See all- In the Messy Middle: Sharing Stories & Finding StrengthOutrun Cafe, Helsinki
Starting something new takes courage, but what happens after that first step?
The truth is, beginnings are only the spark. The real challenge is in the messy middle: when things get hard, when motivation slips, when doubts creep in, when the path is unclear.
💎 This Thinkers & Makers evening is about sharing real stories of what it takes to keep going, the failures, the pauses, the breakthroughs, and the small wins that make all the difference.
Come as you are: you can listen, share, or simply connect. No need to perform, just bring curiosity and openness.
Agenda:
17:30 – Arrival & Welcome
18:00 – Opening: Raw & Real Stories- Our community members will share their stories of their messy middle moments.
- Space for listening, reflection, and connection.
19:00 – Closing Circle & Connections
- Stay around for chats, connections, and warm vibes.
🌱 For anyone navigating the in-between, this evening will remind you that the messy middle isn’t the end, it’s where growth and connection truly happen.
In collaboration with Outrun Café – a soulful café in the heart of Helsinki, lovingly built as a haven for stories, creativity, and connection.
Pst! Do try the signature Monster Croissant, Chicken Pita Pocket, and fresh sandwiches, best enjoyed with a cup of coffee for the full café experience!😋
