The 3rd Place: Gen Y & Z Social Collective

We are a community Third Place for emerging and mature adult Millennials (a.k.a. Generation Y) and Generation Z. It is our time to forge deep relationships to make our impact on society as we ascend towards self-actualization!

Let us have meaningful social experiences and a chance to bond authentically with others who want to take the initiative and put in the effort!

Curious about who makes up Gen Y and Gen Z? A quick internet search will bring you up to speed! Here’s a helpful link (Generation Names: A Guide to Generations by Year). While it’s not a black and white definition, our themes and activities will reflect the challenges and aspirations of our age cohorts. That said, if you knowingly join and attend despite being outside of the target generational cohorts, you will have clearly violated a basic social boundary and will NOT be tolerated.

Core Principles
Tune In & Connect (Active Listening): We listen to each other with intent and take some interest in our peers.

Be Present & Engaged (Mindfulness): Let's put those distractions aside and give our full attention to the people and moments we share.

Authenticity: Forget corporate vibes! We're a space where you can show up as your true self, quirks and all. If you've ever felt the need to mask who you are, this is your invitation to unapologetically be you. Let's make it a habit!

Stay Humble & Open (Humility): We're all on a journey, and no one here is above anyone else. Be mindful of your interactions – if conversations seem to consistently revolve around you, it might be time to adjust. Don’t dominate, elevate!

Abundance Mindset: Come with the attitude of how much you can create, give and contribute, not just materially or monetarily, but socially, emotionally and energetically.

Integrity & Accountability: Your time and energy are valued. If you RSVP, please honor that commitment. Life happens, and we understand that, but if you can't make it, update your RSVP. No-shows (RSVPing and then not attending) can derail the group's planning. If you're unsure about your availability, hold off on RSVPing and save or bookmark the event instead (save button is at the top-right of the event title usually), and you’ll get a reminder before the event.

Code of Conduct

• Unsolicited contact - Please do not message attendees who you have not yet gotten to know in person.
• No business promotion or solicitation - Your best marking tool is your rapport! Build it first, and you will earn people's trust.
• Please avoid group chats or non-event related communications in the public comment sections of the events or group. Posting public salutations or greetings may feel good, but they clutter the board for important logistical announcements or event preparation reminders. And please refrain from publicly posting the cliche “I’m new and looking forward to meeting people” or similar announcements ahead of events! If you are intentional about connecting with people, demonstrate it by attending (Virtual posts do not earn you “partial-credit kudos”.).
• Unsolicited romantic advances or the like will not be tolerated! And this applies to anyone of any gender or background. Understand the difference between considerate, civilized connection versus inappropriate approaches. “No” means no!

About the Organizer
Tanin has actively participated in and organized various events and groups since conquering his own social anxiety in 2019. After taking over and rejuvenating the MBTI iNtuitives of North Dallas (now known as the “I & E Social Club”) from the depths of the pandemic, he founded his own group in 2021, The Conscious Growth Society, with the intention of bringing together growth-minded individuals to connect socially, participate in helping each other and community, and discuss complex topics using critical thinking and spiritual principles. The 3rd Place: Gen Y & Z Social Collective Meetup is his latest foray into forging a community but with a focus on local emerging adults to achieve self-mastery, deep connection and greater societal impact.

We are NOT affiliated with any business, religious, or spiritual organizations. Our goal is to facilitate quality recurring social time between growth-oriented growing adults. We do NOT support MLM, paid mentorship/life coaching, network marketing, real-estate/entrepreneurial education, or related exploitative schemes.
