*"You are under no obligation to be the same person you were five minutes ago." — Alan Watts* **What is one phase, hobby, or label you used to fit into, but have happily outgrown?** During a busy daily routine, it is easy to feel swept up in the current. The world around us naturally uses labels to help organize everyday life, and it can be genuinely comforting to find our "group" or define exactly who we are. But human beings are wonderfully complex, contradictory, and constantly evolving. This Curious Souls Cafe gathering is an invitation to explore the beauty of fluidity. We are turning our focus inward to discover a quiet sense of spaciousness within ourselves. We will discuss the quiet art of wearing a label to function in our daily lives, without letting it define our core identity. Let's share how we navigate changing our minds, outgrowing old versions of ourselves, and allowing ourselves to be a gentle "work in progress." Bring your thoughts and an open mind. Let's discover the joy of living without boxes, together. **Inviting all who are...** 🌊 Reflecting on how everyday life naturally uses categories, and seeking a quiet space to just "be" 🧠 Eager to cultivate a cozy internal space for evolving, growing, and changing their minds ⚖️ Navigating how to stay engaged in our communities while holding our personal identities lightly 📵 Interested in stepping back from digital echo chambers to savor authentic, unstructured human connection 🤝 Believing that we grow best in community, sharing insights and inspiration ​📅 Agenda / What You'll Experience ​💬 Prompted Conversations We will use virtual question cards designed to help people playfully explore their personal habits and internal operating systems. Here are some sample questions: * Have you ever naturally outgrown a phase, hobby, or label that used to feel like a perfect fit, and what did that shift feel like? * What is an everyday interest, taste, or opinion you used to have that has gently shifted over time? * How can we use labels as helpful tools to navigate our daily routines, without secretly letting them trap or define us? * If you didn't have to define your identity to anyone, what beautifully messy, contradictory mix of hobbies or traits would you embrace? From there, we’ll embark on a respectful, engaging, and meaningful conversation, celebrating the diversity of perspectives and ideas within the group. Note: This session may involve virtual question cards accessed via a link or QR code. If you do not have a device (phone/tablet) to access these, please ask a facilitator for assistance; we have spare units available. The exact format of the event may change depending on turnout according to [https://curioussouls.cafe/#how-to](https://curioussouls.cafe/#how-to) and other factors. 💬 Final Thoughts and Feedback Where time allows, in the final 10 minutes of the event, we’ll take a moment to reflect on the key insights, memorable moments, and takeaways from our discussions. This is a chance to distill the shared wisdom and leave with a deeper understanding of the topics we’ve explored together. After the event officially concludes, the group may choose to extend the session, depending on the group’s interest. Of course, you’re welcome to leave at any time that feels right for you. An anonymized summary will be shared for sessions where key insights are identified. After the meeting, our facilitators and participants may reflect on the discussion and contribute to a summary or collaborative workbook based on their notes and observations. Additionally, questions may be revisited in future sessions in an anonymized manner.

From birth, human beings are learning. Before we are able to hold concrete memories, we are being shaped and impacted by everything about our lives and situations. From the point that we become capable of cognizant thought and memory, our lives could be summed up as a series of our responses to our circumstances, whether for good or for ill. Dr. Joe Dispenza sees a deep need for human beings to live *on purpose*. Rather than just living life in reaction mode, he challenges people to live intentionally, to seek to change the negative that we have encountered and to pursue the positive through purposeful steps in a different and healthy direction. His study and work seek to demonstrate the changes that can be made from the inside out. Join us as we take a look at new ways to grow at **6:30 pm,** **Tuesday, May 5, 2026, at True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center, Columbus**.
