Deep Work - When Lightning Strikes
**THEME**
At this Deep Work we'll explore **how to tune in to the quiet whispers — and the thunderclaps — that life sends our way.**
When Lightning Strikes invites us to **recognise the moments of divine inspiration hiding in plain sight, and learn to trust** the nudges, signs and sudden illuminations that point us toward our truest path.
**TIMING**
\*Please arrive by 7:00PM for a 7:15PM start.
The event will conclude at 8:45PM.
**SETUP**
You will be seated in small groups of about 5 people. We encourage you to sit with people that you don't yet know. :)
**TICKETS**
We have 2 ticket options:
* Early Bird Tickets - $15 (available up to 7 days before the event)
* Standard Tickets - $20
For all tickets, we're happy to provide full refunds for any cancellations received with 48+ hours notice.
We will be serving tea, biscuits and soft drinks.
**PROGRAM**
Through carefully selected quotes and interactive discussions, we will:
* Explore the art of deep listening — how to distinguish between the noise of the world and the still, small voice within
* **Share stories, laughter and insights:** the hunches we followed, the signs we almost missed, and the unexpected sparks that changed everything
* **Create casual and fun art** that captures a moment of personal inspiration — a flash of insight rendered in colour, word or form
* Develop practical ways to **cultivate receptivity** in our daily work lives — slowing down enough to hear what the universe might be trying to tell us
Come ready to reflect, share and listen — to each other, and perhaps to something a little beyond. **Leave with fresh eyes for the guidance already surrounding you, and the courage to act on it.**
**PARKING**
2P parking is available directly adjacent to the venue. [Use this link to navigate there.](https://maps.app.goo.gl/wY8cyfrbZxKnireeA)

📢 Please do not advertise other events or groups.

💰 **No sales pitches! – No selling, no MLMs, no pyramid schemes, no “life-changing mentorship” offers—let’s keep things scam-free.**
By joining an event, you agree to follow these rules. Breaking them means removal from all our groups—no exceptions. Thank you!

Tools to Organize for Success!
We all recognize that if things were better organized, people would be better off. We have all had experiences with a business or government, school or a group that was not well organized and we experience the confusion, delays and upsets of trying to deal with disorganization.
On a personal level, trying to get something started - a plan, some new bright idea you had, perhaps starting a new business - without organization can be a nightmare. Organization is a key and often missing factor in personal success. It is also essential for a flourishing family, group, organization or business. Attaining one's goals, no matter how large or small, requires a knowledge and application of organization.
Psychodrama | Those Who Walked Into Your Life
Once a month, we gather to explore ourselves, our relationships, and the stories we carry through psychodrama, sociometry, and group experience.
每个月一次,我们聚在一起,透过心理剧、社会计量,通过团体来探索自己、探索关系。
Sometimes we explore important relationships—those we are living with now, those we have lost, and those that continue to shape us.
Sometimes we begin with a seemingly ordinary moment or a surreal image and discover how deeply it connects to our lives.
有时,我们会谈到复杂的人家关系;那些正在经历的,已经过去的;
有时,我们会谈到选择、改变与成长。
有时,我们会从一个微不足道的瞬间出发,去寻找它与我们生命的相连。
Whether you are interested in personal growth, understanding yourself more deeply, exploring relationships, or simply meeting people who are willing to engage in genuine conversation, there is a place for you here.
无论你希望探索一些内心更深层的东西,还是单纯想认识一些愿意真诚交流的人,这里都为你留有一个位置。
No Performance, No psychology background or psychodrama experience is required.
你不需要表演,不需要有心理学背景,也不需要有心理剧经验。
We simply invite you to step out of the busyness of everyday life, spend some time with yourself, connect with others, and see life from a different perspective.
我们只是邀请你,在忙碌的生活之外,留一点时间给自己,给自己一个从不同角度看待自己,看待生活的机会。
This is a free community event, generously supported by Psychodrama Australia. Registration is a must

Presenting - How to Think on your Feet
Smashing! Try something new Thursday
Interactive reality workshop - Tonight learn how to respond to questioning, by thinking on you feet
Serious about improving your leadership - **Why mess, come to the best**
Why is Smashing different to other speaking clubs?
Just two member's thoughts, "The fun/laughs factor is definitely a point of difference. We keep it moving with high standards so it’s a nice balance. Too strict makes it tense and boring, too loose and we can lose the energy/commercial feel. SmashSpeak's vibe's in the sweet spot."
"At other clubs I used to listen to long speeches and lectures, here we get so many chances to talk every meeting, that we have to improve"
**Free parking** close: O'Connell and Cobden streets
**IMPORTANT: Be on time, as doors close when the show starts**
“Proudly Australian" – Free-flowing teamwork, greater good focus, sharing the stage, etc

MEL MLOps Community #18 | Data, Decision and Agentic AI Productivity Paradox
We are stoked to announce our next **Melbourne MLOps Community Meetup** of the year!
We are bringing you an absolute powerhouse lineup featuring two industry heavyweights. We will dive deep into tracking ML/DS performance using high-impact business metrics over raw statistical metrics. We will also tackle the AI coding productivity paradox and the high-stakes build-vs-buy SaaS dilemma.
**🎤 Speakers**
We’re thrilled to introduce:
**\- Nathanael Lampe**, Machine Learning Manager *at* Bunnings Warehouse. Nat is widely recognised as one of the most brilliant, deeply technical data science leaders. He brings an elite background in advanced data science, now driving the core Data Science team at Bunnings. In his talk, *Data & Decisions,* Nat will explain how in ML, we often focus on model accuracy but it’s a lot harder to measure the decisions a model supports. When we can anchor our ML practice in true business metrics, we are better equipped to ensure analytics projects succeed.
**\- Javier Candeira**, Fractional CTO *at* Infoplumbing.
Javier is a distinguished veteran of the data, software, and tech consultancy scenes. He brings many years of battle-tested technical and business experience to guiding teams through today's volatile AI landscape.
His talk titled: *The Buy/Build Dilemma and the Agentic Productivity Paradox* addresses three red-hot issues in the MLOps community:
1\. Local LLM inference and tooling for small scale teams\. What is too much local MLOps for a 1\-5 person shop? Is local inference only a cost saver\, or are there also capabilies unlocked by the finer\-grained control afforded by operating one’s own models?
2\. The Buy/Build dilemma\. This is a question for every company\, from small SaaS to big corporate\. The abundance of LLM coding tools shifts the balance\. How?
3\. The Productivity Paradox: If Agentic Coding and LLM autocomplete are so great\, where are the great new products? Where’s the programmer productivity going?
Javier will showcase some of his NixOS-based MLOps-for-one tools, and will attempt to progress the conversation on these three questions with his own reflections based on personal experience.
**Networking**
The Melbourne MLOps Community is committed to fostering a space where AI/ML engineers and practitioners can connect, exchange ideas, and build meaningful relationships.
Come ready to discuss:
* The tools you’re experimenting with
* Trends you’re seeing in ML and MLOps
* Challenges you’re tackling
* Ways to find peer support
We’ll have food, drinks, and the perfect space for great conversations — so feel free to bring along anyone interested in ML, MLOps, or AI more broadly.
**Agenda**
🍕 **5:30pm** – Networking, drinks & food
🙋 **6:00pm** – Welcome
🎤 **6:10pm** – Presentation by Nathanael
❓ **6:30pm** – Questions for Nathanael
🎤 **6:40pm** – Presentation by Javier
❓ **7:00pm** – Questions for Javier
🍻 **7:10pm onwards** – Networking, drinks & food
We’re looking forward to seeing you there!
**P.S.** If you can’t make it in person, we’ll be streaming the event via Google Meet.

————————————
Engaging in men’s work is the new way to forge friendships while being open-minded to personal growth. Many men experience healthier relationships, personally and professionally, by engaging in this work.
Open Men’s Group is a container for men to share vulnerably without receiving judgment or feedback.
We believe that emotionally mature, powerful, compassionate, and purpose-driven men will help heal some of society’s deepest wounds. We support the powerful brilliance of men and we are willing to look at, and take full responsibility for, the pain we are also capable of creating – and suffering. We care deeply about men, our families, communities, and the planet.

Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions
[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations.
If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!).
**HOW IT WORKS**
**Step 1: Bring a topic**
Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event.
**Step 2: Circle up & share**
We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds.
**Step 3: Walk, talk & float**
We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!"
**Step 4: Feel more alive**
Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times.
*For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)*
**HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC**
A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about.
Recent topics include:
* "What are you passionate about right now?"
* "What makes a good friend?"
* "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?"
* "How do you want to be remembered?"
* "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?"
Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter.
**WHAT TO EXPECT**
This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.*
But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here.
**FAQ**
* Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk!
* We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space.
* We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space.
* Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know.
* Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic!
**LOGISTICS**
* If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event.
* This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs.
* Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details.
* If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋
**IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...**
[The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up.
* This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
