we’ve been taught to believe that personality and also intelligence is a genetic trait that cannot be changed and that you just have to “deal with it.” This simply is not true. The fact is, you can become a much better, happier version of yourself that faces and conquers the challenges of life with knowledge and ease—**THE REAL YOU.** * Find your problem areas and discover your level of happiness, self-confidence, stability and more. * Find out how your personality determines your ability to handle relationships. * Know your strengths and how to increase them so that you can achieve more out of life. Amsterdam Test Center extends an invitation to you to be tested free of any charge. Such test would ordinarily cost you 450 euro. They are offered to you free of charge if you sign up for this meetup. These tests take about 2,5 hours including explaining your results. Come in any time you want between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM. These tests are done in the Scientology test area within the Scientology building.

**Burnout prevention and recovery** can be supported by stories that slow us down, help us feel less alone, and gently reconnect us to our shared humanity. On **Friday**, **January 2nd,** at **6.55 pm**, we’ll meet for an evening of stories at **Mezrab**, one of the most special venues in town, where you can laugh, cry, and connect through stories in the deepest way. The host of the event is **Gabriella Gargya**. **✨ Good to know:** * We’ll meet **in front of the venue**, then go in together, pick a spot, and do a short introduction before the show * The [event](https://mezrab.nl/events/mezrab-friday-night-storytelling-2-2025-08-01/) is **donation-based** (cash or Tikkie, paid during the show) * Stories are told in **English** * The evening has three sections with breaks; **stay as long as you wish**, just give a heads-up if you leave earlier. * **Homemade soup** is available to enjoy before the show **📝 Community guidelines** * If you **RSVP**, **please attend**. 💛 * If you need to cancel within **24 hours** before the event, reach out to me directly. After **two late cancellations or no-shows without notice**, or if **you don’t show up to your first** **event**, you’ll be **removed from the community.** 💔 * **Arrive on time** (a few minutes early is ideal). ⏰ * For **casual events**: stay as long or as little as you like, just let us know. For **workshops**: stay for the entire session. 🌿 * Be fully present and keep your **phones tucked away.** 📵 * You don’t need to be on burnout leave to join, but this is a community centered around **burnout prevention and recovery**. 🌸 * Be **kind and respectful**; any harmful or unsafe behavior will lead to being asked to leave and removed from the community. 🚫 * Be kind, be mindful, and have fun ✨

'I WHO HAVE NEVER KNOWN MEN' by Jaqueline Harpman "As far back as I can recall, I have been in the bunker." A young woman is kept in a cage underground with thirty-nine other females, guarded by armed men who never speak; her crimes unremembered... if indeed there were crimes. 'The youngest of forty—a child with no name and no past—she survives for some purpose long forgotten in a world ravaged and wasted. In this reality where intimacy is forbidden—in the unrelenting sameness of the artificial days and nights—she knows nothing of books and time, of needs and feelings. Then everything changes... and nothing changes. A young woman who has never known men—a child who knows of no history before the bars and restraints—must now reinvent herself, piece by piece, in a place she has never been... and in the face of the most challenging and terrifying of unknowns: freedom.' Please read the book and join us for a lively discussion (in English) about the contents during our afternoon book club meeting. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- PLEASE NOTE: This is an IN-PERSON event in Amersfoort, The Netherlands. Please cancel your attendance in advance if you are unable to join, so that those on the waitlist can participate. Looking forward to seeing you all IN REAL LIFE then! Best regards, Sandra

Coming in January 2026: a warm, reflective gathering to close one chapter and open another. More details coming soon. Together, we look back at the moments, shifts, and practices that shaped the past year—what worked, what surprised us, and what we’re ready to release. Then we lean forward into who we want to become: the intentions, experiments, and stories we want next January’s version of ourselves to be telling. A gentle, inspiring circle that invites clarity, connection, and shared wisdom.Check us out on Meetup to learn more and rsvp #womeninagilecolumbus #womeninagile
