🌍 JUST GUTSY — Solo Travelers Meetup (Paris 4PM local time)
**No pressure. No plans. Just new friends ✨**
Whether you’re visiting Paris for the first time, just arrived, or simply love meeting curious, open-minded people, this bi-weekly **Just Gutsy** meetup is an easy way to share stories, make friends, and explore the city together.
**Who it’s for?**
• Solo travelers
• Expats & digital nomads
• Locals who love meeting travelers
**What to expect?**
✨ Relaxed, **self-led** gathering
🤝 Small group energy
🌍 Travel stories, tips & shared adventures
🍹 Grab a drink or snack if you like
**How it works?**
This is a self-led meetup, meaning I set it up for you but the magic happens between you.
To make sure everyone finds each other smoothly, please follow these simple coordination steps:
1️⃣ **RSVP** Thoughtfully
If you’re planning to come, tap “Going.”
It helps others feel confident joining and builds momentum before the meetup.
Even if you’re 80% sure, RSVP.
If your plans change, please update your RSVP so others aren’t expecting your attendance.
2️⃣ **Confirm 2 Hours Before** (Essential)
To ensure the meetup runs, please comment on this event page at least 2 hours before the start time:
“Confirmed for today 😊”
This allows everyone to see, ahead of time, who is actually coming.
The meetup moves forward when at least 2 people confirm 2 hours before the event.
If fewer than 2 confirmations are posted by then, attendance may be low that day.
This avoids anyone showing up uncertain.
3️⃣ **Signal Your Arrival**
When you arrive, comment on this event page:
“Arrived” + where you’re sitting + what you’re wearing
Example:
“Arrived. Sitting outside near the entrance. Wearing a black t-shirt.”
This ensures everyone can easily find each other.
Recognition Tip
Having a clear profile photo on Meetup is highly encouraged — it makes recognition effortless and helps the group form faster.
**When & Where?**
📅 Day: Every Tuesday & Saturday
🕓 Time: 4:00 PM local time
📍 Meeting point: In front of **Costadoro Social Coffee.**
**Arrive on time,** smaller groups make it easier to connect.

**About Just Gutsy**
**Just Gutsy** is a global community for solo travelers who are free spirited, love exploring the world believe that real connections make the best memories.
Hi, I am Syrine,
I started solo traveling in 2018 and it changed my life, from introvert to extrovert. Along the way, I loved meeting people, but also felt how hard it can be to find connection when traveling alone.
I’m building Just Gutsy so no one has to feel alone on the road — and so anyone who’s still shy to take that first step has a welcoming place to start. 💛

Hello,
I want to share the passion I have for watercolor with people who want an initiation of this fantastic and peaceful art.
The purpose is to learn the basic technical skill but the main part is to find its own style of pouring the colour into a nice time around cakes and coffees (or tea).
The session costs 22€.
I can invite you in my personal workshop in Vincennes (métro 1 or rer A) for 2h of creativity. All watercolor supplies is provided, just bring your smile :)

Drawing Dessin: Grand Palais
Ce dimanche il fera frais et pluvieux, alors on propose de dessiner à l’intérieur du Grand Palais. En ce moment, il y a plusieurs expositions, mais le musée est aussi très grand avec plein de choses intéressantes et de gens à dessiner dans les espaces libres d’accès, donc on peut choisir ce qu’on préfère. Si vous souhaitez vous rendre à une exposition payante, il est conseillé d'acheter votre billet à l'avance :[https://www.grandpalais.fr/fr/informations-pratiques](https://www.grandpalais.fr/fr/informations-pratiques).
On se retrouve juste devant l’entrée principale du musée à 14h30 et on se retrouve au même endroit à 17h pour aller dans un café, partager nos dessins et socialiser. Apportez vos affaires de dessin et un carnet de croquis. On encourage tous les niveaux de participer.
This Sunday, the weather looks unpredictable so we propose drawing inside at the Grand Palais. There are several interesting exhibitions on at the moment (payment required), but you can also find many things to draw inside the general areas of the museum itself. If you do want to go to a paid exhibit, we advise booking in advance: https://www.grandpalais.fr/en/plan-your-visit.
We will meet just before the main front door of the museum at 14:30 and meet again there at 17:00 to go a cafe together to chat and share our sketchbooks. We encourage all levels of experience. Bring your drawing materials and a sketchbook.
Venez discuter de ce qui vous stress au travail
C'est un petit groupe gratuit, à l'étage d'un bar. Vous n'êtes pas obligé de consommer, mais cela ferait plaisir au patron :)

Coachs : Apprenez en 2 heures un super outil Marketing et de coaching- Atelier 1
DANS TOUS LES CAS, MERCI de téléphoner au 0782326054 au moins 48 heures avant la Date prévue
ATELIER 1 spécial COACHS :
Découvrez et Apprenez à faire une vidéo qui peut servir dans le domaine marketing mais aussi un outil d'expression dans le domaine du coaching et de l'accompagnement et relation d'aide :
- aide à la visualisation d'un objectif
- aide à l'expression de ses conflits intérieurs
- construction de métaphores (visuel, son/musique générant plus d'émotions que de simples écrits)
de style "main qui écrit " et autres effets originaux pour présenter vos services en seulement 2 heures !
https://youtu.be/ckHyvBomRF8
sans logiciel coûteux à installer !
Aujourd'hui, la vidéo est presque indispensable sur internet car elle est plus facile et ludique à regarder qu'un texte à lire.
Une vidéo de quelques minutes permet d'ouvrir votre chaîne Youtube et de vous amener plus de notoriété et de nouveaux clients qui ne vous auraient pas trouvé par votre site internet.
Beaucoup de personnes se filment simplement eux mêmes mais leurs vidéo ne ressort pas spécialement parmi les recherches sur Youtube car elle n'est pas "originale" par rapport aux autres.
Or notre cerveau aime les métaphores, les représentations symboliques liées à des mots et phrases clés.
"Un bon schéma vaut mieux qu'un long discours" auquel on rajoutera :
"une méthaphore visuelle" vaut mieux qu'un long discours.
De plus, si vous n'aimez pas spécialement vous montrer en vidéo, ceci est la solution qui réunit les 2 atouts.
Mais rien ne vous empêche aussi de rajouter quelques secondes pour dire bonjour ou vous présenter en vidéo ou avec une simple photo.
En 2 heures, vous apprendrez à créer ce genre de petite vidéo très utile et
- efficace au point de vue marketing
- mais cela peut aussi vous servir à faire des vidéos originales et attractives pour votre site, blog ou chaîne Youtube, Facebook etc.
- Vous pouvez venir avec un projet vidéo ou non
- Amenez vos ordinateurs portables si vous en avez !
Durée atelier : 2 heures
Heure début : 17 heures
Heure fin : 19 heures
Tarif : 100 € en tout
- dont la moitié 50€ pour réservation obligatoire pour une question d'organisation et d'engagement mutuel afin d'éviter que des personnes s'inscrivent au Meetup et ne viennent pas sans penser à se désinscrire, ce qui est malheureusement le cas de la majorité de Meetups
- réservation obligatoire au plus tard la veille de l'atelier
- et les 50 € restant à régler dès votre arrivée
C'est un investissement à coup sûr qui vous fera gagner beaucoup efficacité, de temps et qui vous procura un moyen de grande créativité.
- Cet outil permet aussi de fabriquer "des histoires" qui peuvent très bien convenir à l'approfondissement et à l’interaction avec un enfant dans le domaine éducatif ou psychologique.
D'autres ateliers auront lieu certains Jeudi soir ou Dimanche après midi, mais il est souvent mieux d'agir maintenant pour avancer vers vos objectifs !
- Cet atelier sera suivi d'un Atelier 2 spécial Coachs où chacun travaillera sur son projet personnel (optionnel) pour les personnes intéressées.
Merci de préciser sur ce mur si vous pouvez venir avec votre ordinateur portable afin de prévoir le nombre de place et de postes disponibles.

# FAQs
**Do all ideas have a chance at getting funded?**
Not all ideas will move forward after initial pitches on Saturday. Once pitches are complete, we’ll vote for top ideas and form teams around the 4 – 7 ideas with the most votes. You must recruit **at least four total team members** (including the founder) to move forward and have a chance at getting funded on Sunday. If your idea doesn’t move forward, you can join another team!
**Do I have to submit my idea online prior to the event?**
Unlike previous years, we don’t have the option to submit your idea online prior to the event. Instead, everyone will be going through a brainstorming exercise on Saturday that’ll help you prepare for your initial pitch.
**Will we be working for 24 hours straight?**
Nope. The event is split over two days. You’ll be building on Saturday and pitching on Sunday.
**Do I have to pitch an idea?**
Nope. You can also simply join a team.
**What types of entrepreneurs does GBH support?**
While GBH most often works with technology startups, we support *any* organization (for- or non-profit) that makes an impact on health in the US or across the world.
Data & Analytics Wednesday - The Data-Driven Brand
**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.
