We work with driven business owners, emerging founders, professionals refining what they've built, and individuals rewriting their narrative - choosing growth, ownership, and aligned action over staying comfortable. You are the average of 5 people you surround yourself with - for this reason, our mission is to create a space where ambitious people connect genuinely, learn, and expand alongside other driven individuals. * **What We’re About** You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, so join us — and be part of a community that rises above circumstances and creates opportunities. Inspire and be inspired by those who make things happen. It's a relaxed, organic space to connect with like-minded people and network—genuinely talking, learning from each other, and connecting over shared interests. * **What to Expect** Casual Meetups☕: We gather semi-regularly at a local café to chat about everything from stepping outside your comfort zone to business ideas, creative projects, and building a life aligned with your purpose. It’s relaxed, easy, and welcoming—no need to have anything “figured out.” An Easy-Going Space: We keep things simple and low-pressure. Once everyone arrives, we ease in with some light conversation and naturally break into smaller groups. Networking: Feel free to introduce yourself or let people know what you're working on if you feel like it. And if anyone wants to quickly shout out what they’re working on or looking for before we settle in, go for it—it’s a great way to spark new conversations. * **Host Support** If you’d like a one-on-one chat with me about your business, just tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be floating around and happy to make time for you. **Quick note for the day:** Depending on the weather, we might go for a walk around Wattle Park. Just remember to wear comfy shoes :)

Come along to Andrew's birthday karaoke with dinner at 7pm (both optional) at Customs House Hotel Williamstown. So first part is optional dinner. Table is booked under Andrew Goodwin and my number is 0424453134 if anybody needs to contact me. Here is a copy of the menu. [https://www.customshousehotel.com.au/eat](https://www.customshousehotel.com.au/eat) Then after optional dinner there is optional karaoke. Best to come through a bit before karaoke starts to write down a song or two or more before 9pm to make sure you get in a song or two basically if you're singing. PLEASE NOTE SINGING IS TOTALLY OPTIONAL AND YOU CAN SING AS MANY SONGS AS YOU LIKE (IF ANY) OR JUST CHOOSE TO WATCH ON ALL NIGHT. YOU WILL NOT BE PRESSURED INTO SINGING BASICALLY ANYWAY. IN REALITY WHAT HAPPENS IS SOME PEOPLE WILL NEVER SING BUT SOME OTHERS SEE OTHERS SINGING AND DECIDE TO SING ANYWAY EVEN THOUGH THEY DON'T NORMALLY SING. SO THAT'S JUST THE REALITY OF IT ALL. #### Karaoke hosted by T.D.K.S Entertainment **9pm till late** Let your hair down & be the star! Run by awesome fun loving girls. Over 38,000 songs updated regularly. Event cohosted by Martin Carr. Plenty of parking around and about a 5 minute walk from Williamstown Station and the trains run all night so a good option if you like a few light refreshments. PLEASE NOTE THIS EVENT IS ON MULTIPLE GROUPS.

Mjomii is a sweet and wonderful place with very high quality desserts and teas. It is kind of small, so if it is crowded, there may not be seating for everyone the whole time. If you can take a small break from work and come over and say hi and get a "pick-me-up", that would be great!
