Erfolg ist kein Zufall – wie Kabbala (spirituelle Zahlenlehre) dein Business schneller wachsen lässt. Viele Unternehmerinnen arbeiten hart, investieren Zeit, Energie und Leidenschaft in ihr Business – und trotzdem fühlt sich Wachstum manchmal schwer oder blockiert an. Warum gehen manche Wege scheinbar mühelos auf, während andere trotz großer Anstrengung stagnieren? In diesem Workshop lernst du eine Perspektive kennen, die seit Jahrhunderten genutzt wird, um Menschen, Potenziale und Entscheidungen besser zu verstehen: die Kabbala. Die Kabbala ist ein uraltes Weisheitssystem, das anhand von Zahlen die energetische Struktur eines Menschen sichtbar macht. Sie zeigt, welche Talente in dir angelegt sind, welche Herausforderungen dich wachsen lassen und welche Entscheidungen wirklich zu deinem Weg passen. Gerade im Business kann dieses Wissen ein enormer Hebel sein. Wenn du deine eigene Potenzialarchitektur verstehst, triffst du klarere Entscheidungen, führst authentischer und nutzt deine Energie gezielter. In diesem Workshop erfährst du unter anderem: • warum Erfolg nicht nur Strategie, sondern auch Selbstkenntnis ist • welche Rolle deine Zahlen für dein Business spielen • wie du typische Businessblockaden erkennst und auflöst • warum viele Unternehmerinnen gegen ihre eigene Energie arbeiten • wie du dein Business stärker aus deiner natürlichen Stärke herausführst Dieser Workshop verbindet Business, Persönlichkeitsentwicklung und uraltes Weisheitswissen auf eine inspirierende und zugleich sehr praktische Weise. Wenn du spürst, dass in deinem Business noch mehr Potenzial steckt, als du aktuell lebst, wird dieser Abend dir neue Perspektiven eröffnen. ⸻ **Über die Vortragende** Martina Karina Fischer ist Holistic Health & Leadership Coach und Kabbalistin. In ihrer Arbeit verbindet sie moderne Coachingmethoden mit der jahrtausendealten Weisheit der Kabbala, um Menschen dabei zu unterstützen, ihre Potenziale zu entfalten, innere Klarheit zu gewinnen und ihren eigenen Weg authentisch zu führen. Sie begleitet Unternehmerinnen, Führungskräfte und Menschen in verantwortungsvollen Positionen dabei, ihre innere Architektur zu verstehen und daraus bewusst Entscheidungen für Business und Leben zu treffen, die zu langfristigem Erfolg führen.

This is a joint meetup with [DDD-Vienna](https://www.meetup.com/ddd-vienna/) **Agenda** 🕕 **18:00** – Doors open at TechTalk 🕡 **18:15** – Intro & Talk 🗣️ 🕗 **19:20** – Networking, 🍕Food & 🍻Drinks sponsored by [TechTalk](https://techtalk.at/) 🎉 **Domain-Driven Transformation—Modularizing and Modernizing Legacy Software** Starting a new project from scratch with a clean slate is one thing; tackling legacy systems with chaotic architectures is another. Many teams inherit systems described as “Monoliths” or “Big Balls of Mud,” and this talk focuses on how to bring order to such challenges. Participants will learn how to evaluate their current systems and identify steps to introduce—or restore—structure. Using Collaborative Modeling, attendees will gain actionable insights to design a clear and future-ready architecture. The talk will equip participants with practical strategies to address common challenges, such as BBOM architecture, anemic domain models, and disorganized teams. By the end of the session, attendees will have a catalog of proven refactorings, actionable heuristics, and concrete tools to immediately evolve their own projects. **About Henning Schwentner:** Henning loves programming in high quality. He lives this passion as coder, coach, and consultant at WPS – Workplace Solutions. There he helps teams to structure their monoliths or to build new systems from the beginning with a sustainable architecture. Microservices or self-contained systems are often the result. Henning is author of \*Domain Storytelling\* (Addison-Wesley, 2022), \*Domain-Driven Transformation\* (O’Reilly, 2026), and the [www.LeasingNinja.io](https://www.LeasingNinja.io).

Things can look good on paper — steady work, progress, stability — and still feel strangely flat on the inside. No crisis. No breakdown. Just a quiet question: *Is this it?* This workshop is for people who are functioning well, but sense that something doesn’t fully line up. Together, we’ll explore what psychologists call the ***success–fulfillment gap***: the difference between external success and inner experience. Through a few guided reflection exercises, you’ll learn how to better distinguish these signals in your own life — **not to make big decisions**, but to gain clarity. No coaching. No therapy. No pressure to change anything. Just a thoughtful space to reflect and recalibrate. 🌱 **What to expect 🧭** * A short, accessible introduction to the **success–fulfillment gap** * Simple, guided reflection exercises * A calm, structured space to think and discuss in pairs You’ll leave with a clearer sense of how **success and fulfillment show up differently** in your own experience. **Who should attend 👥** This workshop is for you if: * you’re working or building something and generally doing “okay” * you value reflection, but don’t want therapy or motivation talks * you’ve had moments of thinking “*Is this really it?*” — without being in crisis * you’re curious about purpose, clarity, and inner orientation You don’t need to feel successful, stuck, or lost to attend — just open to reflection. **Logistics 🗓️** * **Cost**: Free of charge * **Where**: Impact Hub Vienna, [Lindengasse 56, 1070 Wien](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x476d078cbc5cf79b:0x3e9197850789a772?sa=X&ved=1t:8290&ictx=111) * **When: Thursday, April 16th, 2026, 18:00 CET** * **Duration**: 90 minutes ⚠️ **Limited to 14 participants** to keep the space focused and personal.

That strategy creates results—but it also creates blind spots. Because real growth doesn’t come from eliminating the “bad.” It comes from integrating the full spectrum. **Beyond good and bad is where the magic happens.** Polarity invites a different way of operating: not choosing one side, but expanding your capacity to hold both. Confidence and doubt. Control and surrender. Success and failure. When you stop rejecting parts of your experience, you unlock a deeper level of clarity, resilience, and creative power. At this LibaTea meetup, we explore what it means to move beyond binary thinking and into wholeness—where nothing needs to be suppressed, and everything can be used. This is not a motivational talk. It is a room of high-performing expats and entrepreneurs exploring a more complete way to think, lead, and live. Expect sharp conversations, honest perspectives, and people who are ready to go deeper. **You will explore:** * Why high performers often reject parts of themselves that actually drive growth * The hidden cost of labeling experiences as purely “good” or “bad” * How integrating the full spectrum increases clarity, adaptability, and performance * How polarity thinking expands leadership, relationships, and decision-making * This meetup is for founders, creators, investors, executives, and ambitious professionals in Vienna who want to expand beyond conventional thinking and operate with more depth, awareness, and impact. **Event flow (ca 90 minutes):** * Arrival & welcome * Breath, tea orders * Guided reflection rounds * Closing integration **About LibaTea** LibaTea is a community exploring liberation through reflection, conversation, and community. We host weekly tea circles and monthly masterminds that bring together thoughtful people interested in personal growth, wellbeing, and meaningful connection. **Why tea?** Tea rituals have been used for centuries to create presence and connection. By slowing down and sharing tea together, we create a simple but powerful setting for reflection, insight, and real connection.

Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships? Are you 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! This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
