The monthly pause (reflect & decide)

A monthly guided writing session to reflect on your past month, and set clear intentions for the next one.

Why join
Life moves fast. Without pausing, months blur into each other. Same patterns, same excuses, no real sense of progress. This is a space to stop, get honest with yourself, and walk away with clarity on what actually matters next.

Who it's for
Anyone who wants to be more intentional: professionals, international minds, people at a crossroads, or simply people who like to check in with themselves regularly.

What you'll get
A few sharp, honest questions. Time to actually answer them. And a concrete takeaway you can act on this coming month.

Format
Cameras are on. Mics are off.
This is not a conversation meetup. We are here to reflect by handwriting.
We will have 4 sections. In each section, I will ask a few, thoughtful questions. One at a time. Then a few minutes of silence, together, to write your answers on paper. I hold the pace. You do the reflecting.

• Part I — Looking back: what actually happened this month
• Part II — The honest cut: what you've been avoiding
• Part III — Looking forward: what matters most next month
• Part IV — One clear takeaway to carry into the month ahead

What to bring
Join the call on time.
Bring pen and paper. Nothing else.

Why does it work
The format is simple, no fluff, and it's the same every month. It compounds over time. That's why it works.
Sure, you can do this writing exercise on your own every month. But alone, chances are: you just won't. Plus, writing as part of a group hits different.
1/ Use your focus better:

• Practice to prioritise better
• Practice being more intentional
• Practice being more grateful

2/ Take action:

• Practice taking decisions
• Practice limiting your options
• Be held accountable

Ground rules
Our goal is to create events that are safe, welcoming, respectful, and enjoyable for everyone. By attending this event, you agree to respect the Event Terms.
To protect the integrity of the space, the host reserves the right to remove participants who do not respect these terms.

Hi I'm Pierre
I created this Meetup group because I want to surface more relatedness amongst people, online and offline. I feel many of us want this, but don't exactly know how to go about it. I hope this helps a little bit.
I am also a certified coach. I work mostly with international minds, tech professionals and reflective individuals who are reaching a crossroads in their career. Often stuck in “autopilot mode”, often exhausted. Longing for a change, for “something more”. Without knowing what.
Coaching with me is warm, direct and curious.
No advice, no fixed answers. Just an honest conversation. A structured space to think, decide, and act.
