It starts here. 👉 Join us: [https://www.consciousconnectionsclub.com/join](https://www.consciousconnectionsclub.com/join) Passcode: 978508 Doors close 3 minutes after we begin — to support safety and full presence. ### What to Expect If you're tired of small talk, dating apps, or social spaces that feel disconnected — you're not alone. In just 30 minutes, you’ll experience how our Connection Games create a different kind of space: grounded, spacious, playful, and real. This is not a drop-in or matchmaking event. It’s a slow, intentional process of meeting people who care about conscious relating, emotional awareness, and nervous system-regulated connection. After completing a Welcome Call, you’ll be invited to join our events in the city you are based or locations you visit regularly (more than 20+ locations worldwide). ### What You’ll Walk Away With Presence & Ease No performance. No pressure. Just being yourself — and meeting others doing the same. Friendships That Matter Many walk away with deep, lasting friendships. Sometimes romance unfolds. That said, the focus is on connection — and growth. Relational Skills That Stay With You Our games and practices support self-awareness, curiosity, and co-regulation — tools you can bring into conversations anywhere: dates, friendships, even family dinners. ### How to Join Everyone starts with a Welcome Call — unless personally invited by one of our members. This helps us create intentional, safe, and aligned spaces. 📍 Join the call: [Click here to join](https://www.consciousconnectionsclub.com/join) Zoom link will be emailed. Can’t find it? Search: connect@consciousconnectionsclub.com ### Upon Completing Your Call, You'll Get: * Access to RSVP for our facilitated singles events * 25% off your first ticket (when eligible) * The chance to meet people in your city who match your values ### This Is For You If: * You’re craving more realness, laughter, and depth * You’re new in town, navigating change, or done with modern dating fatigue * You value personal growth, mindfulness, and authentic connection * You’re curious about yourself and others Some people leave the call thinking: “Where have you all been my whole life?” Others realize it’s not their scene — and that’s perfect too. ### Already Know This Is Your Scene? Or just want to put your name down for your city? 👉 [https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join) (You’ll still need to attend a Welcome Call before joining any event.) *** ### Clarifying Meetup Numbers Numbers shown on Meetup ≠ actual attendees. Everyone you’ll meet has completed a Welcome Call or been invited by one of our members — so the space starts aligned, safe, and meaningful. ### A Quick Note on Privacy Your info stays with us. We never sell or share your data — it’s only used to support your experience and help you connect with aligned people. This isn’t about trying harder. It’s about slowing down, showing up, and letting real connection happen. We’d love to meet you. [Join the Welcome Call.](http://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join)

This Weekend Morning Coffee Meeting - Sunday Edition - will take place at Addies Stories, an Ethiopian Café with traditional Ethiopian coffee. 🗓 **Sunday, 22 February** ⏰ **from 10:30** 👥 **limited to 22 people - registration is obligatory** **This is an extract from the BUZZ from January 2026:** "Ethiopia is the country most often associated with coffee. Arabica grows in the wild, coffee is roasted at home and the coffee ceremony determines the rhythm of social life. The fact that coffee is so deeply anchored gives an extra dimension to the opening of Addis Stories, a place where it is more about real coffee than about fashion trends and trendy specialties." **https://www.bruzz.be/select/resto-bar/bij-addis-stories-draait-alles-om-pure-ethiopische-koffie-en-traditie-2026-01-24** **https://www.addisstories.com/** **Address:** **Addis Stories** **Rue du Vieux Marché 48** **1000 Brussels** This is one of our Sunday editions, which are usually meant to test new places outside our usual coffee locations. These editions are smaller and more experimental, and focus as much on the place and the neighbourhood as on the group itself. ### ### IMPORTANT Please **do not register if you are unsure you can come**. If you register and later realise you can’t make it, **cancel as soon as possible, latest on Saturday afternoon.** There is often a **waiting list**, and it’s only fair to give people on it a real chance to join. Thank you for being fair and respectful. If you’re **on the waiting list**, please **check your status on Saturday evening at the latest**. See you on Sunday ☕

Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to connect, learn, and grow together. Sign up now to reserve your spot! *Fun fact! This meetup was established in 2015 and had over 1,000 members. I had to shut down operations while attending law school, but we're back!!*

Join the Columbus AI community for our quarterly gathering — a casual, community-focused evening where everyone has a chance to share, learn, and connect. These open mic–style events give anyone in the community up to **5 minutes** to present a project, share a tool, pose a question, or offer a perspective on the evolving AI space. No slides required — just a welcoming space to exchange ideas and keep the local AI conversation moving. If you’d like to take the stage, message **Chris (the organizer)** with a **title and short description** of what you’d like to share. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus. Sponsored by [Transform Labs](https://www.transformlabs.com/services)
