What Does Happiness Really Mean? — A Curated Dinner Conversation (50% off food)
**Meet2Click Curated Conversations**
Each Meet2Click Curated Conversation dinner centres around a carefully chosen topic or shared interest, designed to spark thoughtful conversation and meaningful connection.
Modern life is often driven by success, productivity, and constant achievement — yet we rarely pause to ask a deeper question:
**What does happiness really mean?**
Many of us equate happiness with achievement, status, or temporary pleasure.
But research suggests happiness is something more intentional — built through meaning, satisfaction, and connection.
If we don’t define it consciously, we risk chasing the wrong version of it.
At this small-group dinner experience, we will explore:
• Can happiness be built?
• Does success actually make us happy?
• Is happiness more about meaning or enjoyment?
Inspired by the happiness framework developed by Harvard professor and bestselling author Arthur Brooks, guests will receive a short overview of his key ideas two days before the event to reflect on ahead of our discussion.
This is not a debate.
It is not a lecture.
It’s a relaxed, friendly conversation around the table with curious, open-minded people.
If you value thoughtful conversation and meaningful connection, join us for an evening dedicated to exploring what happiness truly means — and whether we are living in alignment with it.
**Launch Season Benefit**
During our initial Meet2Click dinners, guests will enjoy **up to 50% off food** at the restaurant.
This introductory benefit is available for a limited launch period.
Food and drinks are paid individually, directly with the restaurant.

The Tribalheart Sacred Lounge
Please note- New venue
An evening of nourishment for the heart and soul in a sacred haven where we can enjoy, express and feast our senses together.
We will do practices from a medley of modalities that will include Tantra, Meditation, Breathwork, and Bioenergetics. Occasionally we will spice things up and safely explore more shadow themes of conscious kink
Connecting with a range of feelings present in the body and heart, we will release and move energy where needed so we can access the medicine of pleasure in the body, love in the heart and the boundlessness and interconnectedness of our Spirit.
We will always start by tuning in to ourselves and the unique energy of the group on the night. We will learn how to acknowledge and set boundaries for ourselves authentic for each group. From here we can explore connections with others using a variety of guided meditations that invite us on a sensory journey to experience touch, sound, smell, sight and taste. You can participate as much or as little as you feel in each exercise and are always encouraged to honour yourself and your boundaries in the moment.
As with all Tribalheart events we will make space to stretch, move and dance.
The event is open to all levels of experience in Tantra or other conscious connection groups.
We wish to create a space where we can deep dive playfully together, moving through any fears around connection and being seen. This is a clothed event unless otherwise specified but we encourage you to bare your heart and let it shine with an intention and generosity to share your unique self at a level you are comfortable with.
Ceremonial grade Cacao will be served, with gentle aphrodisiacs such like Maca, Ashwagandha, and Damiana. Any foods or beverages served for the main rituals will be organic and high quality.
It is a guided group meditation, so no chit-chatting after the event starts.
Doors open 7:20pm, event starts 7:45pm sharp. No entry after 7:45pm.
Wear loose comfortable clothes.

Knowing Who You Can Trust
Your survival depends on knowing who you can rely on. But how can you tell who your real friends are? How can you determine if a person will help make a joint venture successful?
Is there a way to predict behavior? Yes. There are fundamental elements to human behavior. When you know them you have insight into your fellow man, and just by observing how people act, you will know *everything* about them.
#### On this lecture you will learn:
* The important role of trust in human relationships.
* The Hubbard Chart of Human Evaluation—the tool to know true character and predict what people will do.
* How to evaluate others accurately and guarantee a more certain future for yourself and those you care about.
With the knowledge you learn on this course, you will have tools to know who you can trust and who you can depend on.
*“Trustworthiness is a highly esteemed commodity. When one has it, one is considered valuable. When one has lost it, one may be considered worthless.”*
*—L. Ron Hubbard*

Please dress appropriately for weather and terrain conditions.
Only wear good sturdy shoes, with ankle support, and carry a bottle of water and necessary medication. You need to be moderately fit for this walk and able to walk for at least 8 miles. This walk is suitable for the average experienced hill walker. Expect some hills. Do not attend this walk if you do not fit that description or if you have a medical condition (especially heart and/or lung conditions) that may impact upon your capability of completing the walk.
These walks are city walks and countryside walks where all the usual risks of injury during such walks apply resulting from interactions with road traffic, joggers, cyclists, e-scooters,other members of the public, animals (farm, domestic and wild), plants (allergic reactions), uneven surfaces, including portruding tree roots and potholes and there may be low overhanging branches.

Who's Writing the AI Rules—And Does It Matter?
AI is changing everything — how we work, how decisions get made, and who's held accountable when things go wrong. But who's actually writing the rules?
The EU has already moved fast with its landmark AI Act. The UK is taking a different path — more flexible, more "wait and see". And the US? Well, the White House has just dropped a new legislative framework that's already drawing fire for its lack of rigour.
Join our small RegTech Meetup (max 10 attendees) for a closer look at what these three very different approaches mean in practice — for tech providers, for consumers and for commercial businesses trying to stay on top of the risks and opportunities.
Whether you're a tech founder navigating compliance, a professional wondering how AI affects your industry, or simply someone who wants to understand the world today's kids are growing up in — this session is for you.
We'll cover:
* What the EU AI Act actually says (and what it means)
* Why the UK chose a different road
* What's happening in the US — and why it matters globally
* Where these paths might converge, clash, or leave dangerous gaps.
Come ready to ask questions, share your perspective, and help shape what we explore next.
Notes:
1. As per our group's guidelines, we will ask for a small £5 donation on the day to help keep things running.
2. If you have any difficulty finding the venue or have questions beforehand please contact our WhatsApp group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KpXlPokyOXWH4Nol0NDdzX?mode=hqctcli
3. We're grateful to Alla Salute for kindly hosting us. Please do buy yourself a coffee, drink or something to eat while you're there — it's a lovely spot and supporting the venue is a great way to say thank you for having us.
The Right to Privacy - Philosophy Talk
*Is privacy a fundamental human right?*
*Should privacy ever be sacrificed for security?*
*How does surveillance change how we behave?*
*Is privacy necessary for democracy?*
This time we will be discussing the **right to privacy** in the relative privacy of an upstairs room of a North London pub! No walk this time (due to a broken toe)! Instead we will head indoors and experiment with a different format - a talk and discussion session. Meet at 2pm at the Star of Kings pub in King's Cross, upstairs in the green room.
If you want to do some reading on the subject I recommend **The Right to Oblivion** by Lowry Pressly:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Right-Oblivion-Privacy-Good-Life/dp/067430490X
A YouTube video on the same book by Unsolicited Advice.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5sx5nGNIyc
If you have any other recommendations on the subject feel free to post in the commends below.
There will be a short presentation then group discussions. This group encourages friendly, constructive conversations rather than confrontational debates; so give everyone space to talk, be respectful and actively listen to others. It's not about 'winning' a debate but about expressing your opinion and learning about other people's views.
Admission £5, if you are a student, unemployed or retired then you can attend for free. You can pay in cash or card on the walk or online with this link:

CBusData: The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again.
We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all.
Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
American Sign Language Beginners Meetup Group
We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able!
Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!
Data & Analytics Wednesday - The Data-Driven Brand
**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception**
Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory.
For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy.
She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps).
Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way.
**About Our Speaker**
Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

How LLMs Like ChatGPT Actually Work and How to Build With Them
**First meetup of the Columbus AI Engineering group.**
We’ll kick things off with a practical, beginner-friendly discussion on:
**How LLMs like ChatGPT actually work — and how to build real applications with them.**
We’ll cover:
* what’s actually happening under the hood (at a high level)
* why LLMs behave the way they do (hallucinations, prompt sensitivity, etc.)
* how people are building real systems with them today
* where things break in practice
This will be a **short, informal talk (\~15–20 min)** followed by open discussion and Q&A.
Whether you’re an engineer, builder, or just curious about how modern AI systems work, you’re welcome to join.
No slides, no fluff — just real conversation about real systems.
We’ll hang out afterward and get to know each other.
