# CAMBIA-MENTI – PILOT ## Da Sogno a Visione **Workshop esperienziale di Coaching per Manager & Leader** 📍 Via Gaspare Rosales, 9, 20124 Milano MI 📅 15 marzo 🕒 15:00 – 18:00 👥 Numero limitato Ci sono momenti in cui la carriera funziona. Eppure qualcosa dentro non risuona più. Hai costruito competenze, responsabilità, riconoscimento. Ma emerge una domanda più profonda: **È davvero questa la direzione che voglio abitare?** CAMBIA-MENTI è un workshop esperienziale di 3 ore dedicato a Manager e Leader che stanno attraversando una soglia evolutiva. Non si tratta di cambiare lavoro. Si tratta di cambiare osservatore. Durante l’incontro lavoreremo su: ✔ Sogno vs Visione ✔ Linguaggio che limita vs linguaggio generativo ✔ Identità professionale in trasformazione ✔ Il Mandala della Visione ✔ Il primo passo concreto da compiere entro 72 ore Non teoria. Esperienza guidata, domande potenti, confronto autentico. Uscirai con: • Una Visione scritta • Una direzione più chiara • Un impegno concreto • Un nuovo modo di osservarti Il workshop sarà tenuto da **Loretta Stefano**, Mentore & Career Coach certificata ACC ICF, professionista con esperienza riconosciuta nell’ambito della formazione e del coaching e con quasi vent’anni nel settore finanziario e nella guida di team in contesti complessi. Un approccio che unisce esperienza manageriale, profondità e concretezza. *** ### Evento Pilota Questo è il primo workshop CAMBIA-MENTI in formato pilot. Per questo motivo il contributo di partecipazione è: **57 € invece di 97 €** Un investimento consapevole per dedicarti tre ore di profondità e chiarezza. *** Se senti che non si tratta di “lasciare”, ma di andare verso, questo è il tuo momento. I posti sono limitati. Maggiori info sulla pagina web: https://www.lorettastefano.com/

SUPMindfulness è un viaggio sull’acqua e dentro di te. Scopri il modo più semplice e naturale per avvicinarti al SUP e alla mindfulness, nel cuore di Milano. Un invito a rallentare, respirare e ritrovare equilibrio… sospesi sull’acqua. Preparati a scoprire Milano da una nuova prospettiva e ritrovare il tuo benessere anche in città. **Orario** 9.30 - 12.00 **⏱ Durata:** 2h30 **👥 Posti:** max 11 **📍 Ritrovo:** Associazione Nazionale Marinai d’Italia, viale Gorizia 9B (Darsena) **✅ Livello:** adatto anche alla prima volta in SUP **Come si svolge SUPMindfulness sui Navigli di Milano** **1) Lezione introduttiva di SUP (sicurezza + tecnica base)** Fondamentale se è la tua prima volta, utile anche se vuoi perfezionare postura e pagaiata. Useremo tavole ampie e stabili: imparare sarà più semplice di quanto immagini. **2) Mindful Tour: meditazione in movimento** Dalla Darsena al Naviglio Grande vivremo una pagaiata in SUP a ritmo lento, guidata e adatta anche ai principianti che per la prima volta salgono sulla tavola. **3) Meditazione guidata + tisana finale** Al rientro in Darsena uniremo i SUP e ci prenderemo un tempo per una meditazione seduti sulla tavola. Chiuderemo l’esperienza con una tisana da sorseggiare sull’acqua. **SUPMindfulness è uno spazio Digital Detox** Durante l’esperienza mettiamo via lo smartphone, per rigenerarci e vivere davvero il momento: potrai lasciarlo in un locale custodito. Foto e video ricordo li realizzo io, così tu puoi restare presente **Cosa è incluso** * SUP, pagaia, giubbotto di salvataggio * Lezione SUP (per principianti e per chi vuole un ripasso tecnico, con correzioni su postura e pagaiata) **Abbigliamento consigliato** Non serve abbigliamento tecnico. In questa stagione è consigliato abbigliamento sportivo comodo (es. tuta/leggings, felpa, giacca antivento, cappellino). Ai piedi: calzari in neoprene o scarpe da scoglio; se preferisci, anche a piedi nudi. **Cosa portare (necessario)** * Un cambio completo * Asciugamano * Cordino per occhiali (da vista o da sole, se li usi) **Dove ci troviamo** Il ritrovo è alla storica Associazione Nazionale Marinai d’Italia in Viale Gorizia 9B a Milano. Qui potrai cambiarti con calma e lasciare vestiti, borse e zaini in un locale custodito. **Condizioni meteo** L’uscita si svolgerà solo in condizioni meteo favorevoli. In caso di pioggia, verrà rimandata.

**Are you ready for the Milano–Cortina Winter Olympics? We’re not.** **That’s why we’ve created our very own Ostello Bello "Olympic" Games: a glorious display of questionable athletic skills and high-level nonsense.** While the "other" guys are busy with the official **Milano-Cortina 2026** ceremonies, we’re bringing the real "action" to the streets of Milan. From February 6th, we aren't gathering to break world records; we’re gathering to break the laws of physics. This isn’t about the podium; it’s about the survival of the chillest. Get your "winter" gear ready, because we’re about to prove that being an elite athlete is 10% talent and 90% just showing up for the vibes. **The Incentive:** Every participant gets a **shot**. The "legends" who actually win take home an **Ostello Bello T-shirt or a Drink**. ## The Disciplines: Official "Technical" Standards Every day from **7 PM to 9 PM**, our "athletes" will face a rotating schedule of these elite winter disciplines: ### 1\. Air Hockey: The Wrist\-Flick Battle A high-speed duel where the only thing frozen is your gaze on the puck. * **The Goal:** Smash the plastic disc into the hole. * **Requirement:** Move your hand faster than your brain can process and celebrate every point like you’ve just secured a gold medal. ### 2\. Boxing\-Glove Beer Pong: The Clumsy Champion Challenge We took a classic and made it impossible by adding the "Yeti factor." * **The Twist:** You have to play wearing massive, padded boxing gloves. * **The Challenge:** Gripping a tiny ball with giant hands is the ultimate test of patience. Success here is statistically unlikely and basically a miracle. ### 3\. DIY Curling: The Professional Slide The most serious-looking sport in our program. We’ve replaced expensive stones with pots and ice with felt pads, but the tension is real. * **The Setup:** A "House" (target) taped on the floor and a "Hog Line" for the release. * **The Action:** Launch the pot while your teammates run alongside it with brooms, screaming *"Hurry! Hard!"* just like in the real tournaments. * **The Score:** Closest pot to the center wins. Clean floors are a bonus. ### BONUS DAY: The "Wildcard" Game The discipline is a mystery. Our local legends will choose the challenge. Expect the unexpected: and probably more shots. **AND REPEAT.**

That’ll give us plenty of time to fill out our Oscar Ballots, pick up some free popcorn, candy, and something to drink, mix, mingle, take some photos, pick up your Newfangled Kitchen Meal Deal, grab a seat in our CMG Reserved Section, then settle in to enjoy the Academy Awards on the Big Screen! PICTURES: We’ll take pics throughout the evening and the Drexel Paparazzi will be on hand as well. We’ll also take a big group photo around 6:40 near the entrance before the show begins.

VEGAN MEALS: As previously mentioned, the food vendor does NOT have a vegan option at this year’s Oscar Party. However, we DO have a solution! I have reached out to several individuals who are affected. If you are a vegan, plan to attend the Oscar Party and did not receive an e-mail from me, please reach out via private message post a note below. I’ll provide details off-line. And while there won’t be a vegan meal option this year, I think we do have a workable solution. And, all other plans are usiness-as-usual: popcorn, sodas, candy, on-site paparazzi, decorations, bar drinks (including your first drink on the house), the Drexel’s Annual Oscar ballot contest, along with the Big Show on the Big Screen and a fun group of Movie Group friends to watch ‘em with!

**\*\*\* We've Moved! Bold Penguin - 6555 Longshore St, Dublin, OH 43017 \*\*\*** Jonathan Stevens **Polymorphic Association - The Good, the Bad and the Ugly** When Active Record works, it’s great. Polymorphic associations in Active Record promise elegant flexibility: one interface, many possible models. When they work, they feel almost magical. But when your application grows and real‑world complexity sets in, that magic can quickly turn into confusion, broken queries, and performance headaches. We’ll explore where polymorphic associations shine, where they silently introduce technical debt, and why even experienced Rails developers can end up wrestling with unscoped queries, tricky joins, and hard‑to‑optimize relationships. We’ll walk through real examples of tangled polymorphic logic—and more importantly, show practical strategies to refactor, untangle, or even avoid these pitfalls entirely. By the end, you’ll know when to reach for polymorphism, when to run away from it, and what to do when your complex query simply refuses to cooperate. **AGENDA:** * See updates to parking below * Doors open at 5:30, feel free to come and hang out before! * Official start of the meeting is at 6:30pm * After the meeting is done, we will go hang out at a nearby space in Bridge Park! If you can, please sign up via meetup by noon the day of the meeting so we can have an estimate headcount for food :) We always order extra, so feel free to join us even if you don't get signed up! Thank you to Bold Penguin for providing the food and location! **Parking & Arrival:** **Parking:** Parking in Bridge Park is free. The closest lots are the Mooney Garage and the Hotel/Endres Garage. **Entry:** The doors to the office are to the right of PINS. The street level door and elevators lock at 6pm. If you arrive after that, someone should be there to let you in, else call the number posted. Take the elevator to the 2nd floor. Once you exit the elevator, turn right. \*\*\* We are a bunch of professionals, students, and geeks who are excited about Ruby programming language ([http://ruby-lang.org/](http://ruby-lang.org/)) and Rails framework ([http://rubyonrails.com/](http://rubyonrails.com/)) and the joy they have brought back to web development. Our main goal is to share the love of the Ruby and Rails ecosystems with anyone that is interested. We cater to everyone, whether a non-programmer through advanced Rubyists. * We give lectures on programming topics * We freely provide decades worth of experience * For full details of this month's meeting please visit [http://columbusrb.com](http://columbusrb.com)
