Wednesday is karaoke day. Every Wednesday we gather to sing. Come with a friend or alone, with or without a voice. The format is simple: show up, grab a microphone, and sing whatever you want. Or don't sing, just support others. As usual, the meeting place is Top Club. If you haven't been before, you can get to know the space at the same time. We're looking forward to seeing you this Wednesday. See you there! Trešdiena ir karaoke diena. Katru trešdienu mēs pulcējamies dziedāt. Nāc ar draugu vai viens, ar balsi vai bez. Formāts ir vienkāršs: nāc, paņem mikrofonu un dziedi, ko vien vēlies. Vai arī nedzied, vienkārši atbalsti citus. Kā parasti, tikšanās vieta ir Top klubs. Ja iepriekš neesi tur bijis, vari vienlaikus iepazīties ar vietu. Gaidīsim ciemos šajā trešdienā. Tiekamies tur!

## Beginner Wife Club is planting its roots in Riga ​A room for women who want to build an epic love affair. **To see the exact location and secure your spot, please register through Luma: https://luma.com/efc6ps0l** ​For a single, dating, engaged, newly married and wise wife. Whether you're preparing for or strengthening a relationship with maturity and reverence. ​This evening is about **owning your joy** through self-care. ​Not the “bubble bath and face mask” kind. ​But the harder work of tending your own heart, taking responsibility for your thoughts, your spirit, your expectations and the atmosphere you carry at home. ​We will be joined by **Eva Mence**, a wise wife of 10 years, a mum of a 7-year-old, her testimony has moved women nationwide over Latvia's radio stations. Through seasons of unhealthy attachment, misplaced identity and expecting her husband to carry what was hers to take care of, Eva learned the freedom of self-responsibility. And ultimately, the pure joy that follows. ​Together, we will explore: * ​What does making a decision to be joyful mean * ​How to love deeply without losing yourself * ​How to honour your partner without making him your source * ​How taking ownership of your own heart can become the beginning of a more joyful life. ​The conversation will be followed by a self-reflection workshop. ​This evening is also your doorway into the private Beginner Wife WhatsApp community - where the conversation continues and the real connection, encouragement and accountability are built beyond the room. ​Come ready. Not just to listen, but to become 🤍 ​**Evening schedule** **18:45-19:15** \- Arrival\, food\, and connection **19:15-20:00** \- Panel conversation **20:00-20:30** - Workshop and guided reflection **20:30-21:00** \- Closing and social time ​Photos will be taken during the event. ​@**[beginnerwife.club](https://beginnerwife.club/?utm_source=luma)**
