True Crime

**I want to ask you something personal.** **When did you last have a conversation — a real one — where you didn’t have to perform being okay?** **Not with your colleagues. Not with your family who worry about you. Not on a first date where you’re still deciding how much to reveal.** **Just an honest conversation. About where you actually are. What you actually want. What’s quietly weighing on you that you haven’t found the right moment — or the right person — to say out loud yet.** **I ask because I think a lot of us are carrying more than we let on.** **The career that pays the bills but costs you something you can’t quite name. The love life that hasn’t gone the way you hoped, no matter how hard you’ve tried. The Sunday evening feeling that the week ahead is just more of the same — and the life you actually wanted is somehow still waiting somewhere in the future.** **You’re not broken. You’re not behind. You’re just human. And you deserve a space to actually say that.** **That’s what this evening is.** **I’m Victoria. Many of you know me from our dinners, breakfasts, and walks over the years.** **What you may not know is everything I’ve walked through and the rollercoaster rides I’ve been on to get here.** **On the professional front, I’ve spent years in HR and coaching holding space for people through retrenchments, burnout, and career crossroads. I’ve coached thousands of professionals through some of the most uncertain chapters of their lives.** **I run my own business. I’ve organised dating events for singles courageous enough to open their hearts again. I’ve sat across from so many people who came to me feeling lost — and left with something shifting inside them.** **And through all of it, I’m on my own journey. Still am.** **I’ve made a lot of pivots in my life and I’ll share with you more tonight — not because I have it all figured out, but because I think something in my story might speak to something in yours.** **Many of you have asked me over the years why I run these gatherings the way I do. No sponsors. No agenda. No pitch. I just love bringing people together. I’m happy to help. I’m simply happy to be there for you. That’s always been enough for me.** **You know those walks we do — where I’m playing tour guide, making us walk, pointing things out? I go home after those sessions genuinely happy. Full. That feeling of having connected people, having created something real out of just a few hours together — I simply enjoy it.** **This evening is no different. Just more intentional. More intimate.** **And maybe — for some of you — more timely.** **We’ll talk about the things we usually don’t.** **The rat race and whether you’re running toward something or just running. What it would mean to one day own your time completely. Love and the courage it takes to keep your heart open after disappointment. Starting over — in career, in relationships, in the quiet belief that the best chapters are still ahead.** **No agenda. No slides. No performance.** **Just a handful of us in a room being brave enough to be real with each other and ourselves.** **The evening will be held in a quiet, private meeting room — a proper space for conversations like this. No background noise, no interruptions, no one rushing you along. Just the kind of unhurried environment that a reflection this important actually deserves.** **A quick note on RSVPs — like many of you know, our Meetup events tend to get a lot of sign-ups and not everyone makes it on the night. Because this room has limited seats and I want every chair filled with someone who genuinely wants to be here, I’m doing this one a little differently.** **If you haven’t got my number, please message me directly to receive my contact number and confirm your attendance. Your spot is only reserved once you’ve confirmed with me personally and not just on meetup. It wouldn’t feel right to hold a seat for someone who isn’t coming when there may be someone else who needs this evening far more.** **First come, first seated — and I genuinely hope that’s you. 🤍** **This is not a seminar. Not a networking event. Not a motivational talk.** **Just people connecting with people. People who are honest enough with themselves to know that life could be fuller — in career, in love, in freedom, in just feeling like themselves again.** **Maybe you need a real conversation. Maybe you need to hear that someone else feels it too. Maybe you just need one evening that reminds you the things you want are still possible.** **This evening might not change everything. But it might change something. A perspective. A decision you’ve been putting off. A conversation that needed to happen. A realisation that’s been waiting quietly for the right moment.** **You’ve been putting yourself last for long enough.** **Come. Show up for yourself — even just this once.** **That little bit more is waiting for you. 🤍** ****** ***Out of respect for the openness and safety of this space — and based on feedback from our community — I’d also ask that you share your occupation when you message me to confirm. This evening is a genuine, pressure-free conversation and to keep it that way, I’m unable to accommodate those working in sales, MLM, or similar fields. I hope you understand and appreciate that this boundary exists to protect the experience for everyone in the room. 🙏*** ******

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.

**Our July novel is: *Listen for the Lie* by Amy Tintera** **This month’s novel was named one of the best books of 2024. It’s a domestic thriller with crime, mystery, and murder, told from women’s perspectives. The story includes a detective, an unreliable narrator, and plenty of suspense. The book is 352 pages in print and 9 hours and 18 minutes on audiobook.** What if you thought you murdered your best friend? And if everyone else thought so too? And what if the truth doesn't matter? After Lucy is found wandering the streets, covered in her best friend Savvy’s blood, everyone thinks she is a murderer. Lucy and Savvy were the golden girls of their small Texas town: pretty, smart, and enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. It’s been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can’t remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life. But now the phenomenally huge hit true crime podcast "Listen for the Lie," and its too-good looking host Ben Owens, have decided to investigate Savvy’s murder for the show’s second season. Lucy is forced to return to the place she vowed never to set foot in again to solve her friend’s murder, even if she is the one that did it. The truth is out there, if we just listen.

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. Come join us! Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology life improvement center.
