Inclusion Networking Sydney

Happy Ending | The Curious Readers Club #Meetup2

For this month’s gathering, we’re switching things up from our last non-fiction read and diving into something a little lighter, warm, and easygoing—perfect for a cozy, feel-good break. We’ll be reading Happy Ending by Chloe Liese, a contemporary romance that blends humour, heart, and emotionally grounded characters navigating love, connection, and personal growth. It’s a breezy read that still gently explores deeper themes around relationships, vulnerability, and what it means to choose love in today’s world—without giving away too much, of course! 📖 In our discussion, we’ll chat about: * Our favourite moments and character dynamics (no spoilers!) * Modern dating culture—what’s changed, what hasn’t * The pros and cons of single life vs committed relationships * How we define love, independence, and emotional connection today Most importantly, it’s a space to unwind, share perspectives, and enjoy thoughtful conversation in a relaxed, welcoming setting. Come along for books, honest conversations, and a bit of laughter along the way 💛

Guided Women’s Business Networking

**A monthly networking experience designed differently!** Our structured networking event is for women who want to grow, not just in business, but as individuals. Through meaningful conversations, thought-provoking reflection questions, and guided table rotations, you’ll gain fresh perspectives, build genuine connections, and challenge yourself to think bigger. **📝 How it works** **1\. Arrive & connect** You’ll be welcomed and seated at a table with a reflection prompt to kick-start the conversation. **2\. Dive into meaningful conversations** Each round explores a different question designed to spark honest discussions around business, personal growth, and the challenges that matter most. **3\. Meet someone new every 20 minutes** We guide every table rotation, so you’ll naturally connect with lots of different women throughout the evening, without any awkwardness. By the end of the night, you’ll leave with meaningful new connections, fresh perspectives, and greater clarity on your next steps. **🔎 How to Find Rabbit Bar** Rabbit Bar can be tricky to spot: 1. Go to the ground floor of **The Galeries** 2. Look for **Toastie Smith** 3. Behind it, you’ll see a semi-enclosed area 4. Walk down into that area 5. On your right, you’ll see a doorway. Enter it 6. Then look for another open door immediately to your right. That’s **Rabbit Bar**! 📲 **Got questions?** Feel free to message me here on Meetup. **Looking forward to a room full of real talk. See you there! xx** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Want to learn more about Her Collective Space?** Follow us on Instagram: [@hercollectivespace](http://www.instagram.com/hercollectivespace/)
