New Parents

Our monthly Northern social is held at Moon Dog World in Preston. Moon Dog World is a brewery, restaurant and bar with a lagoon, waterfall, hidden tiki bar and much more! Atmosphere is on the family restaurant side (dogs and kids a plenty!) but still a fun tropical style environment. Food is better than standard pub fare with exotic flavours and generous serves. Fun for pretty much everyone, so come along and enjoy it with us. Do you live in the Northern or perhaps even the Western suburbs and are interested in catching-up with like minded people? Come along for dinner and meet some friendly people. Our group is informal and open to all. We pay for own food and drinks individually and there is no charge for the organisation of the events. It is a great opportunity to meet others with an emphasis on fun and supporting each other. So whether you choose to come at the start for dinner or later on for drinks, we hope to see you. If something comes up and you can no longer make it, then you can easy change your RSVP to not going. I am looking forward to catching up with those who can make it, Chris

-No walking event on 15 February 2026

On the third Sunday of every month we take a walk in nature. Exercise is so important to all of us and nature has its own unique way of healing. It helps us live in the present, enjoy our surroundings, regain balance and perspective and be pleased with ourselves for going out and doing something. And it costs nothing except time and effort. Our hikes are all over Greater Melbourne and afar. Generally our walks will be 2 to 2.5 hours of moderate grade. Those who want to go more quickly can but generally we try to stay as a group and enjoy the sounds and beauty of nature together. Please read the waiver liability before you RSVP https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mHAz_ShmpWR1wr69gefWEqVzS-zw4bIvI2uGXw4RJ08/edit?usp=sharing WHAT TO BRING Water bottle appropriate clothing (be prepared for hot or cold weather) comfy shoes snacks hat sunscreen camera money for coffee afterwards We look forward to catching up.

🧭 Prioritising What Matters Most In January, we did the **Vision Boarding** workshop 🖼️ Big ideas. Big feelings. Big “ah yes, this is the life” energy. And then… Monday happened. 😐 This workshop is about what comes **after** the vision: 👉 **What do you actually do next when everything feels important and your brain has simply left the chat?** If your to-do list currently: * Stares back at you menacingly 👁️ * Has items from 2019 still “in progress” * Feels like a moral judgement instead of a tool ✨ welcome ✨ We’re taking your existing vision and turning it into **clear priorities and doable tasks**, without shame, hustle, or pretending you’re powered by unlimited spoons. ### 🛠️ What we’ll do (chaos → clarity pipeline) * Use **values** as a decision filter (not a personality test, promise) 🧽 * Narrow things down to **3–5 values that matter *right now*** (everyone else can wait) * Do a quick **life audit** to find where your energy is thriving vs. quietly escaping through the vents 🪫 * Translate all that into: * A short list of priorities that actually deserve your time 🎯 * Habits that won’t immediately start a rebellion 😤 * One-off tasks with a suspiciously high payoff 💥 * Apply the **TOP framework** (Time-pressure × Outcome ÷ Perspiration) so you’re not spinning the “what should I do?” wheel every day 🎡 ### 💬 Plot twist: you will talk to people This is a **social workshop** 🤝 There will be: * Pair chats * Occasional “oh wow same” moments No forced sharing. No spotlight anxiety. You can participate by talking, listening, nodding, or aggressively highlighting your worksheet. All valid. ### 🧠 Who it’s for Neurodivergent folks (ADHD, autistic, AuDHD, gloriously neurospicy 🌶️) who: * Came to the Vision Boarding workshop and want the *actual follow-through (but it's ok if you didn't come to it 😅)* * Have a vision but a to-do list that has become a cry for help 🆘 * Are tired of productivity systems that assume you wake up refreshed and motivated every day ### 📍 The extremely important logistics 🗓 **Sunday 15 February** ⏰ **1.30pm – 3.30pm** 📍 **Sandringham Library** Worksheets provided ✍️ No pressure to overshare 🙅 Low-energy attendance fully respected 😴💚 Same vision. Fewer tabs. Better priorities. Let’s make your to-do list less cursed. 🪄🧠
