Achieving Goals

**This Meeting’s Theme: “Resilience”** Resilience is the speaker's secret weapon! It’s not about giving a *perfect* speech; it's about how you recover when you stumble . It’s the power to find your place after a brain-freeze , to face the audience with courage , and to come back next week even stronger. So let's share our stories of bouncing back and celebrate the powerful growth that only comes from true persistence! \*\*\* You can **pay directly via Meetup**! For this meeting, we’re collecting **CHF 37**, which also includes a delicious dinner prepared by the restaurant. That’s dinner *and* personal growth in one go—what a deal! ️✨ Per default, you're in for the vegetarian option. If you want meat, let us know via PM before Sunday! \*\*\* ** Practice public speaking, sharpen your communication, and grow your leadership skills** Ever wanted to feel more confident speaking in front of others?

**What does it mean for you to show up as authentic in the world?** Many men move through life feeling they have to keep parts of themselves hidden. The strong part gets rewarded. The tender part stays quiet. Over time, this can create a subtle disconnect, especially in relationships. When you stop performing and start showing up more fully as yourself, people don’t just see you, they feel you. That’s where real connection begins. This evening is an invitation to explore that question together. In a relaxed bar setting, we’ll have a light but meaningful conversation about what authenticity looks like in your life right now — in relationships, at work, and within yourself. ### What we’ll touch on: * What authenticity means for you at this stage of life * Where you feel aligned and where you don’t * The balance between strength and openness * How authenticity shapes confidence and connection If you’ve been curious about our retreats, this is a great way to get a feel for the space and the conversations we value. **Next Men At Soul Work Retreat: May 29 – June 1** Come as you are. Leave a little more connected — to yourself and others.

Take with you all the necessary to swim, flip/flop, safe buoy (something like the orange donut here below, if you have it) and a Thermos. https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/a/7/5/600_466843637.jpeg See you there!

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.
