[Register here](https://www.eventbrite.be/e/extra-income-zero-risk-flexible-hoursbecome-entrepreneur-tickets-1986033469570?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true) Overview Ready to create something real? Let's go. This isn't just another event. It's your starting line. ### You're not looking for a miracle. You're looking for a method. Maybe you have bills to cover. Maybe you want breathing room. Maybe you're tired of saying "no" to things because your paycheck says "not yet." **You don't want to quit your job.** You just want *more* — without blowing up your life. **You want:** * ✅ **Additional income** — real, recurring, scalable * ✅ **Flexible hours** — evenings, weekends, between meetings * ✅ **Entrepreneurial freedom** — without gambling your savings * ✅ **Zero financial risk** — no inventory, no upfront investment, no "buy-in" **That's exactly what this event is about.** ## Join us for one powerful afternoon You'll walk away with more than inspiration. You'll leave with a **blueprint**. A system that works. **No fluff. No hype. No risk.** This is not a "quit your job and pray" pitch. This is a **how-to** event for people who want to **build a real income stream on the side** — without touching their savings. ## What you'll learn **Health** How to take control of your body — because you can't pour from an empty cup. *(Yes, even on a side hustle schedule.)* **Impact** How to change lives the way yours is about to change. One person. One family. One community. **Scalable income** How to stop trading time for money and start building something that grows as fast as you do. *(While you sleep. While you work your day job. While you're with your family.)* ## Why this is different **No risk** → You are not asked to invest money. Zero. Zilch. **No inventory** → Nothing to store, ship, or buy upfront. **No cold selling** → You learn a leverage system that uses people you already know. **No quitting your job** → This is built for flexible hours. Evenings. Weekends. Lunch breaks. > *“The dentist had 40,000 patients. Only 7,000 active. She didn't need new clients. She needed leverage on the ones she already had.”* You already have a circle. You already have trust. You already have *something* to build on. **We show you how to wake up the sleeping gold.** ## What people say about this approach > *“Life before meeting Dorina — and life after.”* She moved to Brussels. Bought her own house young. Showed her circle: *if I can do it, you can do it.* Now she scales that same impact. For people exactly like you. **No risk. Real leverage. Flexible hours.** ## Who this is for ✅ You have a job but want **extra income** ✅ You want **control over your time** — not a second boss ✅ You're open to **serving others** as an entrepreneur ✅ You will **not** write a check to start ✅ You're tired of "side hustles" that feel like another job **Who this is NOT for** ❌ People looking to get rich overnight ❌ People unwilling to learn a system ❌ People who don't show up ## Stop wishing. Start building. **Seats are limited.** So is your time. Don't waste either. Bring yourself. Bring your dreams. Leave with a plan. **See you there. Bring your hunger.** [register here](https://www.eventbrite.be/e/extra-income-zero-risk-flexible-hoursbecome-entrepreneur-tickets-1986033469570?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true)

For those unfamiliar with LeanCoffee: it's a moderated discussion format where we talk about the topics that get voted on by the participants. This makes for varying topics. Overall, Lean Coffee provides a flexible and democratic way for groups to engage in meaningful conversation. We try to start at 19:30 with an intro round and start gathering topics you want to talk about straight after. Coming late is ok, but just know that you typically won't have a say in what gets talked about. When you come for the first time, you’ll usually find the host, Nicky, there early, with a Lean Coffee sign on the table — and often in the company of two dogs.

It's time for the last meetup before the summer. Three interesting and diverse talks! **19:00 – Doors Open** **19:30 – Talks** **🏨** **Cedric De Boom** (*Lighthouse*) — matching short-term rental properties across Airbnb, Booking.com and others, using images. 🌦️ **Ada Canaydin** (*KU Leuven, ELECTA/ESAT*) — how AI is reshaping weather forecasting, and what that means for renewable energy. PhD research on transfer learning across weather and energy domains. 🕵️ **Francesco Piccinelli Casagrande** (MEP Analytics) — To validate the moat of his govtech startup, he developed a knowledge graph of the Epstein files and used embeddings and sentiment analysis to understand behavioural patterns among network members. **21:00 – Networking & Drinks** STUKcafé, Naamsestraat 96, 3000 Leuven **Interested in speaking at a future edition?** Submit your proposal here: [https://sessionize.com/data-science-leuven](https://sessionize.com/data-science-leuven) Or reach out to one of the organizers.

Romantic relationships can be exciting, comforting, confusing, intense, messy, or all of those things at once. Whether it’s communication, trust, attraction, compatibility, conflict, or simply figuring out what we truly want from a partner, navigating relationships rarely comes with a clear instruction manual. Why do some relationships thrive while others slowly fall apart? What actually makes a relationship work in the long run? And how much of love is about effort, timing, chemistry, or choice? Join us for an open and thought-provoking debate as we explore the challenges, expectations, and dynamics of modern romantic relationships. Whether you’re a hopeless romantic, a committed realist, or somewhere in between, come share your perspective! This debate will follow a British Parliamentary format with eight debaters split into four teams of two. Participants who wish to speak are highly encouraged to bring a paper and pen. You are welcome to participate even if you have no prior debating experience. ⚠️ Disclaimer: We aim for debates that are respectful, constructive, and welcoming. • Respect ideas and people: Listen actively, stay quiet while others speak, and debate arguments, not identities or beliefs. • Be concise and civil: Keep questions short and relevant; avoid hostility, hate speech, or discrimination. • Respect boundaries and time: No unwanted advances or suggestive behavior; arrive on time to avoid disrupting the debate. • Follow moderators: They guide the discussion and ensure fairness. Looking forward to seeing you there 😊

Hi everyone, This coffee morning event is @MIR Concept Coffee Store! Saturday, 23 May 2026, from 10:00 - 13:00. MIR opened its doors 4 years ago, right off Place Jourdan. Doriana, the owner, is a super nice host, and is excited to have our group as her café. The café is very beautiful and has great coffee, and many yummy food options. Their Instagram channel: https://www.instagram.com/mirconceptstore/ **The address is:** MIR Concept Coffee Store Rue Gray 4A 1040 Etterbeek *** 1. The **prime time** of the event is **10:30 - 12:30**. That's when most people will be there. 2. When you enter the gallery, it's either on the right-hand side or left-hand side of its hallway, depending which entrance you take. 3. If you intend **to join past 12:00** (high noon), then there is no need to register. Just come and join! 4. **DON'T forget to cancel** if you can't join! 5. **Please, be respectful towards each other during the event. (And after ;))** **As always, feel free to follow us on INSTAGRAM!** [https://instagram.com/weekendmorningcoffee?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==](https://instagram.com/weekendmorningcoffee?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==) **THE STRUCTURE of THE EVENT:** * I will post the event on Saturday/Sunday evening for the following Saturday. * I send out a reminder to everyone on Friday. * There is sometimes a waiting list. * In case RSVP is closed (once there are 10-15 people on the waiting list), I might reopen it on Friday, depending on the number of cancellations in the meantime. * **For everyone on the waiting,** please check your status and messages on Friday evening the latest. I message everyone on the waiting list on Friday. * **Please, move to "not going" AS SOON AS you know that you can't come anymore, that includes everyone who is on the waiting list.** **IMPORTANT:** * **Please, be respectful towards each other during the event.

It happens very often. * If you have any questions then, message me. *** **A MESSAGE FOR NEWCOMERS:** *In the three years of hosting this coffee group, I have met many people who struggle with anxieties when coming to an event for the first time. Sometimes, it took them more than one attempt before being able to join.* *Occasionally, people reach out to me before the event, and I have always been grateful for that as it offers the opportunity to communicate with each other and to find the best and most gentle way for that person to join the group.* *I would like to encourage everyone who struggles with this to contact me before. It would really be too bad if you can't join us, as it mostly gets better the second or third time you come.* *In addition to that, if you arrive and notice any signs of nervousness or fear, you can always let me know right then.* **THANK YOU AND SEE YOU ALL ON Saturday!**

Join Us for a Meditative Forest Walk We warmly invite you to a silent, meditative walk through the forest, where we will move together in stillness for about one hour. This gentle practice helps you reconnect with nature, slow down the mind, and notice the subtle details—both around you and within you. By walking silently, we create space for calm, clarity, and unexpected insights. Details: Date & Time: Saturday 23 May Meeting Point: Herrmann Debroux Metro (exit straight ahead after leaving the platform) Start Time: We begin walking at 16:10 sharp, so please arrive on time if you plan to join. Practical Note: Please wear weather-proof walking shoes, as the forest paths can get a bit muddy when rainy. After the walk, you are warmly welcome to join for a drink at Rouge Cloître. It’s a cosy, creative space to end the evening together if you feel like staying on. If you're in the mood for a quiet inward journey, we would be delighted to walk with you this Friday. For any questions or to let me know you’re coming, feel free to contact me at 0474 60 83 70. Looking forward to sharing this peaceful moment with you.

We spend so much of the week keeping up. With work, with people, with the version of ourselves we're supposed to be. Saturday morning can be different. 🌿 Come and join for an honest conversation and a mindful walk with people who also get it. No pressure to share anything you're not ready to share. You can talk as much or as little as you like; sometimes, just being outside in nature with good people is enough. *This is the first in a series of regular walks for the [Mental Fitness Collective](https://www.meetup.com/mental-fitness-collective/) — a simple, free morning to step outside, move at a gentle pace, and be around people who aren't performing either.* **📍Meeting point:** Stella - Coffee Food Bakery (next to the tram stop Legrand), where you can buy a drink of your choice (optional). 🗓️ **Agenda:** We'll take a relaxed walk through Bois de la Cambre and a full loop around the lake, about 4-5 km, at a pace where conversation feels comfortable. We'll finish at the roundabout at the end of Av. Louise. **Small housekeeping rule:** What happens in the group stays in the group. Whatever is shared between participants during our time together stays between us. It is to make sure this feels like a safe place to be honest. I'll be there to welcome everyone. Come as you are. 🌿 Free to join, RSVP to save your spot! *The event is weather-dependent.* *This walk will run every other Saturday. Each one is standalone, so come whenever it works for you. Join our group, [Mental Fitness Collective](https://www.meetup.com/mental-fitness-collective/), and get notified of our events.*

We'll get in around 4 miles at Three Creeks Metro Parks, primarily natural trails. 17-18 minute miles, no one left behind, and faster walkers are free to lead out. Optional lunch after! If you're joining for hiking all the metro parks, this is the sixth one!

Christians in Tech is a community at the intersection of faith and technology. Our meetups are designed to spark meaningful conversations, promote knowledge sharing, and encourage growth—both in your career and your spiritual walk with God.
