The Monthly Reset: Walk, Reflect, Connect
Instagram: @findyourtribemelb
Take a pause from the hustle and join us for **The Monthly Reset** \- a space for driven and ambitious people to reflect on the past month\, set fresh goals\, and connect with other growth\-minded individuals\.
Thereās something powerful about sharing your reflections and intentions with other growth-minded individuals. When you're surrounded by people who value progress, purpose, and self-awareness, it creates a natural sounding board for ideas, clarity, and encouragement. These kinds of conversations can help you see things differently, feel more supported, and stay aligned with the goals that truly matter to you.
šæ**MEETING POINT**
Let's meet outside Botanic Gardens Visitor Centre at 2:00pm. Anyone who would like to grab a coffee can do so, then at 2:15pm, we'll take a walk around the Tan.
š¤**CONNECTION ACTIVITY**
During the walk, youāll be invited to participate in structured conversations with different partners as we rotate every 15ish minutes.
Weāll provide reflection prompts to guide your discussions on:
* What worked well this past month
* What challenged you or stretched your limits
* Intentions or goals for the month ahead
* What success and balance look like for you
This is a space to connect authentically, think intentionally, and feel supported by others who care about growth and alignment - both professionally and personally.
š**NEW HERE?**
Welcome! Find Your Tribe Melbourne is a community mostly around 25-40s who are passionate about connection, purpose, and personal development. Weāre open-minded, respectful, and always excited to welcome new faces. Whether you come solo or with a friend, weāll make sure you feel included and supported.
Pushing outside your comfort zone can be toughābut it's where growth and friendship begin. š±
