**People Pleasing, Boundaries & Self-Worth: Healing the Mother Wound Through 9D Breathwork** Healing the Mother Wound Break Generational Patterns & Reclaim Your Worth Many of us carry invisible wounds that began long before we had words for them. Perhaps you struggle to say no without guilt. Perhaps you find yourself constantly putting others first. Perhaps you work hard to earn love, approval, or validation. Or perhaps there is a part of you that still longs to feel truly seen, heard, and accepted. These are often signs of what many call the Mother Wound — inherited emotional patterns passed through generations that can affect our relationships, confidence, boundaries, and sense of self-worth. This journey is not about blaming our mothers. It is about understanding the patterns we inherited, releasing what no longer serves us, and reconnecting with the unconditional love and safety that already exists within us. Through a powerful combination of: ✨ 9D immersive sound technology ✨ Conscious connected breathwork ✨ Guided inner-child healing ✨ Somatic emotional release ✨ Healing frequencies and meditation You will be gently guided into a profound experience of emotional release, self-discovery, and reconnection. This Journey May Help If You: ✓ Struggle with people-pleasing ✓ Feel responsible for everyone else's happiness ✓ Have difficulty setting healthy boundaries ✓ Carry feelings of guilt, shame, or unworthiness ✓ Feel emotionally disconnected from yourself ✓ Want to break generational patterns for yourself and your children ✓ Are ready to release emotional baggage and create a new chapter in your life What You May Experience 🌿 Emotional release 🌿 Greater self-compassion 🌿 Increased clarity and confidence 🌿 A deeper connection with your inner child 🌿 A sense of peace and freedom 🌿 Renewed self-worth and empowerment Certified Conscious Coach & 9D Breathwork Facilitator What To Bring ✔️ Yoga Mat ✔️ Blanket ✔️ Water Bottle ✔️ Comfortable Clothing ✔️ An Open Heart No previous breathwork experience is required.

All levels of coding are welcome! We can continue doing some basic coding using HTML, CSS, and maybe some JS if we are feeling up to it (I'll teach if people are interested). Usually there will be some people around to help anyone with issues. We are also holding these sessions for anyone to come along and ask questions about the course. We know it's a big decision and a lot of money, and we are keen to give you as much information as you need to make the right call. https://liskov.dev We are offering some more structured content for anyone interested: ### CV advice Are you currently applying for jobs?

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!

A session on using Claude Code, Anthropic's AI coding agent, in real Unity development. We'll cover what coding agents are, where Claude Code fits, and how to apply it to an actual game project. The format is presentation-style, with live demos and time for questions throughout. After brief scene-setting on coding agents and what makes Claude Code distinct, we'll go problem-driven: demoing it live on a released Unity game and introducing each feature as a solution to a problem we hit. What to Expect: * An intro to coding agents and where Claude Code fits * A live demo on a real Unity project * Key features as solutions to real problems: 𝖢𝖫𝖠𝖴𝖣𝖤.𝗆𝖽, context management, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP * Unity-specific pain points, including Domain Reload and MCP caveats * Putting it together All experience levels welcome.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
