**Insight Circle** Connect deeply, developing greater intimacy, with yourself and others, in this **Relational** **Mindfulness Practice** in the form of a conversation. We will practice **observing without judgement**, what’s happening in us and between us, in the moment, as we relate to each other. **Observing sensations, emotions and thoughts** so that we get a complete picture of what it’s like to be us. In this way, we learn to **lead ourselves** through **greater awareness** of the moment, and cultivate our own **inner knowing**. Through exercises introduced at the beginning of each session, we will gradually develop our capacity together to **be present** with what is and listen deeply to ourselves and others. **This practice can help you:** * Connect to your emotions, and * Be more at ease and alignment in your body and mind. * Get inspiration. * Develop intuition to help you make decisions. * Improve your relationships and connect with others on a much deeper level. * Become unstuck in different areas of your life and take action. I spent many years meditating, but when I discovered this, it felt like a revelation, a missing piece that’s helping me get awareness of how I relate to other and create my life. The practice is based on Circling. You can find further information here: https://www.transformationalconnection.com/ Join us on this beautiful journey of discovering ourselves. **Further Information on participation** Previous experience of these practices is not necessary.

I bring my personal life experience to my work having transitioned career and country to be more in-tune with who I am. I am passionate about helping people connect deeply to themselves, bringing out their creativity and gifts for the world through their work. I have been practicing meditation for over 20 years, and spent 5 years living and helping to facilitate the space at a retreat centre on a tiny island in Scotland, established by a Tibetan Buddhist monastery, one of the pioneers of mindfulness in the UK. I believe meditation and mindfulness are wonderful tools which help people gain clarity and focus by creating a space to listen deeply within. They have certainly helped me a great deal!

Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? At every meetup we have a discussion using Socratic method: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method) We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

*We're excited to announce a brand new Coffee Club series where we help kickstart other clubs that Barcelona needs. Each edition, a Coffee Club member takes the reins and brings their community together. First up: **Zoja**, who would love to gather people from the Balkans, and Balkan lovers, for a cultural soirée. Excited to see you there xo Jenna* It's time to gather Balkan people and all the lovers of the Balkans. If you've ever had a Balkan friend, teammate, or neighbor, you already know what I mean, that unique character, the warmth, the directness, the humor that hits straight from the heart. You feel it immediately. It makes a difference. This isn't your usual coffee club. Inspired by how great it is to grab a coffee with a cool friend weekly, you will: **INVITATION: Saturday 04 April, 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM @ in front of The Magic Fountain of Montjuïc, Pl. de Carles Buïgas, Sants-Montjuïc, 08038 Barcelona** * Meet up with high-quality, high-vibe people at Montjuïc in comfy clothes, and bring your best friend, especially if they're a Balkan lover (they need to be, right?) * Grab a drink, walk, explore, and embrace the beauty of Montjuïc together * Have an awesome chat \***OUR CONVERSATION STARTER FOR THIS EVENT IS "Teach me your favorite homemade meal, the one someone you love taught you…"** Let's talk about the thing every Balkan person misses most when living abroad: **FOOD.** The smell of home. The meals our moms and grandmas prepare the moment we walk in from the airport. Tell the story behind it. Let food connect us, as it always has in the Balkans. Because you're not truly Balkan if you don't enjoy food slowly, with all your senses. And let's laugh about that classic Balkan question every mom asks: *"Šta si jela?"* WHAT DID YOU EAT? Because in the Balkans, food equals love. You know exactly what I mean. * Zoja starts: *"My grandma always made me a quick tomato soup when I returned from long trips, something warm, simple, and full of energy. Not salmorejo, not gazpacho, just pure, comforting tomato soup."* She's shared hers. Now it's your turn. * **Why Montjuïc?** Because it's a place where cultures meet. Where water dances with light. Where the Mediterranean opens its arms to the Balkans. And because nature, sunlight, and laughter are daily essentials, and we want to share that energy with you. * Experience that happy, buoyant feeling that comes from an engaging, pleasant chat * Continue on with the rest of your day Just show up, bring your story, and let's begin this Balkan vibe journey. **Disclaimers:** This meetup is free, but logically you must purchase your own coffee or beverage at a nearby spot. The primary language of this meetup will be English; the organizer Jenna also speaks Spanish for any questions or needs, and Zoja speaks Serbian and Croatian, so we will kick that Balkan vibe. Note that while this meetup is in English, this is not an English language learning group, this is a way for incredible strangers (both locals and expat locals, we're about 50/50) to get together, chat, and connect about real topics. If you'd like, please provide a reason / intention for attending so that Jenna and Zoja can make this great for you. Jenna will be actively hosting this space so don't be surprised if she sends you out for a walk with a stranger, or changes it up a bit to encourage connection. Note that Jenna is intentionally keeping this group free and using the power of it to support local third-space coffee spots that bring people together in Barcelona. Be sure to join our **The Club** WhatsApp group after attending one of our Coffee Clubs to be connected with all of our people in Barcelona, in a no-spam, no-sales, genuinely just cool people meeting up, kind of way. If you'd like to support and/or team up with Jenna, buy her a coffee, check out her work at holajenna.com, or find her at the next coffee club and say the code word: kaleidoscope. **Meeting up in person! Saturday 04 April, 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM @ in front of The Magic Fountain of Montjuïc, Pl. de Carles Buïgas, Sants-Montjuïc, 08038 Barcelona** **Who is shaping the experience of this group?** **Zoja** is a curious soul, a traveler, an explorer. Made in Croatia, raised in Serbia, wandering across Europe, and now living in Spain for two years. Somewhere along the way, Spain became home too, so now her heart carries three homes: Croatia, Serbia, and Spain. Maybe that hidden Spanish gene was always there. She's also an agriculturist, an ecologist, and a hidden writer. Nature grounds her, sunlight fuels her, and stories move her. She believes in the power of people gathering in open spaces, breathing fresh air, sharing laughter, and exchanging memories that feel like home. Serbians usually say: *"Rakija connects people."* This time, she wants to connect Balkan people and lovers of Balkan culture through something even more symbolic, a gathering in the open air, under the sunlight, in front of the Magic Fountain of Montjuïc. **Jenna** is a people person, and the founder of AMARIMA, a hot experience design consultancy crafting deeply resonant and immersive experiences that fuse multi-sensorial design, narrative-based hospitality, and behavioral design. She and her team work with some of the world's top hotel brands, experience-driven companies, and individuals to "turn up the dial on life." Among the many things she's done, she's traveled the world living out of a backpack, interviewed famous environmentalists in viral YouTube videos, written a book of travel stories that's in bookstores across the US, hosted multiple podcasts, guest lectured in media and storytelling at top universities, and coached and mentored thousands of people who want to live deep and fulfilling lives. Jenna also founded and chairs the mentorship organization The Human Board. With her home in Barcelona and work happening in cities around the world, Jenna hosts Coffee Club Barcelona to bring together high-quality, high-vibe people, and foster real community. holajenna.com We are waiting for you!

Our monthly meetup is back and this time we’re diving into one of the most powerful drivers of sustainable development: **gender equality.** Join us for a networking evening at the beautiful Ocaña on Plaça Reial, bringing together professionals and advocates for meaningful conversations and new connections. What happens when women and girls are truly placed at the center of development?

In this session, **Daniela Padilla, Clothilde Bruneton, and Alba Romero** from the international NGO *[Street Child](https://street-child.es/)* will share insights from the field, exploring: * How gender inequality shapes poverty and access to education * Why investing in women delivers some of the highest-impact development outcomes * What it takes to turn global commitments into real, local change We’ll also open the discussion to reflect on current development priorities and how different actors — from NGOs to governments to the private sector — can accelerate progress. **Format:** * 30-minute expert talk / Presentation * Interactive discussion & Q&A * Networking drinks **Who should come?** * Private sector professionals exploring impact & ESG * Public sector and development practitioners * NGO, research, and policy professionals * Anyone interested in global development and meaningful conversations

**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception** Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory. For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy. She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps). Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way. **About Our Speaker** Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.

Pay attention! We’re delaying a week for those of you who may be on Spring break and/or celebrating the holiday. Ok, no pancakes, but waffles-a-plenty. Join the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. Look for us upstairs!

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. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center.

...and speaking of breakthrough roles: who can forget the first time we saw Tom Cruise singing Bob Seeger in his underwear? Often considered an updated 1983 version of The Graduate, the movie sparkles with memorable lines and original music. I only regret that I was never told that "Princeton could use someone like Bob..." See the movie first and join us for some "Cruisin'"
