Español abajo 👇 ## ENGLISH VERSION Ever walked into a room full of strangers and thought *"d#\*n, where do I even start"*? 🤔 Yeah. Us too. That's exactly why this exists. 💡 **What's happening:** We get a group of locals, foreigners, travelers, and random interesting humans in one room. Then we play some conversation games. Simple stuff. Cards with questions. Getting people to actually talk to each other instead of standing around pretending to read the bar menu. 🍸 **But here's the thing:** You don't have to be fluent. You don't need to be outgoing. You can literally show up alone, stand in a corner, and still leave with a new contact in your phone. 📱 No forced networking. No "let me tell you about my startup" Just conversations. Real ones. ✨ **Who comes:** People who moved here and don't know anyone. People who speak three languages and want to practice a fourth. Travelers killing time before their next flight. Locals curious about what's happening in their city. 🌍 Basically: everyone who's tired of the same old bar scene. **The details:** 📍 Sabores Puros — inside Sileo Hotel Azcuénaga 1968, Recoleta 🕕 Saturday \| 18:00 – 20:00 🎟 **Entry:** $5.000 Come solo. Leave with stories. *Or don't. No one will notice.* 🤷 Follow us on Instagram: [https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy](https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy) *** ## VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL ¿Alguna vez entraste a un cuarto lleno de estranjeros y pensaste *"m·#\*da, por dónde empiezo"*? 🤔 Sí. Nosotros también. Por eso existe esto. 💡 **Qué pasa:** Juntamos un grupo de locales, extranjeros, viajeros y humanos interesantes random en un cuarto. Después jugamos algunos juegos de conversación. Cosas simples. Cartas con preguntas. Haciendo que la gente realmente hable entre sí en lugar de pararse alrededor fingiendo leer el menú del bar. 🍸 **Pero aquí está lo bueno:** No tienes que ser fluido. No necesitas ser extrovertido. Literalmente puedes llegar solo, pararte en una esquina, y aún así irte con un nuevo contacto en tu teléfono. 📱 Sin networking forzado. Sin "déjame contarte sobre mi startup" Solo conversaciones. Reales. ✨ **Quién viene:** Gente que se mudó aquí y no conoce a nadie. Gente que habla tres idiomas y quiere practicar un cuarto. Viajeros matando tiempo antes de su siguiente vuelo. Locales curiosos sobre qué está pasando en su ciudad. 🌍 Básicamente: todos los que están hartos de la misma escena de siempre. **Los detalles:** 📍 Sabores Puros — Sileo Hotel Azcuénaga 1968, Recoleta 🕕 Sábado \| 18:00 – 20:00 🎟 **Entrada:** $5.000 Ven solo. Vete con historias. *O no. Nadie se va a dar cuenta.* 🤷 Seguinos en Instagram: [https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy](https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy)

**Women's Moon Circle \| New Moon in Gemini \| 13 June 2026** *When was the last time you gave yourself space to truly pause, reflect, and reconnect, with yourself and with other women?* It can be hard to create that space on your own, to slow down long enough to reflect, be intentional, and create a sanctuary in your life that allows for clarity and sustained direction. The Women’s Moon Circle is a twice-monthly gathering held around the New Moon and Full Moon, offering a steady rhythm to return to. Each gathering is an intimate space for 6-8 women to land in their bodies, step out of the pace of everyday life, and be witnessed in community. Each circle will be loosely oriented around the theme of the moon: \- The **New Moon Circle** is oriented towards a return to oneself, with a focus on tuning inwards to surface desires, intentions, and boundaries. \- June's New Moon in **Gemini** invites us to invites us to become curious about our inner world, our conversations, and the stories we repeat. How do we want to speak to ourselves and others? Each circle will weave together: ✨ **Ritual & Rhythm** We use the moon cycles as a recurring invitation to pause and pay attention, using simple ritual to orient and connect to the cyclical rhythms of nature and to the ebb and flow within ourselves. ✨ **Reflection** A container to slow down, pause, and make meaning of what we’re living. Without space for reflection, life can feel fast, overwhelming, and undigested. Here, we take time to process, integrate, and savor. ✨ **Receiving** Many women are good at giving, holding, and supporting others, but less comfortable with receiving. We practice what it means to ask for support and allow ourselves to be held. ✨ **Relationship** A space to reconnect with your own desires and feelings. To notice where you may be attuned to others at the expense of yourself, and to practice staying connected to your inner experience while also being in relationship with others. It is also about community. Being IRL with women who are thinking more expansively, feeling deeper, and choosing growth instead of staying stuck in the same patterns. The kind of connection that’s difficult to find through surface-level interactions, scrolling, or by navigating everything alone. This is not about perfection or performance. It is about presence, embodiment, and real connection. For women seeking: • deeper conversations • conscious community • time to reflect and integrate • nervous system regulation and rest • a sense of connection and belonging, especially while building life far from home Small group, limited spots. Held in English. 📍 **Guemes 4673 2C (Palermo Soho)** 🗓️ **Saturday\, 13 June \| 7:30pm \- 9:30 pm** Value: $18 USD / 25.000p Payment Links: Paypal: https://py.pl/mmBCPVsTS2XpHHFKr1nE9w Mercado Pago: https://mpago.la/2yPLPga Transferencia: ebmc.gal I look forward to gathering with you! xo, Elle

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###
