Thousands of Toastmasters participate each year in Evaluation and International Speech Contests, competing at various levels—from club contests to Area, Division, and District levels. Winners of the District-level International Speech Contest advance to the quarterfinals, followed by the semifinals, with the ultimate goal of competing in the prestigious World Championship of Public Speaking. What’s in it for you? This event is perfect if you’re looking to boost your public speaking, gain confidence, or just meet like-minded individuals—our supportive and welcoming environment is here to help you grow. Come and witness some of the best speakers in our club as they compete in the Toastmasters Speech Contest, showcasing their skills in evaluation and inspirational speaking.

**Welcome to the Human Design Tallinn Meetup ✨** Join the Intro Meeting to explore what Human Design is, discover its core elements, and understand how they translate into your chart. We’ll dive into the Types and look at practical tools for everyday life: tips on how to master your energy, refine your guidance, expand your influence depending on your Type, and align through your decision-making. This will be explored through examples - your charts. Human Design is not a belief system. It’s a hyper-detailed system to experiment with — a practical framework to see how it works for you. Curious? Come explore and experience it for yourself.

To all locals, expats, and visitors in Tallinn, welcome! My wife and I are delighted to invite you to study the Word of God with us every Friday at 5:30 p.m. in a casual setting, accompanied by coffee and tea. We believe the Bible is entirely true, and we strive to live by its teachings. We also believe that the love of God is so powerful that it can touch hearts and heal what's broken in all of us. Let's study Christianity together to help you find answers to questions like: * What is the meaning of life? * How do I deal with difficult situations? * Who is God, and what is the Trinity? * How can Jesus Christ help me? * How can I forgive and treat others with love? Please join us or reach out if you have any questions! The meetups are in English.

**Confidence in Bloom: How Creativity Builds Confidence** What happens when creativity becomes an intentional practice? In this month’s Confidence Lab, we’ll gather at **Petals That Inspire: The Flourish Studio** for an evening exploring the connection between creativity and confidence. How making with our hands, engaging our senses, and allowing space for expression can shift how we see ourselves and what we believe is possible. Our featured speaker, **Amanda Lorenzetti**, owner of Petals That Inspire, will share how creativity has shaped her own confidence journey and why creative environments play such a powerful role in well-being, resilience, and personal growth. Drawing from her work leading an experience-driven floral studio and a community-centered workforce development program, Amanda will reflect on creativity as both a personal and collective catalyst. Amanda will also guide us through a **hands-on floral design experience**, creating a fresh arrangement in a wide mouth mason jar. No prior floral experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to engage the process. This evening is an invitation to slow down, create, and reconnect with the part of yourself that grows through care, attention, and imagination. You’ll leave with a floral arrangement to take home, and a deeper understanding of how confidence can be cultivated through creative practices. **Featured Speaker: Amanda Lorenzetti** Amanda Lorenzetti is the owner and founder of [Petals That Inspire](https://www.petalsthatinspire.com/) and The Flourish Studio, a social enterprise florist based in Columbus, Ohio. She brings more than a decade of experience in wedding and event sales, paired with hands-on expertise in floral and event design. Amanda’s connection to the floral industry began early, spending time alongside her godmother, a professional florist on the East Coast. After earning her business degree, she returned to her hometown in Connecticut to work as a floral and event designer, blending creative artistry with strong operational and client-focused skills. In 2020, Amanda returned to the floral industry with a renewed purpose, driven by a desire to build a business rooted in creativity, community impact, and sustainability. During this pivotal time, she founded Petals That Inspire—an innovative floral concept that reimagines the traditional florist model by combining event florals, workshops, and experiential offerings with a mission-centered approach to workforce development. Today, Petals That Inspire is a thriving social enterprise known for its thoughtful design, educational experiences, and commitment to empowering young adults facing barriers to entry in the workforce. Amanda is deeply passionate about building businesses that are both profitable and purpose-driven, and she leverages her strong business acumen to create a scalable & sustainable model that inspires creativity while giving back to the community. **What is Confidence Lab?** Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. 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! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*
