ConsciousCafe London Dinner
ConsciousCafe invites you to join our next London Dinner which will be held in Central London. You will have the opportunity to meet likeminded conscious people and chat over a meal in a relaxed atmosphere.
Many beautiful friendships and connections have been created at our London lunches and dinners. We love it when we see people exchanging their contact details as they leave. There is always a special bond when you enjoy deep conversations together. We choose restaurants which are good value for money with a selection of dishes to suit all dietary requirements. You will receive your own bill at the end of the meal and will only pay for what you have ordered. We reckon a budget of £20 - £35 should cover your meal.
We know we are getting it right when people ask us at the end of the lunch – or dinner – ‘when is the next one?’ So far this has happened every time.
If you would like to come to our May Lunch please send a non-refundable deposit of £5 per person to book your place. This covers our administration costs for the event. If places are sold out please email Judy@consciouscafe.org to go on the waiting list as sometimes guests cancel at the last moment.
Places are limited so please book as soon as you can to reserve your seat at the table. During the meal you will have the chance to move around and meet different people. If you want to invite a conscious friend to come with you of course that’s fine but this is a spiritual networking event so be prepared to connect with other people and not just talk to the person you have come with. If you do make a booking for two tickets please let us know the name and contact details of your friend.

In-person meetup: Lessons from Shifting PM → Founder
**Please note this is an offline event with limited space. RSVP only if you will be able to attend in person. If you want to watch the live streaming, please RSVP to our [Online Event](https://www.meetup.com/producttank-london/events/314766823).**
**\-\-\-\-\-\-\-**
Product Managers are uniquely positioned to become founders. Years spent living in customer problems, making prioritisation calls under uncertainty, and shipping products across competing constraints is excellent preparation for building a company from scratch. The question remains which skills to activate first and which to actively develop before making the leap.
This event convenes a panel of Product Managers who have successfully made the transition into founding — and are building companies today. Drawing on first-hand experience, they will cover what most founder talks omit: the PM skills that translate into a genuine competitive advantage, the capability gaps that require deliberate development, and a grounded, month-by-month account of what the first year of building demands. The result is a practical, unvarnished briefing designed to help you make an informed decision about the leap — and, should you choose to make it, to make it well-prepared.

[Emma Burrows](https://www.linkedin.com/in/emma-burrows/) \- Founder @ Rezonant\, Ex\-CTO @ Stripe UK

Systemic & Family Constellations IN-PERSON Full-Day Workshop with Illi Adato
**You are invited to join a deep healing group process that extends beyond us as individuals into the wider 'field' of historical/ancestral influences, where our family's past traumas are seen, acknowledged, and attended to, so that they do not limit our well-being today.**
In these **short videos, our facilitator Illi Adato** explains the key aspects of the Systemic and Family Constellation approach to therapy and healing:
[https://www.facebook.com/LondonFamilyConstellations/videos](https://www.facebook.com/LondonFamilyConstellations/videos)
We shall meet at The Kailash Centre in St. Johns Wood, London NW8 for this month's group session, **open to all**.
Issue Holder and Representative spaces are available:
**For Representative (Participant) Booking £45:**
**[https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative](https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative)**[ ](https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative)
**For Issue Holder (Client) Booking £175:**
If you wish to attend as an Issue Holder at this workshop and have your own Constellation done please email your request to: [ih@londonconstellations.uk](ih@londonconstellations.uk)
**Please Note:** There are limited issue holder spaces available, please book early to avoid disappointment and wait for a confirmation email of your booking.
This workshop provides a perfect opportunity to experience the deep and insightful Systemic Constellations process. A unique and powerful therapeutic method for self-exploration, understanding core behaviors, removing blocks, and reintroducing movement and growth. It is used as a major resource in working through trauma and it can assist in depression treatment.
To read comments from participants in previous workshops click this link [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs)
**WHAT ARE SYSTEMIC CONSTELLATIONS?**
The Systemic Constellations method is a unique therapeutic process of exploration of the forces that move us in life. Such forces often appear as difficulties or a sense of being 'stuck' in life, affecting our behavior, relationships, career, health/wellbeing, or even financial circumstances. This method provides a three-dimensional ‘map’ of one’s life as it is at present. It is a simple yet powerful way to explore entanglements and blockages in our personal life and in our family history. The method brings awareness and clarity into personal challenges by focusing the client on the root cause of such difficulties. Constellations provide an opening for a positive life shift and present ways for deep healing processes to occur.
**WHAT HAPPENS IN A CONSTELLATION SESSION?**
In Constellations work the ‘client’ is referred to as the ‘Issue Holder’.
The method uses workshop participants as ‘Representatives’ to stand in for key people in the client’s life such as family members, colleagues, partners, ex-partners etc., sometimes ‘abstract’ concepts such as an emotion, country of origin, religion, or destiny are also represented. All participants are invited to take part as Representatives. Workshop participants often report (see reviews: [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs)) experiencing profound insights into their own lives by simply witnessing the process, regardless of how they choose to take part.
**WHY DOES THIS WORK?**
Scientific research shows that the experiences of your ancestors can determine your behavior today and affect future generations.\*\* Recent scientific research into DNA reveals that a component named epigenetics is embedding the effect of a traumatic experience by altering the genetic structure. It means that some of our behavior patterns can be attributed to traumatic events in your family history. This notion has always been one of the guiding principles of Systemic / Constellations Therapy, a form of work that is dedicated to exposing and dealing with issues emerging from our family system.
Our group provides a **safe space** where deep personal work is done and where maintaining confidentiality and respect for each other's privacy is paramount.

#WPLDN - May 2026: Block Editor Migration & WordPress Security
Join us for another evening at #WPLDN, where we're tackling two of the more practical conversations happening in WordPress right now. First up, the migration question: how do you move thousands of legacy ACF Flexible Content posts into the block editor without losing your weekend? Then we're shifting gears to security, with a live interview exploring how AI is reshaping both sides of the WordPress security landscape.
📅 **Date:** Thursday, 28 May 2026
⏰ **Time:** 6:00 PM BST
🎟️ **Cost:** Free (Registration Required)
\-\-\-
**Session 1: How We Automated Migrating Thousands Of Blog Posts From ACF Flexible Content To The Block Editor**
🤝 **Speaker:** Cameron Jones ([cameronjonesweb.com.au](https://cameronjonesweb.com.au))
Before the block editor arrived, ACF's Flexible Content field was the go-to for giving clients control over custom layouts. The block editor now offers a far more powerful experience, but that leaves a familiar problem: how do you migrate thousands of existing posts without manual rebuilds? Cameron will walk through how his team automated the entire process with just a few lines of code.
Cameron Jones is the owner and lead developer of Shortie Designs, a web design agency based in the little beach town of Victor Harbor. With over a decade of experience building websites at various local and international agencies, he acquired Shortie Designs in 2024 to take the leap from developer to business owner.
With a particular speciality in plugin development, Cameron is also the founder of Mongoose Marketplace, where his free and premium plugins have been downloaded over 400,000 times. He also works with the free donation platform Ko-fi to maintain their official WordPress plugin and authored the popular “WordPress Plugin Development For Beginners” course, which has been taken by almost 1,000 students.
\-\-\-
**Session 2: A Conversation with Robert Abela & Tim Nash: WordPress Security, AI & the Human Factor**
🤝 **Speakers:** Robert Abela ([Melapress](https://melapress.com)) and Tim Nash ([WP Security 101](https://wpsecurity101.com))
What are the biggest security challenges facing WordPress today, and how is AI changing the landscape for both attackers and defenders? Robert and Tim join us for a live interview and audience discussion covering modern WordPress security, user account protection, and why user awareness and visibility are becoming critical to keeping sites safe.
Robert Abela is the founder and CEO of Melapress, where he and his team build WordPress plugins that help people manage and keep their websites and users secure.
Tim is a WordPress Security consultant and professional doomspeaker. He teaches WordPress Security through his [wpsecurity101.com](https://wpsecurity101.com) course and provides consultancy services via Tempered Ltd.
\-\-\-
**Schedule:**
🔹 **6:00 PM** – Doors Open & Networking
🔹 **6:30 PM** – Welcome & Session 1: Cameron Jones
🔹 **7:30 PM** – Short Break & Networking
🔹 **7:45 PM** – Session 2: Robert Abela & Tim Nash
🔹 **8:30 PM** – Social & Wrap-Up
\-\-\-
**📢 RSVP Now!**
Whether you're knee-deep in legacy content migrations or thinking through your security posture, there's plenty here to chew on. Bring your questions, bring your scepticism, and we'll see you at #WPLDN!
\-\-\-
**Venue Information**
**The Bridge** is a charity supporting women to make positive choices and encouraging improvements to fitness, health, and wellbeing. The venue features a plant-based café (supplied by Girls Who Grind Coffee) and is just a 5-minute walk from London Bridge Station.

AWS London Well-Architected User Group May Meetup!
Hi Architects,
Welcome to our the Fourth AWS London Well-Architected User Group Meetup!!! 🥳🥳🥳
Dragon Hall Trust, 17 Stukeley Street, London WC2B 5LT
The AWS London Well-Architected Meetup is the latest chapter in the most popular AWS Meetup group globally.
At each meetup we cover off various pillars of AWS best-practice in detail including insights from industry leaders that specialise in the Well-Architected Framework.
We’ll be updating throughout the month with more speakers and our speakers so far this month include:
* **Breached at 3am: How AI is Redefining Security on AWS** \| Oluwasile Adesanya \[Solutions Architect\] from Cadware Limited
An overview of how the Well‑Architected Framework is evolving with AI-driven tooling, focusing on how solutions like Kiro transform detection and automated remediation of threats, practical benefits for teams, and recommended implementation patterns and pitfalls to avoid.
* **AI-Assisted AWS Well-Architected Assessments with AWS Security Agent** \| Mahendran Selvakumar \[Senior Cloud & DevSecOps Engineer\] from Tata Consultancy Services
This talk explores how AWS's new Security Agent can transform the traditionally time-consuming AWS Well-Architected Framework Review (WAFR) process by leveraging AI to automate and accelerate security assessments.
So come join us at 6.30pm for a 7.00pm start, including drinks, snacks and friendly networking after our talks :-)
Everyone's talking about graphs now: What does Azure have to offer?
**Everyone's talking about graphs now: What does Azure have to offer?**
Microsoft Fabric now has a built-in graph database. So do you still need Neo4j?
In this session we put Fabric Graph and Neo4j Aura head to head. Not as a marketing exercise, but as a practical decision guide. We’ll cover where Fabric Graph earns its place as a zero-friction, OneLake-native option for connected data, and where Neo4j Aura pulls ahead on query maturity, algorithm depth, and production readiness. We’ll run the same problem through both platforms live, so you can see the real differences rather than just read a feature table.
You’ll leave with a clear decision framework: when to use what’s already in your Fabric capacity, when to bring in the specialist, and why the answer is sometimes both.
**About the Speaker**
Sandy is a Principal Innovation Consultant at Acora (a title all the cool kids aspire to) and Databricks Champion. He’s passionate about technology and finding the best tool for the job. Having recently worked on a project building out a knowledge graph, he’s got the experience with Neo4j to really show the differences between where it wins and where fabric wins.

Speakers
===
**Sang Young Noh**
**Talk title:** FerrumMD: Building a Molecular Dynamics Engine in Rust
**Abstract:** FerrumMD is a molecular dynamics engine written in Rust, built to explore high-performance scientific computing from first principles. The project implements core simulation components, including Lennard-Jones interactions, periodic boundary conditions, Verlet integration, velocity rescaling, and electrostatics via Particle Mesh Ewald. It aims to bridge computational chemistry, systems programming, and extensible design for future free-energy workflows.
**JC Campagne**
**Talk Title:** DAGraph: Local reactive graph-based data analytics in Rust.
**Abstract:** DAGraph is a reactive node-based canvas app for local data analytics — every cell is a node in a reactive DAG, from basic arithmetic to OLAP-style SQL. Built in Rust, it runs natively or fully in-browser via WASM, with no server and no data leaving your machine.
**Darek Luksza**
**Talk Title:** Building a streaming technical-analysis crate in Rust
**Abstract:** Darek will share lessons from building quantedge-ta, an open-source Rust crate for technical analysis indicators designed for streaming market data rather than batch-only calculation. The talk will cover practical problems around warmup periods, convergence, forming versus closed bars, and stateful updates, plus where Rust helped and where the ergonomics became tricky.

Take Control Of Your Life, Freedom From Negative Thoughts & Irrational Emotions
Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences.
Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future.
What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs.
At this free local Meetup event we will talk about:
* What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic.
* Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences?
* How to break away from negativity and focus on the future
* What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions?
Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home.
Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences.

**Abstract**
Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod.

Want to Truly Heal from Emotional Trauma?
Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few.
How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again.
So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that.
