🔥When two cultures collide, love can feel chaotic—yet that’s exactly where the magic begins. 💡Cross-cultural love brings beauty, confusion, humor, and growth into one powerful experience. In this MOTIVATE Community Sunday webinar, Lili Record, a certified developmental psychology, relationship, and neuroscience coach, explores how cultural habits, communication styles, and unspoken expectations shape daily interactions between partners from different backgrounds. This talk uncovers why misunderstandings happen so often, what they truly mean beneath the surface, and how couples can turn these “mini collisions” into deeper understanding. Participants will learn how to decode cultural signals, build a shared “third culture,” and turn tension into teamwork. If you’re seeking clarity, connection, and practical tools for thriving in a cross-cultural relationship, this session will show you how chaos becomes clarity—and how love becomes something bigger than both of you. 🗓️Join us on December 21st for Cross-cultural Love: When Chaos Meets Magic with Lili Record, where we explore how cultural differences can transform relationships into something uniquely resilient and deeply meaningful. 🧩 Key Points / Takeaways for the Audience ✅ Misunderstandings aren’t signs of incompatibility—they’re cultural signals. Learn how pausing, asking, and decoding meaning behind habits can turn chaos into clarity. ✅ Cross-cultural love thrives when you build a “third culture” together. Create a shared style of communication, connection, and problem-solving that supports both partners. 🌟 Additional Key Points / Benefits 🚀Chaos doesn’t mean something is wrong—it means two cultures are talking. Misunderstandings are predictable and fixable when you know what’s cultural vs. personal. 🚀Curiosity beats assumptions every time. A simple “What does that mean for you?” can dissolve tension and deepen connection instantly. 🚀Connection grows when you translate feelings, not just words. Learn how cross-cultural couples can check meaning, slow emotional reactions, and express needs clearly. 🚀Your differences can become strengths. Distinct values, habits, and emotional rhythms can balance each other beautifully when used intentionally. 🚀Magic isn’t found in perfection—it’s found in teamwork. Co-create a “third culture” that fits both of you, creating a relationship that is resilient, expansive, and deeply rewarding. 🎤 **ABOUT THE SPEAKER** Meet Lili Record, a former architect turned multicultural family and parenting coach, global citizen, and seasoned “lost-in-translation” navigator. After living in more than 30 countries and speaking four languages, she has mastered the art of turning cross-cultural confusion into clarity, connection, and growth. Even with all that experience, Lili still finds moments of miscommunication in her own relationship—which is exactly what makes her guidance so real, human, and deeply relatable. She brings wisdom from lived experience, grounded psychology, and a touch of humour to help couples laugh, love, and truly thrive across cultures. At MOTIVATE Community, we like to think of Lili as a relationship GPS: she won’t stop you from exploring unexpected detours, but she’ll make sure you never stay stuck at Recalculating. **CONTACT DETAILS** 👉**Email:** hello@yinyangology.com 👉**Wechat ID:** YYyinyangology 👉**Linkedin:** https://www.linkedin.com/in/lilirecord 👉**Website:** www.yinyangology.com ⏰𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 **21**, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 (𝗦𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆), 𝟭.𝟱 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝗿 5:00 PM GMT+8 China 7:00 PM GMT+10 Brisbane 8:00 PM GMT+11 Sydney/Canberra 5:00 AM GMT-4 New York 10:00 AM GMT+1 Barcelona 📌For first-time attendees please scan the QR code on the flyer or click the following link to register and become part of our enriching live discussion, all at no cost: https://adriancahill.agilecrm.com/forms/6002900926529536 📌Zoom Link: https://zoom.us/j/86301571361 Log-in: 86301571361 Password: #motivate Don’t miss it.

Join us as we get together for an Oscar Watch film that’s also one of the year’s best: MARTY SUPREME! Timothee Chalamet delivers a “career-best performance” in this film that follows a young man with a dream no one respects, who goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness. Marty Supreme has already been named a Top 10 Film of the Year by IndieWire, Vulture, the BBC, Entertainment Weekly, Vanity Fair, the National Board of Review and the American Film Institute and is well on its way to being one of the most nominated films at this year’s Oscars! Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: This ping pong drama is set in New York City during the 1950s where table tennis star Marty goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness.

The film is directed (and co-written) by Josh Safdie and stars Timothée Chalamet, Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A'zion, Kevin O'Leary, Tyler Okonma, Abel Ferrara and Fran Drescher. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYSHiII4D-Y EARLY BUZZ & REVIEWS: The film premiered to “overwhelmingly positive” reviews at this year’s New York Film Festival! Timothee Chalamet immediately shot to the top of the Best Actor race with a “career best performance” in a film described as an “awe inspiring cinematic tour-de-force!” Others call it, “an absolute blast of adrenaline” and a “pure delight,” “that soars from start to finish!” The film is earning a Certified Fresh 96% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where Variety calls it, “one of the year’s few masterpieces!” Slash Film declares, “This is unquestionably the best performance of Timothée Chalamet's career, and Marty Supreme is one of the best movies of the year. I can't wait to watch it again!” PLAN: We’ll plan for a 4pm-ish showing and will meet inside the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime! Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but be sure to mention you're with the Movie Group for admission and concession discounts! Complete details will be confirmed and announced as the date gets closer.

Seating is limited so separate RSVP required for the Brunch portion of this event. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Join us as we get the New Year started with one of the best films of the year: THE SECRET AGENT! This political thriller from Brazil is set in 1977 where a man flees from a mysterious past and returns to his hometown but soon finds the city is far from being the refuge he seeks. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: In 1977, a former professor flees from a mysterious past and returns to his hometown of Recife in search of peace. He soon realizes that the city is far from being the refuge he seeks. The film stars Wagner Moura, Carlos Francisco, Tânia Maria, Robério Diógenes, Maria Fernanda Cândido, Gabriel Leone and Udo Kier in his final film role. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UfrzDKrhEc BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The Secret Agent was the most awarded film at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival where it won Best Actor for Wagner Moura, Best Director for Mendonça Filho, the Art House Cinema Award and the FIPRESCI Prize. At this year’s Golden Globes, it became Brazil’s first film ever to be nominated for Best Film (Drama)! It also received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Foreign Film, a Best Actor nomination for Wagner Moura and was selected as Brazil’s entry for Best International Film at this year’s Academy Awards. The film is receiving an incredible 99% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics say, its “compelling script, impeccable acting, and striking 1970s aesthetic” make it “impossible to look away!” Critics say The Secret Agent is “one of the few standout movies of the year” and the Chicago Tribune calls it a “masterpiece of a film” and “the best film of the year!” PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St).

Every week we get together and work technical skills and live pressure testing. \ Almost all of the instructors have been in everything from altercations in the real world to the ring and some still compete in the cage. \ If you want to take your skills up, improve your confidence, gain self defense skills, get in better shape, test yourself or just want to kill some time and possibly get hit a bit come on down. \ We will be located at 3923 N High St, Columbus, OH 43214 inside the whetstone rec in the auditorium, center upstairs in classroom B or outside in the grass between the playground and horseshoe area. our instructors are normally in a black and red art of fighting shirt \ if you can not find us call or text me at 6143570295 Saturday 1pm Wednesday 5:30pm From Age 16 and up. attendees under the age of 18 must have a guardian with them. \ \ You must have a free leisure card for the rec center and must be registered for our class specifically .\ Wear workout clothing \ Bring a MOUTHPIECE! \ WE HAVE GLOVES. \ Hope to see you soon :-).\ We are run off of donations. \ let me know if you have any questions :)
