A hilarious comedy manifesto on personal growth and change. Too radical for my grandma, too human for Elon Musk. How to start a revolution from home. This stand-up comedy show starts with a series of true stories that led to avoidable (?) disasters. Anna shares about her Greek family, her move to France, and her contact with new cultures and ideas. And ends with a comedy manifesto: We need change, there is hope, let comedians run the world. A very relatable show, current and playfully ironic. In one hour Anna talks about Progress, Normality, and of course Capitalism and the other C-words. The show takes place at a unique co-working space in the heart of Brussels, that transforms to a creative hub once the sun goes down. The vibe is very welcoming and chill, so if you're coming alone, don't worry, you'll feel like you are among friends. A variety of drinks is available in the establishment. Doors open at 8PM, show starts at 8:30PM Tickets at the door 15 EUR (cash only) Ticket link https://fienta.com/firststeptorevolution-brussels-165407

Dear friends, Some time ago, we got in touch because I shared my wish to organise a Chinese vegetarian food gathering, and many of you expressed interest. And now the date and venue are confirmed: Chinese Vegetarian Food Gathering Date & time: Sunday 15/02, 12:00–14:00 [Sign up via Hipsy:](https://hipsy.be/event/181039-lunar-new-year-celebration-chinese-vegetarian-cuisine-tea) **https://hipsy.be/event/181039-lunar-new-year-celebration-chinese-vegetarian-cuisine-tea** After the meal, there will be a tea gathering guided by me, hosted by the Dutch cultural center in our commune, GC Ten Noey. Chinese Tea Gathering with Wenwei Date & time: Sunday 15/02, 14:30–16:30 [Sign up via GC Ten Noey:](https://tickets.vgc.be/activity/subscribe/NOE_LR_2025_Theebijeenkomst_met_Wenwei_Zhang) https://tickets.vgc.be/activity/subscribe/NOE_LR_2025_Theebijeenkomst_met_Wenwei_Zhang This will be a small and intimate gathering to celebrate Chinese New Year, with around 8 participants. Please read the details below — if this resonates with you and you’d like to celebrate together, you’re very welcome to join us. About the food gathering • The meal will be fully vegetarian • I’ll be cooking comfortable food with nostalgic flavours - dishes that feel good for my body after eating • This is not fine dining, and I’m not professionally trained as a cook - Think of it as a tablée experience, where we consciously share food together • I’ll be using mushrooms and soy products, so please keep this in mind if you have allergies Why I do this • As a vegetarian, I often get bored with the very few vegetarian options in restaurants, so I wanted to create an experience I personally would enjoy • I love making people to discover new flavours, this is one of the reasons why i host tea gatherings Drinks included • One comforting Chinese herbal drink that I’ll prepare • One aged fermented pu er tea with aged tangerine peel to finish the meal • Feel free to bring your own drinks if you like, alcohol or non alcohol Menu To be honest, I’m still playing with different ideas, there’s a lot I’d love to try. The menu below is is a reference: * Marinated tomatoes with shiso and salted plum * Sour and spicy crunchy wood ear mushroom * ”salad“Sautéed tofu skin with vegetables (40g protein per 100g in this tofu skin ) - or Hakka style stuffed tofu ? * Sautéed Potatoes with Lao Gan Ma sauce * Greek black rice (or maybe “multigrain rice”) * Daikon, shiitake mushroom and ginger soup * Dessert: Cantonese sweet soup with silver ear mushroom, red dates, lily bulbs, lotus seeds and goji berries. * Both soups are very warming and nourishing , esp. the sweet one, which is almost like a ”beauty soup“ in China. More abou the Guided Chinese tea experience: to sign up: https://www.tennoey.be/fr/activiteiten/rencontre-autour-dun-avec-wenwei-zhang We will start with a short offering ritual using fruits and drinks, to express gratitude to our ancestors and to all the conditions that allow us to gather. Then, we will share a guided tea tasting of carefully selected teas from different mountains in China, appreciated for their strong Cha Qi and grown in harmony with nature and our health. Both gatherings will be guided in the same spirit as my regular tea events, emphasizing beauty, presence, and honest and authentic connections. Silence may be included at times. Whenever possible, I provide Chinese ingredients sourced from organic farms in China, produced by farmers who care for their soil. Fresh ingredients are sourced from my cooperative supermarket BEES Coop, and some from Chinese supermarkets in Brussels. Teas are selected from producers who follow natural rhythms, respect traditional practices, and explore Chinese tea culture in a contemporary context. Yours, Wenwei We receive, we give, we create, and we flourish

We will cover the following topics * Tech as a tool of geopolitical power * Relations with the U.S., China, and Global South * Export controls and tech diplomacy * Balancing openness with strategic protection I am looking forward to discussing with you this critical topic, You will find below links to articles that I suggest as pre-reads for our chat. Reading one article is enough, reading them all is a plus. Also, feel free to suggest what you think might be relevant for the discussion via DM. 1.

We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country. Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply. ### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?** Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment. ## **Why Join?** * **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance. * **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space. * **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection. ## **The Ideal Group Leader** The ideal group leader * Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community. * Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us. * Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind. * An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection. * An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms. * Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus. ## **Our Impact**  Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported: * A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being. * An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging. * Said they would return again. We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself. ### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based** Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission! Every contribution helps us: * **Cover Essential Costs** – Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization. * **Grow Our Mission** – With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year. By choosing to contribute, you’re not just leading an event—you’re helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic. ## **Come Join Us!** We’d love to have you be part of this growing community of people prioritizing their mental health, movement, and connection. 🔹 **Visit Our Website to Learn More:** https://speakyourmind.men/joinusoutside 🔹 **Apply Here to Lead Your Own Group!** – https://form.jotform.com/taketimespeakyourmind/sym-group-leader-application 🔹 **Support the mission**: If you resonate with the mission and want to support, feel free to join a group before applying or donate to help us reach our goals to help more people!
