We are writers of all levels – beginners to published. And we meet at STARBUCK at IFC (P2 Shop2097-2098, International Finance Centre), Central for fun writing and sharing sessions! We all write a one-sentence prompt, then each select one at random. We write something based on the prompt for 45 minutes, after which, we share our work with each other and discuss as desired. Of course, sharing is optional but encouraged. (Feedback is always polite and respectful.) Alternatively, you can bring your own project(s) to work on in the company of fellow writers (published and yet-to-be published). You can share your project(s), too, if you want. It's all about creativity and productivity in a supportive environment! Any questions, just reach out to our organizers through Meetup.

2026年上半年是一個劇烈的轉折期，全球貿易正由全球化逐步轉向區域化。受中美戰略競爭、中歐及中東的危機的影響，供應鏈邏輯迎來根本性逆轉－企業從追求極致效率的「及時生產」（Just in Time）轉向以安全韌性為核心的「預防萬一」（Just in Case）的儲備策略。 無論是「中國+1」還是「近岸外包」等調整，都並非簡單遷移廠房。生產線一旦跨越國境，企業成本結構隨之改變。企業隨即面臨「全球最低稅」對利潤的重新切割、轉讓定價面臨的合規性，以及原產地規則帶來的關稅衝擊。廠商會特邀請畢馬威的稅務專家通過實務案例，拆解其中的互動邏輯，並分享在多變環境下，企業如何透過前瞻性佈局守住合規底線，進而實現永續經營。 立即報名：[連結](https://www.cma.org.hk/tc/registration/622)

*"There is a voice that doesn’t use words. Listen." — Rumi* **What is one small, everyday decision you make purely based on a 'gut feeling' rather than logic?** From a young age, we are introduced to the fast-paced rhythm of modern life. We are taught to focus on efficiency, productivity, and meeting the non-stop demands of a highly driven, always-on culture. Often, we navigate these well-trodden paths—juggling the constant demands of our careers and the expectations of those around us—until we realize we might feel a bit disconnected from our personal center. Finding our internal compass is about pausing to check our alignment. It takes quiet courage to establish healthy boundaries, manage our energy, and gently prioritize personal well-being amidst daily busyness. However, in a culture that rightly values logic and hard work, or when we are simply prone to over-thinking, tuning into that compass can be tricky. It can be difficult to tell the difference between a genuine gut feeling and simple anxiety, or to know if we are protecting our peace versus just avoiding vulnerability. Join us at this Curious Souls Cafe gathering to explore the gentle journey of self-discovery and calibration. We will discuss how to find our own pace within a high-speed world, how to distinguish true intuition from everyday stress, and how we can build lives that feel deeply authentic while still honoring our responsibilities. Bring your stories, a reflective spirit, and an open mind. Let's discover the groundedness and clarity that comes when we navigate life with a well-calibrated compass. **Inviting those who...** 🧭 Wish to gently explore how to align their daily habits and career goals with their core personal values. 🧠 Sometimes struggle with over-thinking, and want to practice telling the difference between a genuine gut feeling and everyday stress. ⚖️ Want a warm space to discuss the delicate balance between being a reliable, responsible person and protecting their own personal time. 🌱 Seek to balance the rigorous demands of a hyper-connected world with the quiet, restorative practices that bring them genuine joy. 🗣️ Hope to connect with kindred spirits who are also learning to manage the noise of modern life while staying grounded and true to themselves. **📅 Agenda / What You'll Experience** 💬 Prompted Conversations We will use virtual question cards designed to help people thoughtfully explore the foundations of their personal values. Here are some sample questions: * What is a common productivity standard or hustle-culture habit that you’ve gently decided to soften to better protect your peace? * When you find yourself over-thinking or trying to 'calculate' the perfect decision, how do you get back in touch with your gut feeling? * What is the difference between your compass pointing away from something because it's a genuine threat to your peace, versus pointing away simply because you are afraid or anxious? * What is a personal habit or standard you hold yourself to (like always saying 'yes' or needing to be busy) that you've recently tried to soften or change? * Have you ever caught yourself doing an activity just because it felt 'productive,' when what you really needed was to do something simply for the joy of it? 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.

Each session opens with a Soulbits oracle image setting the tone for the gathering we will move through. We will come together to honor the natural rhythms of rooting, rising, releasing, and receiving; the cycles that shape the soul’s journey. Through the four pillars of being: mindset, movement, connection & nourishment, we will create a space where imagery, sensation, and community weave together. Where the body becomes the guide, images act as mirrors, and the soul speaks. This circle is about noticing what rises, honoring what’s true, and reconnecting with the parts of yourself ready to be seen. This is a space to gather your scattered pieces, soften your body, and return to your truth with community by your side. Soulbits Circle is a reminder that every fragment of your story, every soulbit, belongs. Together we weave them into the blooming wholeness that you are. *Energy Exchange: 1-group $20-40 or 6-group $115* *Payment Options: Venmo or Cash* **Please RSVP to [Caitlynn](https://kalikwellnesswithin.org/) via** **email @ [kalik.wellnesswithin@gmail.com](mailto:kalik.wellnesswithin@gmail.com)** **text @ ‪(614) 407-4021‬** 💫
