Sunday Tech Coffee Meetup
Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a **networking** event for those in the tech industry in Berlin.
We are usually inside and to the right
Conscious Concert - Seminar-Konzert für weniger Stress und mehr Genuss im Alltag
**Conscious Concert – ein Abend, der nachklingt.**
**Musik. Begegnung. Achtsamkeit.**
Das *Conscious Concert* ist kein gewöhnliches Konzert – es ist ein Erlebnisabend für Herz und Seele. Eine ganz besondere Mischung aus Seminar/Workshop und Konzert, die Dich unterstützt auch langfristig mehr bei Dir anzukommen. Und eine Einladung, innezuhalten, durchzuatmen und Dich selbst wieder ein Stück näher kennenzulernen.
🎶 **Musik mit Herz, Tiefe und Zauber:**
Du wirst nicht nur zuhören, sondern mitfühlen, mitsummen, mitwachsen. Die Songs sind musikalisch so vielseitig wie das Leben selbst – mal mit einem Hauch Disney-Magie, mal mitreißend wie ein Rocksong, mal verspielt, ganz ruhig oder voller Leichtigkeit und Freude. Viele laden zum Mitsingen ein, andere berühren still und tief.
💫 **Eine moderne Held/innenreise bildet den roten Faden des Abends** – sie führt Dich leicht, lebendig und berührend durch innere und äußere Landschaften. Die Musik öffnet Türen, die Worte schenken Orientierung, die Atmosphäre gibt Raum für Begegnung – mit Dir und anderen.
🧭 **Wer begleitet Dich durch den Abend?**
Hi, ich bin Stefan – studierter Maschinenbauer, dann Digitalisierungsberater, heute *Wegbegleiter für Herz, Kopf und Seele*.
Als Kind gehörloser Eltern habe ich früh gelernt, genau hinzuhören – auf das, was zwischen den Zeilen schwingt. Seit vielen Jahren bin ich auf intensiver Reise zu mehr Tiefe, Achtsamkeit und echter Verbindung. Mit Musik, Inspiration und einem offenen Herzen lade ich Dich ein: Lass uns gemeinsam wachsen – für eine Welt, die innen wie außen ein kleines Stück schöner wird.
✨ **Was Dich noch erwartet:**
Zwischen den Liedern erwarten Dich kleine Übungen, überraschende Perspektiven und Momente echter Verbindung – mit Humor, Tiefe und liebevoller Leichtigkeit. Alles kann, nichts muss.
📖 Und: Du bekommst vor Ort einen liebevoll gestalteten **Conscious Concert Companion** – ein kleines Booklet, das Dich durch den Abend begleitet und Dir danach immer wieder eine Inspiration sein soll. Was genau drin steckt? Lass Dich überraschen!
🤝 **Für wen ist das Conscious Concert gedacht?**
Für alle, die Lust auf neue Perspektiven, bewusste Selbstwahrnehmung und einen Abend mit echter Bedeutung haben. Du brauchst kein Vorwissen – nur ein offenes Herz.
🌱 **Was bleibt:**
Ein gestärktes Gefühl für Dich selbst.
Neue Impulse, die in Dir nachwirken.
Und ein Abend, der noch lange in Dir klingt.
Bring gern Deine Herzensmenschen mit – oder mach ein Date mit Dir selbst draus.
🎫**Sichere Dir jetzt Deine Teilnahme und tu‘ Dir etwas Gutes.**
Bitte sage bis Sonntag um 12:00 Uhr mittags zu (oder auch wieder ab).
Zahle am Ende so viel wie du möchtest / wie es dir wert war - als Orientierung: etwa 15 bis 25 € sind ein fairer Preis.
Reading Party ☕️📚
\*\*\*\*\*\*
***For address and more details see the website.***
\*\*\*\*\*\*
**Event Info:**
Bring along your **current book to read** (or something **creative** to work on 📚🎨🧵) and join us for this mix of a shared focus time + discussion.
\- 11:00\-11:30 \- Meet & greet
\- 11:30\-12:30 \- Silent focus time
\- 12:30 \- Discussion of books/ projects over coffee
**Drinks & snacks are included** ☕️
* **To reserve your place, a ticket (€9,90/event) or a community pass (only €14,90/MONTH) [from the website](www.pausify.org) is required**
* **Attendance here doesn’t show all sign-ups from other platforms.**
***FAQ: Why does it cost money if I bring my own project?***
Because we rent a beautiful, central space for every event. Ever thought your monthly apartment rent was too high? Well, multiply that – that’s what commercial spaces in big cities like Berlin cost *per hour*.
Of course, if all you want is just some quiet time, your home or a library is perfect. But if you’d like to focus & connect with others in an inspiring space – with drinks, snacks included – that’s what your ticket helps to cover.

Gute Freunde & Freundinnen reden über ihre Ziele & Träume. Sie schauen zurück auf das vergangene Jahr und überlegen, wie das nächste werden soll.
Genau das machen wir in diesem Workshop auch.
**☕ In gemütlicher Atmosphäre widmen wir uns 4 Themen:**
🙏🏼 Wie war mein 2025. Was war großartig? Was war lappig?
🌴 Wie stelle ich mir mein Leben vor?
🌻 Wie soll mein 2026 werden?
🚂 Wie möchte ich die Ziele in 2026 umsetzen?
Wir denken nach über das eigene Leben & das nächste Jahr - und sind gleichzeitig immer wieder im Austausch.
**🌳 Gemeinsame Inspiration & Referenz**
Deine Ziele für's nächste Jahr entstehen nicht im stillen Kämmerlein, sondern verbunden mit anderen. Dabei teilst Du, was Du teilen möchtest - was Du lieber für Dich behältst, bleibt Dein Geheimnis.
Am Ende hast Du einen Plan für 2026. Du hast Dich mit anderen darüber ausgetauscht, Dich inspirieren lassen und vielleicht habt ihr ja sogar ähnliche Pläne?
**Der Tag ist auch eine Referenz für:** Wie wäre es, wenn ich mit meinen Freunden gemeinsam einen solchen Tag gestalte? Die Unterlagen dafür hast Du ja im Anschluss und kannst gleich einen Termin mir Deinen Freunden vereinbaren.
Ich freue mich auf jeden Fall auf gute Gesprächen & einen angenehmen Tag.
**📝 Agenda:**
* 8:45 Uhr: Ankommen, Tee & Schwatz
* Kennenlernen & Rückblick 2025
* Lebensvision & Träume
* 12:30 - 14:00 Uhr - Mittagspause
* Deine Ziele für 2026
* Schärfung & Umsetzung
* 18:00 Uhr - Ende
.
**🥗 Essen & Trinken**
In der Mittagspause kannst Du Dich auf eigene Kosten in einem der zahlreichen, umliegenden Restaurants & Imbisse versorgen, sitzen & schwatzen. Bring Dir gern auch Snacks für den Tag und zwischendurch mit.
Ich stelle **verschiedene Tees** **und Kaffee** zur Verfügung.
.
**🏡 Location**
* Wir treffen uns bei mir am Wohnzimmertisch.
* Für das Gefühl von chilliger Gemeinsamkeit ist gesorgt.
.
🚫 **Was ist der Workshop nicht:**
**Der Workshop ist kein Tschakka-Workshop.** Ich glaube, Du kannst (fast) alles erreichen, was Du willst. Doch ich glaube, die meisten Teilnehmenden werden eher solide Themen für 2026 haben.
Dennoch bin ich offen für große Ziele - schließlich arbeite ich selbst an etwas Großem (Das Buch über Freundschaft). Für ein klein wenig Tschakka ist also auch Platz - nur eben keine Techno-Musik & blinkende Lichter.
**👱🏽♂️ Über mich:**
* Betreiber der Seite [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de)
* Ausgebildeter NLP-Trainer ([DVNLP](https://www.dvnlp.de/)) & Coach
* Seit 15 Jahren setze ich mir selbst Ziele mit Freunden.
* Jahrelang selbstständiger Unternehmensberater (u.a. über 5 Jahre Strategieberater für die Bundsbereitschaftsleitung des Deutschen Roten Kreuzes)
* Eigene Vita: Von schüchternen Jungen zum fitten Mann
* u.a. Weltreise: 1 Jahr allein eine Runde um den Globus. Das war fett!
* Mehr über mich: [LinkedIn - Georg Preller](https://www.linkedin.com/in/georg-preller/)
**😲 Ehemalige Teilnehmer/innen meiner Meeups:**
"Was Georg kann: Tiefgang & Spaß zu gleichen Zeit. Ich bin immer wieder gern dabei!"
.
"Während des Workshops habe ich erkannt: In der Firma setzen wir uns jedes Jahr Ziele und reden mindestens ein Mal in der Woche darüber - nennt sich Meetings oder Jour Fixe bei uns. In meinem Privatleben lasse ich das schleifen und wundere mich, warum vieles nicht zu meiner Zufriedenheit läuft. Jetzt habe ich meine Ziele für 2024! Danke."
.
"Ziele alleine setzen ist ja nett, doch angenehmer finde ich den Austausch mit anderen. Ich mache mir das jetzt zur Gewohnheit. Interessant fand ich, welche Themen die anderen hatten. Wir sind doch alle gleich und doch verschiedenen."
.
"Georg bietet ein solides System, wie man sich seine Ziele setzt. Alles bedacht, und auswählen kann ich alleine. Man merkt, dass er eine gute Ausbildung hat. Gut finde ich, dass wir sowohl das gesamte Leben angesehen haben als auch das nächste Jahr."
.
"Sympatisch, übersichtlich, direkt. Dankeschön!"

Sunday Silent Reading at the Bode Museum
Silent Book Club is a group of book lovers who enjoy reading together in public. All books and all readers are welcome.

This page-turning party will unfold in the Café (1st floor) at the Bode Museum.
There's no entrance fee, but please order at least one item from the cafe and don't bring any outside drinks :)

Productive Sunday Morning - Co-Working Session (Deep Work, all work welcome)
Hey everyone!
I’m organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. 🙂
To ensure that we have both **socialising** AND **working**, we will be using the so called “Pomodoro” technique:
**50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat! If you get into flow, you're also welcome to skip the breaks.
It’s an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique).
Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background.
I (the host) speak English and German, so either is fine :-)
——————————————————-
AGENDA:
* **15min Intro**
* Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today
* **Pomodoro Session** (3x) - *Each Pomodoro session consists* *of...*
* ...**50min** of uninterrupted “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, no phones)
* ...**10min** of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc.
* Repeat
* Conclude and celebrate your progress
Share your progress, socialise and get to know others 😊
————
We'll be at the Social Hub Berlin (they have a food menu in case you get hungry). The structured part will end at 2:30pm, but you're welcome to stay longer, go for lunch together, or leave earlier. See you there 🩵
**\*\*We'll reserve the long table. Please update your RSVP in advance if you can't attend!\*\***

Screenwriting Focus Group | Filmmakers & Movie Nerds
**🎬 Screenwriters' Meetup Invitation 🎬**
This meetup is for anyone passionate about storytelling—whether you’re a screenwriter, filmmaker, producer, or someone with a great idea looking for the right collaborators. Whether you’re just starting out or deep into your screenplay, this is the perfect space to create, collaborate, and refine your work.
**When You Bring Your Screenplay, Think About Three Key Ingredients:**
1. **Your Main Character** – Who are they? What drives them?
2. **The Central Conflict** – What’s at stake? What’s standing in their way?
3. **The Theme** – What’s the deeper idea that motivates you to tell this story?
If you’re struggling to find a theme, define your character, or establish a strong conflict—don’t worry. That’s exactly what this meetup is for. We’re here to help you uncover the core of your story and give you the tools to develop it further.
Already have an elaborate story? Great! Reflect on these elements:
* **Compelling Characters** – Are they layered, dynamic, and memorable?
* **Inner Conflicts, Interpersonal Tensions, and Global Stakes** – Does your story operate on multiple levels?
* **A Strong, Personal Theme** – Does your theme resonate with you and give your story purpose?
If you can identify these elements, we can dive even deeper and give you focused, constructive feedback to help your screenplay reach its full potential.
Bring your ideas, your drafts, and your passion. Let’s collaborate, challenge each other, and create stories that matter. We can’t wait to see you there!

**Then you should join us!**
We meet every Sunday. It’s important to us that we get to know each other in person. To create a community of connected people, work, learn and grow together. For film making you need a crew of reliable people with a positive can-do-attitude. This is the place to find them.
Together, we will talk about these topics:
* What you are currently working on
* What you need help with
* What would you like to help with
* What you you would like to learn
This is event is great for:
* filmmakers
* movie nerds
* writers
* camera operators
* editors
* actors
* sound recorders
* composers
* gaffers
* producers
We are limiting the amount of people, so we can have a structured introduction and discussion. After that we get together loosely with some drinks and chats. And then we mostly go for dinner with a couple of us.
**Important information**:
*To sustain and grow this amazing community, we started a member contribution that is due every month. The money we collect is used solely for the purpose of the community. Of course you can come once or twice without contributing to check us out!*

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Doing KPIs Right
**Doing KPIs Right: a KEY to Analytics (and AI!) Impact!**
On the one hand, KPIs are such a Business 101 concept that it may seem a little silly to dedicate an entire session to the topic. On the other hand, KPIs get handled so poorly so often that a case could be made that this meetup could just be one of the most impactful sessions of the entire year!
We’re starting off the year at a new location: [COhatch Upper Arlington](https://www.cohatch.com/locations/columbus/upper-arlington/) but with a familiar speaker, Tim Wilson! We’ll be back at Rev1 in February, when the speaker will presumably not be Tim.
Tim will make the case that effectively measuring performance of projects, campaigns, and initiatives (and even meetups!) should be a foundation for any data analytics program. Topics covered will include: the “two magic questions” of performance measurement, how to help business partners distinguish between outcomes and outputs, and effective tactics for collaboratively establishing KPI targets.
He will also stick his neck out by demonstrating some of these techniques in real-time by measuring whether his talk lives up to the promise of this description!
All CBUSDAW events are free thanks to our 2026 Sponsors: Clarivoy, Conductrics, What Box Consulting Group, and Piwik PRO.

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!
This meeting is sponsored by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio
