This is the first event and I would like to welcome everyone. I’m currently setting up the Meetup group focused on dating and meaningful connections for Australian-born Chinese (ABC) singles aged 35–50 in Melbourne. To build this group into a warm, well-run, and sustainable community, I’m looking for 2–3 friendly and reliable co-organisers to help shape and run the group together. We can start by co-hosting one event together and see if it’s a good fit, with no pressure or long-term commitment upfront. If this sounds interesting, please send me a message with a brief introduction about yourself and why you’d like to be involved. I’d love to connect and have a chat. Phone number: 0433092588 Lauren

Do you walk away from small talk feeling drained, overstimulated, or bored out of your mind?… 😵‍💫💤 …but when you find someone you can go deep with, suddenly you can talk for hours and feel more energised than when you started? ⚡💬 Does this rarely happen, such that you'd love to be skilled so when the opportunity comes up again - you want to be ready to make it meaningful? Then welcome — this workshop is designed exactly for you. 🤝🌟 **Ideal for:** * Neurodivergent adults (Autistic, ADHD, AuDHD) who want real connection, not surface noise 🧠💛 * People frustrated by dating-app banter or repetitive first-date conversations that never go anywhere * Anyone who wants friendships or relationships with substance, emotion, and depth * Those wanting to learn attunement, presence, and powerful question skills that make conversations richer and more engaging 🔍👂💡 This session is for people who want conversations that feel alive, honest, and energising — not draining. ⚡🔋 **Why Powerful Questions Matter** Researchers like **David Clutterbuck** found that a “powerful question” can shift the direction of someone’s thinking — helping them reflect, feel, and reveal things that actually matter. The best questions are personal, resonant, emotionally impactful, non-judgmental, and clear. They go beyond information-gathering… and into insight. [Click here to What makes a Powerful Question.](https://clutterbuck-cmi.com/blogs/what-makes-a-powerful-question/#:~:text=Based%20on%20analysis%20of%20hundreds,the%20heart%20of%20the%20issue) When you ask these kinds of questions with empathy, curiosity, and presence, conversations naturally become deeper, more authentic, and far more energising than small talk ever could. ✅ **What You’ll Learn** * What makes a question “powerful” and why it changes the conversation * A starter toolkit of powerful questions for dates, friendships, and real-life social moments * How to listen in a way that makes people *feel safe* to open up * How to read emotional cues and attune to the other person * How to hold space without fixing, pushing, or interrupting * Real-time practice with rotating partners * Feedback and reflection to strengthen your skills * A chance to share your social challenges so future sessions can be tailored to you 🔄 **How the Session Flows** * Warm welcome + safety setup * What actually makes a question powerful (mini-teach) * Sample toolkit + why these questions work * Paired practice rounds (fun, safe, structured) * Group reflection: What surprised you? What opened something? * Optional deeper practice round * Quick feedback survey * Closing + practical next steps 💡 **Example Powerful Questions You Can Use** * **1.** *What shaped you into who you are today?* **2.** *What matters most to you right now?* * **3**. *What* is **most hard** about *(x challenge)*? **4.** *What does success look like for you?* **5.** *What are you wanting or needing that you rarely talk about?* **6.** *What moments make you feel most alive or seen?* **7.** *What drains your social energy?* * **8.** *(Followup) What restores it?* **9.** *What’s one thing you’d love to change about how you connect with people?* These questions help you move from shallow chat… to meaningful dialogue, and thus connection.

Step into 2026 with intention, clarity, and a creative practice designed to help you see yourself more clearly. In this special Confidence Lab session, we’ll explore confidence as something you can curate - through the choices you make, the qualities you amplify, and the story you choose to step into. We’ll start with a short guided reflection to surface the traits, habits, and energies you want to nurture in the coming year. Then, using collage materials selected specifically for this workshop, you’ll translate those insights into a visual composition that represents the version of yourself you’re ready to grow toward. This isn’t about resolutions or perfection. It’s about crafting a grounded, imaginative vision of your next chapter - one that feels honest, energizing, and fully yours. All materials are provided. Just bring yourself (and a friend) and a willingness to explore what confidence can look like for you in 2026. **Featured Partner: Columbus Collage Collective** The Columbus Collage Collective was started in August of 2023 by Emily Morgan (aka Lovely But Dead) and Douglas Cuckler (aka Wonder Doug) as a place for collage enthusiasts to gather and create art together. The collective has since become a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the mission to hold free or low-cost collage events across central Ohio. The CCC welcomes all artists of all backgrounds and skill levels and encourages folks to take this time to step away from everyday existence and create art with people who share a love for this dynamic art form. All materials—magazines, scissors, craft knives, glue, paper, cardboard, and more—are provided, so there's no need to bring anything at all (though you're welcome to bring a friend or a favorite tool if you'd like!). We also encourage folks to take home magazines and materials from our events to support continued creativity!

Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome!
