Welcome to the Melbourne 40+ gay men support group! My name is Steven Cabral and I am a trained group facilitator and counsellor. The idea for this support group was born out of a gap in community service that I observed where mature aged gay men could share and relate to each other in midlife. I found that most of the services seem geared towards the younger generation and rightly so, but I feel there is a particular experience in middle age and onwards that needs to be honoured, supported, and acknowledged. As we transition into a different phase of life, we are faced with a different set of challenges. It is my belief, from my own experience, that some of these are directly, but not exclusively, tied to our sexuality and that can influence self-actualisation later in life in various ways. Some of us may be carrying trauma from a time where we weren't as readily accepted. This may be seeping through other areas of our life and affecting our beliefs of self-worth and love, completely unbeknownst to us. Some of us may be feeling alone at this phase in our lives because we didn't follow the well worn societal map followed by the majority; such as having kids and partners. As a result, we may feel alone in a peer groups or especially within our own families. Some of us may simply be struggling to navigate this new phase and all that it entails ranging from dating in middle age to bigger questions of how to find meaning and purpose in our lives. Some of us may be dealing with grief. If any of this resonates with you, then I want you to know that you are not alone. My hope for the group is that you feel a sense of belonging and shared experience. That, in of itself, can be extremely healing. The group is not a substitute for therapy, but a safe space to share and connect with others on a similar journey and to find and give inspiration. The group is specifically targeted to gay men who are aged 40+ due to the topics covered. Due to the limitations of the space and the need to keep it intimate, there is a maximum of 10 attendees. Venue: Sussex Neighbourhood House Inc. 7 Prospect St, Pascoe Vale VIC 3044 Date/Times: Once a month on Mondays 7:30pm - 9:00pm \*\* Door will be closed 5 mins after group starts so as not to disrupt the group. Booking a spot in group: If it is fully booked, please ALWAYS go on Wait List - the app automatically gives you a spot as soon as someone drops out. I will reminding RSVP'd attendees to change their RSVPs to *Not Going* if they are no longer going, so that those on the Wait List get their place. If you regularly don't show up and don't let me know - I will be in contact to see if there are any issues. Fees: $10.00 This purely to cover the cost of the venue where group is held as well as Meetup subscription. Guidelines: An opening creed will be read at the beginning of each group session. It is paramount though that ALL attendees feel safe, welcomed and respected at ALL times. The group acknowledges the traditional owners of the land and I'd also like to extend that acknowledgement to those with lived experience of mental health challenges. Thank you so much for reading this far - I look forward to meeting you in person. Remember, it only takes a baby step to start change. Please message me directly with any questions. Steven Cabral.

## **BETA TESTING OPPORTUNITY - Limited to 10 People** We are launching a **3-week Stay-or-Leave Relationship Decision Framework** and need 10 beta testers to go through it first. Comment BETA to express interest and to receive more information. **What you get:** * Complete access to the 3-week decision framework * Structured process to reach a confident stay-or-leave decision * Support from a Registered Counsellor throughout **What we need from you:** * Complete the framework within 3 weeks (February-March) * Provide honest feedback to help refine the content * Optional testimonial if the framework helps you **Who This Framework Is For** This framework is designed for mid-lifers in long-term relationships or marriages who are: · Emotionally exhausted from years of unresolved resentment, quiet disconnection, or carrying the weight of indecision, caught between staying (and slowly disappearing) or leaving (and hurting people you care about) · Chronically conflicted - not occasionally doubting, but stuck in a long-term pattern of "maybe yes, maybe no" that's wearing you down · Deeply caring - you don't want to make a decision you'll regret, and that care is part of what's keeping you stuck **Who This Framework Is NOT For** This framework is not appropriate if: · You have already decided to leave and need logistical or legal guidance (not decision clarity).You are currently experiencing physical violence, threats, coercive control, or stalking from your partner. · Your partner is in active addiction or untreated severe mental illness that makes the relationship unsafe or unpredictable right now. · You are in acute mental health crisis (suicidal ideation, severe depression, panic disorder) and need immediate clinical support before doing deep decision work. **How the 5-Phase Decision Framework Works** This framework takes you from paralysed indecision to a values-aligned choice you can trust—and then shows you how to live it without spiraling back into doubt. **Phase 1 – Why You Can't Decide**: Identify what's driving your indecision, recognize the patterns keeping you stuck, and understand the hidden costs of staying in limbo. **Phase 2 – Diagnosing Your Relationship**: Run objective diagnostics across intimacy, communication, trust, compatibility, and effort to determine whether your relationship can actually meet your needs—not whether you wish it could. **Phase 3 – Mapping the Trade-Offs**: Compare the real costs and gains of staying versus leaving across emotional, financial, logistical, identity, health, and meaning dimensions to see which path aligns with your values. **Phase 4 – Making the Decision**: Synthesize everything you've learned, confront the core question, and choose your path—stay and repair, leave and rebuild, or consciously accept—with a written decision statement that anchors your commitment. **Phase 5 – Living the Decision**: Build certainty through commitment (not the other way around), rebuild self-trust through consistent action, and follow your path-specific 30-day integration plan—whether you're staying or leaving—without reopening the decision.

If you are honest with yourself and with others, you can't help but do well in life. A relationship exists between your own self-respect - how you look at your own personal values - and how successful you are. A person who is honest, outspoken and respects himself will get more done and accomplish his goals far easier than someone who is dishonest, introverted and withdrawn. Now you will learn the underlying reasons why people withdraw from others and life or feel a loss of personal integrity.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
