Observability Sidequests, AI prompt workflows and debugging Kubernetes Clusters
Join us for presentations, snacks, and discussion! This time around we have an agenda of monitoring topics on the complete opposite spectrum. We'll talk about pure hobbyist monitoring topics, AI prompt based workflows and debugging your production Kubernetes clusters when they are on fire.
**Special thanks to Nokia and Mark Prosser for hosting us at their downtown office.**
**Agenda:**
6:00-6:15 PM: Arrivals and introductions
6:15-6:35 PM: Observability Sidequests
6:35-6:40 PM: Q&A
6:40-7:10 PM: Uh, is this a good idea? Examining the viability of reusable AI prompt-based workflows for developers
7:10-7:15 PM: Q&A
7:15-7:35 PM: Debugging your Kubernetes Cluster when it's on fire.
7:35-7:40 PM: Q&A
7:40-8:00 PM: Q&A, networking and wrap up
**Talk 1: Observability Sidequests! - Eldin from Grafana**
Eldin will demo some of his personal use dashboards, like monitoring his 3D printer and household CO2 and temperature sensors.
**Eldin** helps people make sense of their systems through better observability. He's spent years in support, services, and advisory roles, so he knows what it really takes to make tech work in the real world. These days, he's all about helping teams solve modern observability challenges and systems that actually make life easier.
**Talk 2: Uh, is this a good idea? Examining the viability of reusable AI prompt-based workflows for developers - Adriana - Dynatrace**
It’s tempting to throw AI onto everything we do these days. But do we have to?
Can we be lazy enough to tell our AI assistant to set up our local developer tooling for us with just some well-constructed prompts, without having to rely on our platform engineering friends?
Can we achieve the Star Trek dream of saying, “Computer, run level 10 diagnostic.” and the computer would just know? And could it be repeatable and shareable?
This talk explores the developer's journey of creating a natural-language, reusable prompt-based workflow with Block's Codename Goose to provision a local development environment.
Attendees will learn about:
\* MCP and Goose
\* The target demo workflow
\* Challenges faced, and key takeaways
Attendees will also come away with an understanding of the possibilities and limits of creating reusable prompt-based workflows, answering the question: can developers self-provision tools using natural language? And just because they CAN, SHOULD THEY?
**Adriana Villela** is a blogger, host of the Geeking Out podcast, CNCF Ambassador, and maintainer of the OpenTelemetry End User SIG. By day, she focuses on Observability and OpenTelemetry, as a Principal Developer Advocate at Dynatrace. By night, she climbs walls. She also loves capybaras, because they make her happy.
**Talk 3: Debugging your Kubernetes Cluster when it's on fire - Nikola Grcevski - Grafana**
Imagine you have a Kubernetes cluster that’s hosting some number of services, perhaps these services are written in different programming languages, perhaps there are some databases in the cluster too. Now, imagine that this cluster is intermittently experiencing errors and it’s not easy to tell what’s going on.
In this talk I will show you how you can add detailed telemetry immediately to a problematic production environment cluster, without any changes to your existing cluster configuration or applications, with the new OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation project. We’ll show you how you’ll be able to get insights into what’s wrong with your cluster or services, by leveraging on-demand distributed traces and connectivity graphs, even if it’s the first time you have heard the term OpenTelemetry.
**Nikola Grcevski** has worked as a software engineer for more than 20 years, mostly in the field of compilers, managed runtimes and performance optimization. Most recently he's working on low level application instrumentation with eBPF at Grafana Labs.
The Coach's Money Mindset Reset
**Click the link below to reserve your spot:**

Why Your Brain Is Chemically Rewarding You For Staying Stuck Below Your True Earning Potential
Most coaches hitting the almost-six-figure ceiling aren't struggling with their marketing or offer.
They're trapped by something far more powerful - a deep-seated reality addiction around money and success.
You've built a solid coaching business.
You have testimonials that prove your value.
Your clients get real results.
Yet somehow, consistent $10K+ months remain frustratingly out of reach.
Every time you get close to breaking through, something happens:
* You discount your rates when a potential client hesitates
* You overdeliver to justify your prices
* You feel a nagging discomfort when thinking about charging more
* You work harder instead of leveraging what's already working
The problem isn't your coaching ability. It's the unconscious stories you believe about wealth that create unnecessary friction in your business growth.
What "Reality Addiction" Is Costing You
Reality addiction is the unconscious belief that your current financial ceiling is "just how things are" for coaches like you.
It's the voice that whispers:
*"Making more means working more."*
*"If I charge premium rates, I'll price out the people who need me."*
*"Successful coaches are just better at selling than I am."*
These limiting beliefs aren't just in your head — they're actively sabotaging your business decisions, creating a cycle where:
* You undercharge for your services
* You overwork to compensate
* You feel resentful about the imbalance
* You burn out before reaching your goals
I know because I was stuck in the same cycle. Making $8K months but unable to break through to consistent five-figure months until I addressed my reality addiction around wealth and success.
What You'll Discover in This Free Workshop
Once you join you'll feel the tension in your chest release as you finally understand why making money has felt so difficult.
During our 60-minute session, you'll experience:
\- The exact moment you recognize the invisible reality addiction that's been holding your income back—and feel immediate relief knowing it's not your fault
\- A profound shift as you see other successful coaches breaking through the same blocks that have kept you stuck
\- The liberating feeling of having a clear path forward instead of pushing that boulder uphill every day
\- The quiet confidence that comes from knowing exactly which stories to release so you can finally command premium rates without the guilt
When you apply the framework I'll share, you'll wake up feeling excited about your business again instead of exhausted by it.

“For the first time in my life, I felt valued and loved. This work changed everything.”
\- Lynn D
Security Coach

“He worked on my fear of success, which was blocking me from getting more clients. I felt a huge sense of relief the very next day and started getting inquiries about my services.”
\- Nisreen M
Reiki Master/Teacher

### Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema
### Doors at 6:30 pm
### Event starts at 7:00pm
Join MAPS Canada and friends in Toronto on February, 2026 to explore the use of ibogaine in the context of PTSD.
There will be a free screening of the powerful film In Waves and War followed by insightful speakers and audience questions.
Don't miss this chance to learn, reflect, and connect with others interested in healing journeys!
Guest speakers **Gordon Hurley** and **Jonathan Dickinson** will share their personal experiences of providing and receiving this treatment, offering first-hand perspectives on care, recovery, and resilience.
**Speakers:**
***Jonathan Dickinson*** is the Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of [Ambio Life Sciences](https://www.ambio.life/ "https://www.ambio.life"). One of the world’s leading experts on ibogaine, Jonathan brings over 15 years of experience in clinical care, traditional practice, and psychedelic research to his leadership at Ambio. A Mexico-licensed psychologist and former Executive Director of the Global Ibogaine Therapy Alliance. At Ambio, he leads strategy, research, and innovation – advancing a globally scalable model of care that bridges tradition, science, and integrity.
**Gordon Hurley** served nearly 15 years in the Canadian Armed Forces, including time in special operations as an Operator and Joint Terminal Attack Controller. After his medical release in 2021, he co-founded *All The Way Factory Inc.* with his wife and became deeply involved in veteran mental health advocacy. Gordon serves on the board of the Canadian Special Operations Regiment Association and as Head of Engagement for Heroic Hearts Canada, championing veteran access to psychedelic-assisted therapy. He is also an instructor for the MAPS Canada School of Psychedelics course: *[Cannabis and Psychedelics in Canada: Mechanisms of Action, Clinical Research and Therapeutic Applications](https://www.schoolofpsychedelics.org/courses/mechanismsofaction "https://www.schoolofpsychedelics.org/courses/mechanismsofaction")*.
The evening also includes a **free screening of *In Waves and War*** — a powerful documentary featuring veterans and families navigating trauma, healing, and hope through psychedelic-assisted therapy.
**About the film:**
Highly decorated Navy SEAL Marcus Capone returns from Afghanistan and attempts to readjust to civilian life. But years of unprecedented warfare have left Marcus with treatment-defiant PTSD, traumatic brain injuries, and severe depression beyond what current government treatment options can effectively address. Fearing for Marcus' life, his wife, Amber, finds hope in a ground breaking therapy combining two powerful psychedelics unapproved for use in the U.S., but with seemingly limitless applications. Inspired by Marcus' remarkable recovery but still confronted with the alarming rate of veteran suicide in their community, Marcus and Amber embark on a new mission: providing access to this lifeline. Alongside intimate interviews, captivating animation, and first-of-its-kind research at Stanford's Brain Stimulation Lab, In Waves and War, from Jon Shenk and Bonni Cohen (Athlete A, An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power), is the emotional, inspiring odyssey of three American heroes as they overcome the after effects of war and rediscover their humanity.
**Tickets prices:**
Ticket options include donation-based pricing for students, seniors, and low-income attendees, and free admission for veterans and first responders.

**Each journey you will calm your nervous system, ground, centre and open up your heart in real time. Allow yourself to move through stagnant energies in a conscious and loving way, to get your vital life force energy flowing with grace.**

We will engage in particular kriya's, asana's, pranayama's, bhanda's (body locks), mantras and meditative techniques to support in awakening your kundalini in a graceful way & mastering your nervous system, mind, breath and your inner world.
This is an integrative experience first and foremost, so we take our time to move forward with a gentle potency. You are encouraged and celebrated to move at your own pace.

Free In-Person Meeting: Healing from Trauma and Past Betrayals
This is a free, in person meeting.
Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!

Want to Truly Heal from Emotional Trauma?
Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few.
How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again.
So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that.

Spa for Your Soul: A Sacred Pause for Renewal and Wholeness
Join us at **Unity of Columbus** for *Spa for Your Soul*, a restorative and inspiring workshop designed to nourish your spirit, awaken your inner wisdom, and reconnect you with the sacred rhythm of life.
Drawing from the rich spiritual insights of **Matthew Fox** and the timeless theological wisdom of **Thomas Aquinas**, this workshop invites participants into a deeper experience of spirituality rooted in compassion, creativity, and divine presence. Together, we will explore spirituality not as something distant or abstract, but as a lived, embodied experience—one that honors joy, justice, beauty, and the inherent goodness of creation.
Through guided reflection, gentle spiritual practices, discussion, and contemplative moments, *Spa for Your Soul* offers a sacred space to release stress, renew clarity, and remember the divine spark within. This is an opportunity to pause, breathe, and tend lovingly to your soul—much like a spa experience, but for your inner life.
Whether you are seeking spiritual refreshment, deeper understanding, or simply a peaceful space to be present, this workshop welcomes you exactly as you are.
**Come, rest, reflect, and renew—your soul deserves it.**
Free In-Person Events: How to Let Go of the Past and Move Forward
The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience.
And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree.
In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again.
Examples of painful experiences include:
* A broken relationship or divorce.
* Death or loss of a loved one.
* Death of a pet.
* A sudden shock or bad news.
* A betrayal.
* Being part of an abusive relationship.
* A bad injustice.
* Loss of a job, position or business.
* A grave illness or injury.
The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way.
