Dublin Christmas Grief Walk
While Christmas is often a time of happiness, joy and gatherings with friends and family, it can also be a period when grief feels especially heavy. For those who have lost someone, whether a friend, a family member or even a beloved pet, Christmas can serve as a stark reminder of life’s changes, and feelings of emptiness or loneliness can feel particularly strong amid the festive celebrations around us.
With this in mind, I am organising the first **Dublin Christmas Grief Walk**. If you would like to join, please contact me beforehand, and feel free to bring supporters along. The walk will be an easy route around the **Hell Fire Club**, followed by an optional visit to **Timbertrove Café**. This will be a simple nature walk with a community who quietly understands, providing a space to reflect in nature away from the pressures of the holiday season.
I am no therapist, but someone who empathises with the feelings that Christmas can bring when you have experienced loss. I understand how difficult this time can be, and I want to offer a gentle reminder that you are not alone in your feelings. My goal is to create a sense of uplift within a community at a time that can often feel isolating.
If you are bringing friends or family along I ask you try to car share as there is limited parking in the carpark (plus it is more sustainable!).
Please note that this event is **not covered by insurance** and should **not replace professional therapy** if you are struggling. Small cost of €2 to help cover the Meetup organisation fee.
I hope to see you there! Isabel

Solopreneurs Drinking Coffee — First Event
First attempt at this. If it's good, we'll do it again. If it sucks, we tried.
(Event photo is from a recent trip to Flagstaff. Stock photos of fake people drinking coffee are the worst.)
**Why I'm doing this:**
You're the average of the people you spend the most time with. Running a business solo means I've been spending most of my time with myself. And AI tools, which are great for thinking through business problems, but terrible for actual human connection.
I want to raise that average. Looking for people who want real conversations. Not networking, not pitches, just the kind of talk that makes you think differently about what you're building and why.
If we all end up making a few friends along the way, even better.
**What to expect:**
Coffee. Conversation. No pitches, no elevator speeches, no going around the table introducing ourselves like it's a corporate icebreaker.
Just show up and talk like a normal human.
**Ground rules:**
* No pitching your business
* No recruiting
* No MLM talk
* No hustle porn
**RSVP cap:** 6 people max so it doesn't turn into a crowd.
**Location:** Transcend Coffee & Roastery in Grove City
**Time:** Friday, January 16th at 11 AM.
See you there!

[https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/)
**Join the Columbus City Brunch Club and make new friends!**
Each meetup brings together 4–6 people for casual conversations over brunch. We use the Groupvibe platform to facilitate the meetup and ensure everyone’s a good fit.
👉 **To attend, you’ll need to complete registration via this link:**
[https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/)
We’ll share the exact location of the upcoming meetup the night before only if you have bought a ticket or membership plan.
**Why this works:**
\* Smaller groups make real conversations easier.
\* Discover new restaurants in your city, together.
\* Curated lunch venues with good food and vibe.
\* If you hit it off with your group, there’s plenty of time to hang out afterwards.

This meetup is organized by Groupvibe, a small team passionate about helping people form meaningful friendships offline.
