It's not a therapy session. It just feels like one...🤷🏻‍♂️ ​Για όσα δεν λέγονται στα τραπέζια... ​ 🎭Ένα διαφορετικό (private) event στο roof top του (Boutique Hotel) Moon & Stars, σε έναν ιδιαίτερο χώρο και με θέα την Ακρόπολη! (Δες φώτο πιο κάτω) 🗓️ Σάββατο 25/4 και ώρα 19:30. ​ 💬 Τι θα γίνει εκεί λοιπόν; Καθόμαστε όλοι μαζί και ξετυλίγουμε ανώνυμα τις σκέψεις μας. Σκέψεις, εξομολογήσεις, ερωτήματα και εσωτερικές ανησυχίες... ​Εκφράζουμε (ανώνυμα) αυτά που μας καίνε, μας φτιάχνουν, μας χαλάνε ή δεν έχουμε πει ποτέ δυνατά ενώ θα θέλαμε. Μιλάμε για ύπαρξη, κοινωνία, φιλοσοφία, σχέσεις, επιλογές, διλήμματα ή και όχι μόνο. (Δε μιλάμε για αθλητικά και πολιτική) ​ 🎲 Τι είναι και πώς λειτουργεί.. ​Μόλις δηλώσεις συμμετοχή, αυτόματα θα λάβεις μέσω email ένα link όπου με όλες τις σχετικές οδηγίες, θα περιέχει μεταξύ άλλων, την φόρμα για να γράψεις και να στείλεις το δικό σου twist ανώνυμα. twist = ένα θέμα προς συζήτηση, ή μία ερώτηση ή μία εξομολόγηση ή μία ιστορία που σε άγγιξε. [Για ακόμη περισσότερες λεπτομέρειες πάτα εδώ να μάθεις!](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gNDtiTrcUOQQmEWunBj4h8FtbE06tZCb2SWhMIhBfnE/edit?usp=sharing) ​Στο event και όταν τα twists αρχίζουν να "ξετυλίγονται" στο τραπέζι, δεν είσαι υποχρεωμένος/η να πάρεις θέση απαραίτητα, εάν ένα twist τύχει να σου προκαλέσει δυσφορία. Αλλά μπορείς να πας "πάσο" μέχρι δύο φορές... ​Αν θες ακόμη περισσότερες και πιο αναλυτικές διευκρινίσεις σχετικά με την διαδικασία ρώτησέ με ή στείλε μου μήνυμα... ​ 🎯 Στόχος; να περιφρονήσουμε τα συμβατικά small talks και να συνδεθούμε μέσα από απαντήσεις που δεν λέγονται η δίνονται τόσο εύκολα. Να γελάσουμε, να νιώσουμε, να σκεφτούμε, να εκφραστούμε χωρίς λογοκρισία, ή ίσως και να ανακαλύψουμε μεριές του εαυτού μας, που για κάποιο λόγο ήταν κρυμμένες ή και που αποφεύγαμε να δούμε... 🎟️ Σε αυτό το event υπάρχει συμμετοχή 9€ έως 12€ για τον συγκεκριμένο χώρο, που περιλαμβάνει κρασί, ή μπύρα στα 9€, ή ποτό στα 12€. Με προκράτηση τα παραπάνω. Πέρα από αυτά μπορεί κάποιος να παραγγείλει κάτι extra αν θελήσει και ανάλογα την διαθεσιμότητα. [Εδώ είναι η φόρμα για να δηλώσεις συμμετοχή!](https://luma.com/vsbyqndx)

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

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

Our next much-awaited **COLUMBUS** meetup is **Tuesday April 21 from 7-10 pm EST at ACE OF CUPS**. Meet patients, cultivators, processors, dispensary managers/staff, physicians, home growers, educators, activists, nonprofits, artists, attorneys, business owners, writers, students, and supporters to network, share our knowledge, collaborate, support each other and make new ones! Hope you will be there too! Save the date and pass the word. **Please RSVP** so we know who is coming and how many to expect. Find us to say hi and we will introduce you to others. We should be easy to spot. (The happy-looking group wearing cool nametags! See photos from our past events.) Sign in, grab a name tag, start your own bar/food tab, meet old friends and make new ones! Everyone is welcome. SEE YOU THERE!
