Let's meet on Sant Jordi's day (the most beautiful day in Barcelona) to channel this energy into our most productive work. This is an invitation to stop postponing important work for urgent work. Let's meet for a focused half-day session where we work ON our businesses, not just IN them. **What this is:** A strategic coworking experience designed to help you gain clarity, make important decisions, and execute one high-value action that moves your business forward. We won't be checking emails or working on admin tasks, we'll be doing CEO-level work that we keep putting off. **What we'll do:** * Opening circle for intention setting and goal sharing * Identify your ONE high-value action that's been on hold * Deep focused work blocks with accountability check-ins * Closing commitment ritual **What you'll leave with:** A high-value business action COMPLETED, clarity on your strategic priorities, and the momentum that comes from accomplishing important work alongside other driven women. **Bring:** Your laptop, charger, and a journal if you'd like. You can buy drinks and snacks at the venue. **Important:** *Only 15 spaces available*. Book ONLY if you're 100% certain you can attend. Last-minute cancellations take away someone else's opportunity to make real progress on their business. This session depends on the full commitment and energy of every person in the group. **🌟 Bonus:** The day before, you'll receive some journaling prompts to prepare your mind for clarity and focus. See you on Thursday!

Uncorking the Unconscious: An Evening of Writing out of the Glass and Into the Self Join us for a creative mix of wine, Jung and journaling. Let your tastebuds lead you into memories, explore your connections with your unconscious, and learn from your inner wisdom. This workshop mixes a guided wine tasting with guided journaling: designed to help you into a new place in yourself, while at the same time enjoy the sensorial experience of selected wines. We will be using a series of prompts and imagery to take you into a journaling experience that will leave you with a clearer idea of who you are, what you have learnt on the way here, and what you can do going forwards to make positive change. The journaling session is based on the works of Carl Jung and Ira Progoff, mixed with the experience of Shadow Journaling founder Oliver Mann. He’s the co-founder of the Barcelona Journaling Festival, Certified Journal to the Self Instructor, and a council member of the International Association for Journal Writing. The workshop is open for anyone, regardless of writing experience, or wine drinking experience. Bring a pen, paper and an open mind!

Volvemos a la carga con mucho teatro y más ganas que nunca de poder compartir este maravilloso arte con vosotros. Teatro en estado puro al alcance de todos! Este curso pretende facilitar el descubrimiento y la ejercitación de los hábitos creadores del actor en el alumnado. Haremos un repaso de todo lo aprendido (técnicas de formación del actor, cuerpo, voz, paleta emotiva, improvisaciones, desbloqueos…) para entrar a fondo en un trabajo de escenas cinematográficas y teatrales. Los alumnos aprenderán, mediante la práctica, a trabajar una secuencia cinematográfica y una escena teatral, se enfrentaran a retos de creación de personajes y escenas, en función de la necesidad de superación de cada alumno. Se les otorgará personajes y situaciones más conflictivas, siempre enfocándonos a la mejora y superación del trabajo interpretativo del alumno. Se trabajará a fondo el análisis de personajes y textos de distintos géneros, para finalmente presentar las escenas. Se incidirá más en el trabajo individual y grupal para mejorar las capacidades actorales. Todo esto intercalado, con clases prácticas y de formación actoral, para poder ir aplicando lo aprendido en las escenas y profundizar en un trabajo más completo. Para este grupo es necesario una experiencia mínima en teatro. No os preocupéis si no hay mucha gente apuntada por meetup, la actividad se hace igual porque tenemos más gente apuntada por otros lugares. Lo único ESENCIAL PARA PODER ASISITIR es que nos escribas para que te CONFIRMEMOS LA PLAZA. Sin confirmación por parte nuestra no podréis acceder al evento

**Poorna Bell** talks about the big themes from her latest non-fiction book *She Wanted More*, which looks at a wide range of issues from relationships to ageing, success to sex, adventure to autonomy, across a sub-section of women in their 40s, 50s and 60s who are redefining life according to their goals, not other people's expectations. It is for anyone of any age, however! She will be joined in conversation by author and journalist Priya Joi. *About the author* **Poorna Bell** is an award-winning journalist and author, having working in journalism for 23+ years and having published 6 books. Her third non-fiction book Stronger won a Sunday Times Sports Book award. *About the book* ***[She wanted more](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/she-wanted-more/)*** The new book for women who want to live differently - featuring interviews with fascinating, inspirational women from all walks of life When Poorna Bell found herself at the height of grief in her mid-thirties, she spent each day just trying to survive. As her new self began to emerge back into the world, she realised she had spent a lifetime playing by the rules that had been set for women. But who set these rules? And why? In her powerful, inspirational new book, Poorna Bell asks you to reimagine your future. To know that you can write your own story - to find the confidence to live exactly as you want to, and reclaim your joy. To discover that if you want more, you can get it. Join Poorna as she paves the way for a new future, including interviews with Marian Keyes, Asma Khan, Hollie McNish, Mariella Frostrup, Heidi Clements, Luisa Dunn, Cindy Gallop, Seema Anand, Catherine Gray, Sam Baker, Jennifer Cox and more.

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

What happens when a room full of strangers bring their worst dating disasters, career mistakes, and life dilemmas - and a comedian has to fix them live on stage?
 That's Dear Josh.
 No script. No rehearsal. You submit your real problem. Josh and a panel of Barcelona's funniest comedians solve it live - and the whole room watches.
 Here's how it works: Before the show, you submit your problem - dating, career, bad decisions, moral dilemmas, whatever's keeping you up at night. Josh picks the best ones and works through them live on stage with his panel. Some nights you'll cry laughing. Some nights you'll genuinely walk away with clarity. Most nights, both.
 Every show is completely one-of-a-kind because the audience writes it.
 Why people come: * You've watched Josh give advice online. Now watch him do it live - with no filter and a microphone. * It's a comedy show, a social experiment, and a night out you'll actually remember. * Whether you come with friends or by yourself, you're leaving with a story. **ABOUT THE HOST** Josh Otusanya is a stand-up comedian and content creator with 11 million followers across social media and hundreds of millions of views online. Known for turning real human experiences into sharp, funny, and surprisingly useful content - he's now bringing that energy from the internet to the stage here in Barcelona. 
Josh has previously performed at sold-out shows internationally. 📅 Friday April 24th - 8:30PM
📍 La Off Barcelona

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!
