Authentic connections: Slow dating (30-45 Edition)

### About This Event

IMPORTANT NOTE **Please purchase a ticket before attending. I truly don’t want to turn anyone away, especially someone who has come with an open heart looking for connection. At the same time, keeping numbers and genders balanced is essential for this event to work well for everyone. If you arrive without a ticket, I may not be able to let you in. Please book ahead to avoid disappointment.**

This is dating reimagined.
Slower. More intentional. More honest.
You’ll meet a group of open-hearted singles through playful, guided activities and real conversations. No pretending, no trying to impress. Just showing up as yourself and seeing what unfolds when two people meet with curiosity and presence.
People often leave feeling lighter, more alive, and reminded that meaningful connection is still possible.

### About the Facilitator

Hi, I’m Maz.
I facilitate Authentic Connections workshops and dating experiences for people who want to meet others without the pressure, the performance, or the games. My work is grounded in lived experience, psychology-informed insight, and a deep belief that connection happens when we let ourselves be real.
My intention is simple.

To help people drop the masks, feel safe being themselves, and connect in a way that actually feels good.
✨ Real. Playful. Human.
