Make New Friends

This is a relaxed after-work bouldering session at **[BlocHaus Bouldering Port Melbourne](https://maps.app.goo.gl/sXoZZVviD4eJY8w89)**, focused on moving, chatting, and unwinding rather than performance or grades. If you’re curious about bouldering, coming back after a break, or just want a low-key way to be active and social on a weekday evening, this one’s for you. No partner required, no pressure to climb hard, and no expectation to already know anyone. We’ll climb at our own pace, take plenty of rest, and socialise between attempts. **Who This Is For** * Beginners or first-timers * Casual climbers who prefer a social pace * Solo joiners who don’t want it to feel intimidating * Anyone who wants to move their body without it feeling like a workout class If you’re an experienced climber, you’re still welcome — just expect a chill, mixed-ability vibe. **Plan** * 6:00 pm — Meet at reception, quick hellos * 6:15 pm — Gentle warm-up & easy climbs * 6:30 pm — Climb at your own pace, rest, and chat between attempts * 8:00 pm — Wind down, stretch, and head off Feel free to arrive later or leave earlier — no rigid structure. **What to Bring** * Change of clothes * Climbing shoes (hire available at the gym) * Entry fee paid individually at the desk * Check out the pricing here: [https://mlb.blochaus.com.au/pricing/](https://mlb.blochaus.com.au/pricing/) **Event Notes** This is not a lesson or coaching session — just a friendly container to climb and socialise together. The goal is to make weekday movement feel easy and welcoming, not intense. **Meeting point:** [BlocHaus Bouldering](https://maps.app.goo.gl/sXoZZVviD4eJY8w89) reception at **6pm**. I’ll post a photo of myself here once I arrive. If you’re running late, please message me your ETA beforehand — once you arrive, I can share our location with you.

We’ll be hanging out in the Market Pavilion, between Caffè Ducale and TODCO. It’s easy to find, and perfect for dropping in or slipping out without any awkwardness. If you’re looking to escape the house, procrastinate on chores, or just have a bit of human interaction that isn’t transactional—this is your spot. Conversation starters will be on hand if you want them. There’s no agenda. I’m new in town. Come exactly as you are, stay for 10 minutes or the full hour—it all counts.

Hi Radiant Ladies, Brunetti on Flinders Lane is always a favourite with our Radiant Ladies—and it’s easy to see why! The coffee is great, and the cakes are simply delicious. See you! Lyn 🌸

**Gain The Confidence to Be Unstoppable! Free Class.** How to Achieve Self Confidence! Without question, self confidence is the key to success. It determines how many of your goals you achieve in life and has an enormous impact on your happiness. It affects how people perceive you, your career achievements, your ability to take risks or try new endeavours, as well as your overall attitude toward yourself and others. Self Confidence is something most people would like to have more of, but aren't sure how to get. Did you ever feel more certain of yourself in the past? Would you like to raise your self confidence ? To increase self confidence, you have to understand what reduces it. If you know why this happens you can reverse the situation and rebuild your self esteem. Self Confidence is self-determinism. One's belief in one's ability to determine his own course. As long as one has that, he's go the universe in his pocket. - L. Ron Hubbard. This day you are able to Learn a few things about: • The true source of security in life. • How self-confidence, self respect and self trust interrelate, and what you can do to rehabilitate them. • The exact steps to become more competent in whatever you do.

Join me for a relaxed walk along the beautiful Bay Trail from Brighton Beach to Middle Brighton Baths and Pier. We can enjoy walking and chatting together as we follow the water's edge, with time to make new friends and share the beauty of our surroundings. When we reach the Dendy Street Beach we will take time to explore the 93 brightly decorated bathing boxes that make up a fun collective work of art. This is an ideal opportunity for photography. There are gorgeous views out across Port Phillip Bay and the distant city skyline. From there we'll walk on to the historic Middle Brighton Baths, a reminder of Melbourne’s Victorian-era sea-bathing culture and then out along the Middle Brighton Pier, a popular destination for fishing and enjoying views of the bay. **Agenda** We will meet at the War Memorial in the Brighton Beach Gardens Green Point at 2pm. There is a photo and a map in the gallery. We'll set off at 2.15pm and walk through the gardens to the end of Green Point. From there we'll walk down to the shoreline and stroll up to the Dendy Street Beach where we can explore the iconic coloured bathing boxes. Then we'll join the Bay Trail path and walk up to the historic Brighton Baths and out along the Middle Brighton Pier. On the way back we'll stop in at the Beach House Cafe on Brighton Beach to pick up a coffee and a snack or you may like to bring your own drinks and something to eat. There will be time to enjoy conversations together and have a paddle in the water. This is an easy to moderate walk along the path and on the sand in some sections. The walking distance is about 6km all up and we'll take around 2 hours. We'll arrive back at Brighton Beach Gardens by 5pm. **Location** Brighton Beach War Memorial in Brighton Beach Gardens, Beach Road, Brighton near the corner of Beach Road and South Road. It is approximately 11km SouthEast of Melbourne's city centre. The Brighton Beach Train Station is on the Sandringham line and the travel time from the city is 25 minutes. There is paid parking at the gardens and free parking at the Brighton Beach Train Station on South Road directly across the road from the meeting spot. When you RSVP, please click Attend on the event page and I will be in touch via Direct Message. I will also be available in the Event Comments on the day.

Instead of having coffee while watching Netflix, we’re coming together as a community, connecting in person, sharing tips, providing support wherever we can AND having coffee together ☕. * **What We’re About** You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, so join us — and be part of a community that rises above circumstances and creates opportunities. Inspire and be inspired by those who make things happen. It's a relaxed, organic space to connect with like-minded people and network—genuinely talking, learning from each other, and connecting over shared interests. * **What to Expect** Casual Meetups: We gather semi-regularly at a local café to chat about everything from stepping outside your comfort zone to business ideas, creative projects, and building a life aligned with your purpose. It’s relaxed, easy, and welcoming—no need to have anything “figured out.” An Easy-Going Space: We keep things simple and low-pressure. Once everyone arrives, we ease in with some light conversation and naturally break into smaller groups. Networking: Feel free to introduce yourself or let people know what you're working on if you feel like it. And if anyone wants to quickly shout out what they’re working on or looking for before we settle in, go for it—it’s a great way to spark new conversations. * **Host Support** If you’d like a one-on-one chat with me about your business, just tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be floating around and happy to make time for you. **Quick note for the day:** Depending on the weather, we might go for a walk around Blackburn Lake. Just remember to wear comfy shoes :)
