Business Re-Alignment Workshop: Practical Clarity & Focus for Solopreneurs
🚀Not another webinar—this is a working session to reset your business direction in real time.
💡In uncertain times, most business owners don’t lack strategy—they lack alignment. This interactive workshop is designed for solopreneurs and small business owners who want to re-align themselves and their business for clarity, focus, and results.
🔥Hosted by Adrian Cahill, this is a practical, hands-on session where participants will work through a structured business coaching framework designed to uncover what’s really driving (or blocking) their progress. Rather than just learning concepts, you’ll actively apply them to your own business in real time.
You’ll explore key areas such as purpose, identity, values, behaviours, and environment—while gaining a clearer understanding of how to operate not just as a business owner, but with an investor mindset.
📅Join us on Sunday, **May 24, 2026**, for “**Business Re-Alignment Workshop: Practical Clarity & Focus for Solopreneurs in Uncertain Times**” with **Adrian Cahill**, and take part in a hands-on session designed to realign you and your business for stronger results.

✔ Re-align your business using a proven coaching framework
✔ Gain clarity across purpose, identity, values, and actions
✔ Identify what’s actually driving or blocking your results
✔ Shift from reactive decision-making to intentional strategy
✔ Understand the difference between business owner vs investor thinking
**🎯Additional Key Points / Benefits**
✔ Work on your business live (not just listen passively)
✔ Walk away with personal insights tailored to your situation
✔ Reduce overwhelm by focusing on what truly matters
✔ Build alignment between life and business decisions
✔ Create clearer priorities and next actions immediately

Free In-Person Event: Handle Self-Confidence & Motivation to Achieve Your Goals
This is an in-person meeting.
Would you like to know the Real You, not just a shadow of yourself? Does your life energy feel somehow trapped within? Does your self-confidence get easily shaken? Do you get in the way of your own goals? We will discuss the real source of all this, what holds you back in life, and how to handle it so you can achieve more successful and happier living.
Perhaps you get weighed down with negative emotions you can't seem to shrug off. Or find yourself doing strange and irrational things - not really being yourself. We will cover why that is and tools that work to help you unearth your self, your self-confidence and motivation.
This meeting will help you learn about how to effectively overcome:
-Out-of-control unwanted emotions
-Low self-esteem
-Anxiety
-Negativity
-Stress
-Irrational fears
-Traumatic or painfully emotional incidents
-Breakups
-Betrayals
-Feeling like you're not really yourself
-Self-doubt...
We will discuss how to unleash the inner you and tap into your true potential. So come to this online meetup!

Drunken Philosophy: What’s up with all the AI hate?
**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion
**Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?**
A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad.
My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one.
Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it?
I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction.
Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends.
No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
