The group is facilitated by a trained and qualified Janus worker. This group is designed to offer support, encouragement and to provide a forum, that allows you to make informed choices. The objective of this group is to liberate you from the labels of addiction, dependency, illness sickness and "disease", replacing them with the more proactive terminology of choice, responsibility, self control and decision making. Janus does not use the 12 step model. It uses the Janus approach to working with substance use called "The Resonance Factor" http://bit.ly/Resonance_blog Hopefully you will find these groups informative, innovative and creative.

Join us for another evening at #WPLDN, where we're tackling two vital topics for every WordPress professional! This month, we're exploring the future of WordPress accessibility documentation and hearing a candid story of business survival when AI disrupted traditional traffic sources. Whether you're building inclusive websites or rethinking your business model in the age of AI, these sessions offer practical insights you can act on immediately. **Date:** Thursday, 26 February 2026 ⏰ **Time:** 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM ⬅ **EARLIER TIME** ️ **Cost:** Free (Registration Required) *** **Session 1: WordPress' accessibility documentation is getting a major overhaul. What's new?** **Speaker:** Rian Rietveld ([rianrietveld.com](https://rianrietveld.com/)) Rian is an experienced web accessibility specialist from the Netherlands who has consulted for WordPress agencies and written guidelines for the Dutch government on accessible web forms and applying WCAG. Currently, she focuses on teaching and writing documentation, including a major update to WordPress' accessibility resources. During 25 years of working as a web accessibility specialist, Rian noticed the biggest hurdle to creating an accessible web is the lack of knowledge. People struggle to find reliable information, code patterns, rules and testing methods. Together with Joe Dolson, she started working on the WP Accessibility Knowledge Base: up-to-date, well-maintained information about delivering accessible work and proper testing. With clear do's and don'ts, practical examples, and easy-to-follow documentation. Find out about their progress, how you can contribute, and how the documentation on make.wordpress.org will benefit from this project. *** **Session 2: When AI Killed My Traffic, Humans Saved My Business** **Speaker:** Rodolfo Melogli ([Business Bloomer](https://businessbloomer.com)) Rodolfo is an author, WooCommerce expert and WordCamp speaker who has worked as an independent WooCommerce freelancer since 2011. His goal is to help entrepreneurs and developers overcome their WooCommerce nightmares. He loves travelling, chasing tennis and soccer balls and, of course, wood-fired oven pizza. For years, traffic was the engine of Rodolfo's business until it wasn't. AI changed discovery faster than he expected, and the impact was immediate. This talk tells the story of having to pivot fast: moving away from dependence on search and toward owned relationships. He'll share how building and nurturing communities, both online and offline, became the new foundation. What worked, what failed, and what he'd do differently today. If your WordPress business relies on visibility you don't control, this talk offers a realistic look at what happens when that visibility disappears and how to recover. *** **Schedule:** **6:00 PM** – Doors Open & Networking **6:30 PM** – Welcome & Session 1: Rian Rietveld **7:30 PM** – Short Break & Networking **7:45 PM** – Session 2: Rodolfo Melogli **8:30 PM** – Social & Wrap-Up *** ** Help Us Grow the Community!** Know someone who'd benefit from these sessions? Share this event with your colleagues, clients and WordPress friends! #WPLDN thrives because of word-of-mouth from people like you. Tag us on LinkedIn with #WPLDN or simply forward this page to someone who should be here.

In February, we are taking a look at what is happening with agentic AI and data pipelines Join us in lively Hoxton as we learn from Carmen's and Laura's learning from real-world experiences with agentic AI systems in data pipelines. We are running this event in collaboration with **[Sahaj Software](http://www.sahaj.ai)**. **6pm:** Doors Open **6:30pm:** Talks Start ️The Speakers️ ***Beyond the Hype: Practical AI for Real-World Data Engineering Time Sinks*** ***Carmen Mardiros, Solution Consultant at*** ***[Sahaj Software](https://www.sahaj.ai/)*** ***([Carmen's LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/carmenmardiros/))*** ***Abstract*:** While the world is obsessed with agentic self-healing ETL pipelines, data engineers everywhere still spend hours upon hours on the same tasks as before -- debugging failing tests, exposing new fields into pipelines, navigating schema changes, QA-ing data and business logic. In this session we'll look at some practical examples from the trenches around how to shrink those time sinks using AI coding assistants so that you can spend more time on what really matters. Examples are dbt-based and Claude Code but accompanied by core tenets applicable to any stack and any coding assistant. ***Carmen's Bio:*** Carmen Mardiros has worked around analytics and data for 15 years. Her experience covers areas such as Data architecture design and implementation and has worked in roles that cover Data Strategist, Lead Data Engineer, Data Warehouse Architect, Tracking Developer, Product/Project Manager, Technical BA, Insight Analyst, Data Modeller. ***Agentic AI for Data Pipelines: Our Good, Bad, and Ugly Learnings*** ***Laura Bogaert, Co-Founder and COO at [Tracer.cloud](https://www.tracer.cloud/)*** ***([Laura's LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laura-bogaert/))*** ***Abstract:*** As teams move from single models to agentic systems, data pipelines present a uniquely hard production challenge: failures are distributed, context is fragmented, and root-cause analysis is slow. This talk shares practical learnings from building agentic AI systems for troubleshooting real-world data pipelines, including what worked, what didn’t, and why data ontology and context management are critical. Attendees will leave with concrete insights into designing agentic architectures that actually hold up in production. ***Laura's Bio:*** Laura is a co-founder of [Tracer.cloud](http://tracer.cloud/), where she works on building agentic AI systems for alert investigation in production data pipelines across industries. She started her career at McKinsey as part of the fintech and biopharmaceutical team working on AI strategy and M&A. She holds a BSc from University College London and a MSc from Oxford University. **8pm:** Talks finish. We have the space for networking until 9pm. There will be a short break between the talks.

Wouldn’t it be nice to find a way to overcome your feelings of anger so that you not only control them, but you no longer have the urge to lose your temper in the first place? And how about being able to shake off resentments, persistent annoyance, or even feelings of vengeance? We’d like to invite you to an event on how to overcome anger and resentment. We will show you why people have trouble controlling their temper and where resentment comes from. Flaring anger can ruin a meeting, a relationship, an opportunity, or just about any aspect of life. Worst of all, outbursts towards our family can create hurt that lingers throughout a lifetime. You want to have a civil conversation, and you’ve vowed that you wouldn’t lose your temper, but a few minutes later, the anger flares up. Maybe you’ve realized that being angry doesn’t get you what you want so you internalize it. Or maybe you avoid the knockdown, drag-out fights, but stewing in resentment is exhausting and takes an emotional toll. In this event we show you how to get to the root of your anger so that it stops being an issue to you. You’ll also learn why people harbor resentments and how to move on. Don't continue to struggle, make a difference in your life, and join us for this local event. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This Meetup is sponsored by your local Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.
