Mindful Brunch for Like-Minded People
At [House of small wonders](https://share.google/xgOtkc4SBSNdq1OL7) weâre gathering seekers and believers who resonate with the Law of Attraction, the teachings of Abraham-Hicks, Joe Dispenza, and the idea that we consciously create our own reality.⨠Over coffee and good food, weâll share experiences, insights, and practical ways to manifest our desires in daily life.
Whether youâre new to these ideas but deeply interested in this topic and want to start practicing, or youâre already a seasoned practitioner, this is a relaxed, supportive space to connect with like-minded people. Letâs inspire each other and co-create joy, abundance, and purposeful living together! âđĽ

Day trip to Magdeburg
Hello everyone,
Weâre organizing a day trip to Magdeburg on **Saturday, March 07**. Weâll meet at **Berlin Hbf,** from where weâll take the **Regional Bahn** to **Magdeburg Hbf**. The time of the meeting will be mutually agreed upon by the participants.
We plan to explore the city for about **5â6 hours** before returning to Berlin later in the day. Please pack accordingly and register for the meetup as soon as possible. **Join our WhatsApp group and confirm your participation.**

đ HFH Book Club â First Meeting "Empire of AI" by Karen Hao
**Fellow Humans, we're starting a book club!**
We focus on understanding what's actually happening on the crowded stage of AI: the companies driving the AI race, the decisions being made on our behalf, and what it all means for the rest of us.
Every few weeks, we'll choose and read one book together and talk about it. Bring your **thoughts**, your **questions**, your **highlighted passages**, and your **honest reactions**.
**Our first pick: *Empire of AI* by Karen Hao**, who has worked for The Wall Street Journal and contributes to The Atlantic. *She argues that the pursuit of an artificial superintelligence has become its own figurative paper clip factory, devouring too much energy, minerals and human labour. She portrays OpenAI and other companies that make up the fastâgrowing A.I. sector as a âmodern-day colonial world order.â* (excerpt from the NYT review)
**What to expect:**
A relaxed, semi-structured conversation (around 2 hours).
We'll dig into the themes together, share what stood out, and connect the ideas to what we're actually experiencing.
**No expertise required, just read the book and show up curious.**
**Why a book club?** Because some things can't be captured in a headline or a 60-second video. The questions AI raises for our work, our relationships, and our futures deserve more than a scroll. They deserve a real conversation with real people, and a book gives us common ground to start from.
**After this first Meetup, you help define what's next!** Suggest books that have changed how you think about AI, technology, or what it means to be Human. This is your club.
**No tech background needed. Just curiosity and willingness to think out loud with fellow critical thinkers.**
**Join our [LinkedIn Group](https://www.linkedin.com/groups/10088542/) and [Substack](https://humanfuturehub.substack.com/)** for articles, perspectives, and resources between events.
See you there, Your HFH Team!
**Humans, together. Nobody is left behind.** â¤ď¸
Saturday Knight Fever
**đ Hello Strangers! â** For all players and chess-curious folks out there who want to chill, make friends, and enjoy some chess: We are hosting a daily meetup in Mitte / Prenzlauerberg for all experience levels.

Mavericks Bouldering â A Casual Climb & Hangout in Berlin
A small NEXUS gathering built around movement rather than discussion alone.
This is for high-bandwidth Mavericks who spend most of their time in conceptual thought and need some physical counterweight. Why bouldering? Because itâs deliberate: short problems, full focus, and immediate feedback. Youâre on the wall, solving something tangible. The mental noise drops instantly!
Conversations happen naturally in between climbs. No pressure, you move at your own pace. Some exchanges stay light. Others go deep. Both are fine. This is not about athletic achievement. Itâs about presence, recalibration, and being around people who donât require you to shrink or translate yourself.
Come as you are. Try some bouldering problems. Rest when needed, and engage where it makes sense.
**Bring comfortable clothes and climbing shoes if you have them (rentals are available at the gym).**
*Registration equals commitment. If you sign up, you show up. Read the group description first and decide consciously. For context about NEXUS, visit our* ***[website](https://thenexusformula.com)*** *and* ***[newsletter](https://news.thenexusformula.com)****.*

Sunday Tech Coffee Meetup
Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a **networking** event for those in the tech industry in Berlin.
We are usually inside and to the right. Ask the barista/bartender if you can't find us.
Productive Sunday Morning - Co-Working Session (Deep Work, all work welcome)
Hey everyone!
Iâm organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. đ
To ensure that we have both **socialising** AND **working**, we will be using the so called âPomodoroâ technique:
**50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat! If you get into flow, you're also welcome to skip the breaks.
Itâs an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique).
Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background.
I (the host) speak English and German, so either is fine :-)
ââââââââââââââââââ-
AGENDA:
* **15min Intro**
* Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today
* **Pomodoro Session** (3x) - *Each Pomodoro session consists* *of...*
* ...**50min** of uninterrupted âdeep workâ (no talking, no interruptions, no phones)
* ...**10min** of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc.
* Repeat
* Conclude and celebrate your progress
Share your progress, socialise and get to know others đ
ââââ
We'll be at the Social Hub Berlin (they have a food menu in case you get hungry). The structured part will end at 2:30pm, but you're welcome to stay longer, go for lunch together, or leave earlier. See you there đŠľ
**\*\*We'll reserve the long table. Please update your RSVP in advance if you can't attend!\*\***
Screenwriting Focus Group | Filmmakers & Movie Nerds
**đŹ Screenwriters' Meetup Invitation đŹ**
This meetup is for anyone passionate about storytellingâwhether youâre a screenwriter, filmmaker, producer, or someone with a great idea looking for the right collaborators. Whether youâre just starting out or deep into your screenplay, this is the perfect space to create, collaborate, and refine your work.
Weâre trying a new format for this session. The theme will be âLoneliness in a Connected World.â
The session is structured in two parts. During the first hour, weâll collectively explore the topic and gather as many perspectives, experiences, observations, and ideas as possible. In the second hour, weâll use this material to shape a story framework, focusing on a basic three-act structure and clarifying the core elements of a potential narrative.
What I ask from you is simple: before coming, take some time to reflect on the theme.
What is your personal relationship to loneliness in a highly connected, digital world? How does it feel? What experiencesâyour own or those of people you knowâcome to mind? You donât need to write anything down in advance. Just come with a clear point of view and a few thoughts youâve already considered.
The goal is shared thinking, not preparation or finished concepts.
Filmmakers & Movie Nerds Meetup #170
Curious what we do? Check our [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/filmmakersandmovienerds/) âĽď¸
Would you like to meet some like-minded filmmakers? Start a project? Or do you need help with a movie you are currently working on? Are you new in the city and you'd like to meet people tinkering with movies?
**Then you should join us!**
We meet every Sunday. Itâs important to us that we get to know each other in person. To create a community of connected people, work, learn and grow together. For film making you need a crew of reliable people with a positive can-do-attitude. This is the place to find them.
Together, we will talk about these topics:
* What you are currently working on
* What you need help with
* What would you like to help with
* What you you would like to learn
This is event is great for:
* filmmakers
* movie nerds
* writers
* camera operators
* editors
* actors
* sound recorders
* composers
* gaffers
* producers
We are limiting the amount of people, so we can have a structured introduction and discussion. After that we get together loosely with some drinks and chats. And then we mostly go for dinner with a couple of us.
**Important information**:
*To sustain and grow this amazing community, we started a member contribution that is due every month. The money we collect is used solely for the purpose of the community. Of course you can come once or twice without contributing to check us out!*
GATHERING OF ANIMATED SHORTS
You want to make animated short film, collaborate on, or be part of the creation process; this meetup is for you!

The goal is the process.
Let us enjoy the animations we want to make!
PS: The cafĂŠ has another floor, take some time to look upstairs ;)

[face to face] Interview Simulation
Join this **Interview Simulation** session â to sharpen the skills for both interviews **and** architectural pitches.
đĄ How it works
The event is split into three parts:
1. **Answers for common behavioral questions** \- at the beginning\, I will read some common interview questions\, explain what they mean\, and give the correct answers\.
2. **Interview Simulation (10 minute rounds)** â One participant acts as the interviewee and answers a round of behavioral and design-focused questions. Each other participant gets to ask him one interview question.
3. **Feedback Round** â The group provides feedback on communication, structure, and clarity. Constructive criticism is encouraged.
đĄYou will be asked:
* **Behavioral questions** (âTell me about yourselfâ, âDescribe a challenge you faced...â)
* **Technical questions** (based on your tech stack)
* **Light design problems** (high-level reasoning, not code)
No need to prepare anything in advance â just bring curiosity and an open mind.
Feel free to bring your CV if youâd like feedback from others, or share a few words if youâre currently job hunting. If so, we will also brainstorm answers to more common questions that you were asked.
Whether youâre preparing for an interview or simply want to grow as a software designer or architect, this session is for you.

**What moves are you making?**
A promotion youâre working toward.

A bigger leadership opportunity.
A conversation that needs to happen.
A decision thatâs been sitting in the back of your mind.
For our Q1 Women in Product Columbus event, weâre creating space to actually work through those moments.
**Making Moves** is an evening of focused, facilitated coaching conversations with experienced mentors from our local product community. This isnât a panel. Itâs not passive networking. Itâs small-group dialogue designed to be thoughtful, practical, and worth your time.
Hereâs how it will work:
⢠Youâll choose a topic that reflects what youâre navigating right now
⢠Youâll join a small coaching circle (5â7 participants)
⢠Each circle is led by a mentor who has lived experience in that area
⢠Weâll run two rounds so you can go deeper or explore a second conversation

⢠Communicating the Value of Your Work (or Team)
⢠Career Transitions & Whatâs Next
⢠Growing Into Leadership
⢠Staying Relevant as Technology (and AI) Changes
⢠Getting Alignment and Decisions from Leadership
Our goal is simple: you leave with clearer thinking, practical perspective, and at least one next step you feel confident about.
Space in each circle will be limited to keep conversations meaningful.
If this sounds like the kind of room youâve been wanting to be in, weâd love to see you on March 10.
