**[BUY THE BOOK HERE](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/be-upfront/)** Lauren Currie, founder of UPFRONT, invites you to celebrate the launch of her bestselling book — an evening of honest stories (the kind you don't normally hear on a stage), practical tools you'll use the very next day, and a room full of brilliant humans who are done with the old rules. ✨ **What's included** * A live reading and short talk from Lauren * Confidence tools you can use immediately * Q&A and audience moments * Connection and book signing, with books available to buy on the night *Hosted by speaker and coach Nat Pearce* **About the author** Lauren Currie OBE is an entrepreneur, best-selling author of Be UPFRONT: 24 Rules For Life Changing Confidence, and a global voice on confidence as a tool for economic justice. She is the Founder of UPFRONT, a company redefining confidence as a core leadership competency essential to culture change, equity, and performance. UPFRONT’s flagship programme, The Bond, has upskilled 15,000+ women across 50+ countries and is trusted by organisations including Nike, Spotify, and the Ministry of Defence. Lauren believes confidence is not a personality trait, it’s a social and economic lever. She has spent the last decade building businesses, products, and ideas that prove it. She was awarded an OBE for services to design and diversity, named one of the UK’s top businesswomen under 35, and spent seven years as Chair of the UK’s leading maternity discrimination charity, Pregnant Then Screwed. Her children’s book, *Taylor Meets The Trick*, helps young people and the adults around them name the patriarchy for what it is and begin to unlearn it together. She grew up in Kilmarnock in Scotland and now lives in Uppsala in Sweden with her family.

Volvemos a la carga con mucho teatro y más ganas que nunca de poder compartir este maravilloso arte con vosotros. Teatro en estado puro al alcance de todos! El nivel inicial tiene una gran importancia en el camino del desarrollo teatral, ya que en este primer contacto con el teatro nos basamos en comprender el hecho teatral en sí. Para ello realizamos una formación actoral básica, basándonos en las técnicas y disciplinas básicas de las artes escénicas, así como en los conocimientos indispensables para cualquier actor. Trabajo de improvisación, voz, expresión corporal, paleta emotiva, escenas, creación y trabajo de personajes, creación propia, desbloqueos etc. Siempre trabajando de una manera lúdica, el alumno podrá investigar las distintas herramientas escénicas que se pueden dar en el espacio teatral, mejorar la expresividad, potenciar la creatividad, el trabajo en grupo, la autoestima, y mucho más. Tomará conciencia de su cuerpo, del espacio, aprenderá de forma práctica como es la relación con los objetos, la creación de personajes y el trabajo de la improvisación, mejorando la expresión corporal y oral. Pero sobretodo DIVERTIRSE HACIENDO TEATRO, ese es nuestro principal objetivo. No os preocupéis si no hay mucha gente apuntada por meetup, la actividad se hace igual porque tenemos más gente apuntada por otros lugares.

Have you ever wondered if there is more to life than just getting a safe job and paying the bills? Have you ever felt like you are here for a reason? Do you know deep down that you have something great to give to the world, but not sure what? **Welcome to the age of Aquarius my love.** **The time in Human history we have all been waiting for.** The moment where the stars align for Humankind to wake up to their God-like potential and innerstand that there is so much more to the world than we can see. **Age of Aquarius teaches us that this is a journey we must travel from within.** **In this lecture, I am going to share how I went from operating in the Matrix money mindset to sourcing abundance from within. Through one of the most potent tools I have come across so far: Human Design. And how you can too!** Let's jump into the rabbit hole my loves! **Journey with us during this 2.5 hour lecture where you will learn how to unlock your greatest potential from within through the basics of Human Design ✨** **You can also join our WhatsApp Community here:** [https://chat.whatsapp.com/BlkchE6a0jN42OUNtYewBs](https://chat.whatsapp.com/BlkchE6a0jN42OUNtYewBs) **The event is free, but the hotel does ask you pay them 7 Euro and then you get a drink in return :)** **THIS EVENT IS HOSTED IN COLLABORATION WITH THE BOOK CLUB** This special session is generously offered by Celia for The Book Club community. As Human Design is part of her professional work, her sessions are normally paid experiences. However, as a long-time member and supporter of The Book Club, she kindly offered to host this event free of charge for our community (thank you!! 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️). At the end of the session, there will be an opportunity for anyone interested to learn more about her work and personal offerings. Participation is, of course, completely optional. The Book Club is simply hosting the event for the community and is not affiliated with, nor receiving any commission from, any services or offers shared during the session. Because this Human Design session is based on listening, interaction, and a calm atmosphere, we are currently considering hosting it indoors rather than in the park, so everyone can fully enjoy the experience without background noise or distractions. If held in an indoor venue, the location usually require a small participation fee per person ( €7), which includes a basic drink or refreshment, depending on the venue. This fee would go directly to the venue hosting the event and not to The Book Club or the guest host.

**UPDATE: This session is now fully *offline* and will take place in person.** **What are ND‑Friendly Badges?** After 5 months of designing, testing, and building, we’re launching a new community tool: ND‑Friendly Badges, a platform where neurodivergent people in Barcelona can review venues based on real lived experience - lighting, noise, predictability, sensory load, staff attitude, and more. This Meetup is an open presentation + Q&A for anyone curious about the project, wanting to contribute, or thinking about reviewing places themselves. **What we’ll cover** * Why we built ND‑Friendly Badges * How the badges work (automatic scoring, community‑driven reviews) * Live walkthrough of the website * Roadmap: what’s coming next * Open Q&A **Who is this for?** * ND people living in Barcelona * Allies, friends, and supporters * Anyone interested in accessibility, community tools, or improving local spaces * People who want to help shape the platform **Try it before the event** If you want to explore the platform ahead of time: **🔗 [https://badges.neurodivergentinbarcelona.com](https://badges.neurodivergentinbarcelona.com)** **Practical info** * This is a relaxed, low‑pressure session * No prior knowledge needed * Bring questions, ideas, or just curiosity **Why it matters** Barcelona has many great spaces, but ND people often don’t know what to expect. This project helps us share knowledge, reduce uncertainty, and make the city more navigable for everyone. **–** **Català** **Actualizació: Aquesta edición será *presencial* (offline)** Què són les ND‑Friendly Badges? Després de 5 mesos de disseny, proves i construcció, llancem una nova eina comunitària: ND‑Friendly Badges, una plataforma on les persones neurodivergents de Barcelona poden ressenyar espais basant-se en l’experiència real — llum, soroll, predictibilitat, càrrega sensorial, actitud del personal i molt més. Aquesta trobada és una presentació oberta + Q&A per a qualsevol persona curiosa sobre el projecte, amb ganes de contribuir o pensant a començar a ressenyar llocs. **Què tractarem** * Per què hem creat les ND‑Friendly Badges * Com funcionen les badges (puntuació automàtica, ressenyes de la comunitat) * Demostració en directe del web * Com escriure ressenyes útils centrades en necessitats ND * Full de ruta: què vindrà després * Torn obert de preguntes i feedback **A qui s’adreça?** * Persones ND que viuen a Barcelona * Aliats, amistats i persones de suport * Qualsevol persona interessada en accessibilitat, eines comunitàries o millorar espais locals * Persones que vulguin ajudar a donar forma a la plataforma **Prova-ho abans de la trobada** Si vols explorar la plataforma abans: 🔗 **[https://badges.neurodivergentinbarcelona.com](https://badges.neurodivergentinbarcelona.com)** **Informació pràctica** * Sessió relaxada i sense pressió * Càmera opcional si és online * No cal coneixement previ * Porta preguntes, idees o simplement curiositat **Per què és important** Barcelona té molts espais fantàstics, però les persones ND sovint no saben què esperar. Aquest projecte ens ajuda a compartir coneixement, reduir la incertesa i fer la ciutat més navegable per a tothom. **–** **Español** **Esta edición será *presencial* (offline)!** **¿Qué son las ND‑Friendly Badges?** Después de 5 meses de diseño, pruebas y construcción, lanzamos una nueva herramienta comunitaria: ND‑Friendly Badges, una plataforma donde las personas neurodivergentes de Barcelona pueden reseñar espacios basándose en la experiencia real — iluminación, ruido, predictibilidad, carga sensorial, actitud del personal y más.

**¿Buscas un espacio para crear, soltarte y conectar contigo mismo sin expectativas?** En este taller de creatividad con barro sensorial utilizamos herramientas interdisciplinarias como movimiento, mindfulness, imágenes, experimentación con materiales, etc., para tener una experiencia creativa encarnada. Nos reunimos 2 horas cada dos semanas. Un espacio para explorar sin juicios y despertar tu expresión más auténtica. Aquí no venimos a enseñarte a hacer piezas perfectas; te acompañamos para que la creatividad salga de tu propio cuerpo. Usamos métodos sencillos pero poco convencionales. El objetivo no es "fabricar" algo bonito, sino experimentar y sentir lo que surja. **¿Cómo funciona?** Cada taller es un módulo independiente con una ruta diferente. A veces nos movemos, otras meditamos, y otras creamos un campo de juego. Además del barro, exploramos pintura, instalación efímera o escritura. Cada persona encuentra su propio camino para conectar con lo que realmente quiere expresar. Creamos un círculo entre tú y tu creación. Tú eres el creador y el observador. Estás creando tu obra, pero al mismo tiempo la obra te está creando a ti. **¿Es para ti?** Si algo de esto te resuena, no necesitas experiencia previa. Solo ganas de probar y sumergirte. **Te ofrecemos:** • Un espacio seguro y sin prejuicios. • Todos los materiales y herramientas (no traigas nada). **Nota importante:** Las piezas no se hornean. El taller es una experiencia efímera: valoramos el proceso creativo, no el objeto final. Si buscas llevarte algo cocido, este no es tu sitio. ***Aportación voluntaria:*** paga según tus posibilidades (referencia 25€).

The personal communication and dating world is evolving rapidly. We’re moving from exhausting repetitive small talk to sophisticated personal AI agents and digital alter-egos. It’s time to sync up and discuss how to build, evaluate, and scale an open-source "second brain" for authentic human connection. ​Join us for a deep dive into personal knowledge graphs, agentic memory, and hands-on experiences in building your digital twin. We will discuss how to apply recent suggestions by Andrey Karpaty https://www.mindstudio.ai/blog/andrej-karpathy-llm-wiki-obsidian-ai-second-brain to dating and mactchmaking in agentic style. ​Key Topics: ​**Personal Knowledge Bases & Agentic Memory:** Practical patterns for moving beyond basic RAG (like NotebookLM) to robust, updateable memory systems (Supabase, MCP) to handle fact deduplication, source tracking, and hallucination reduction. ​**The "How Would I Answer?" Engine:** Crafting precise instructions and tone-of-voice guidelines so your agent can extract factual history and draft sincere, engaging responses that truly reflect who you are. ​**Multi-Agent Verification Pipelines:** Using parallel LLM evaluations to independently score generated messages. Measuring what matters: "How naturally does this read?" and "Does this align with the goal of being sincere and attractive?" ​**Digital Alter-Egos & Agent Matchmaking:** Exploring the future of compatibility—from giving agents the ability to "sniff each other out" for goal alignment, to the ultimate objective of using AI to make us calmer, more present, and less reliant on screens. ​Open Discussion: Bring your own use cases, failures, and breakthroughs. Whether it's extracting facts from thousands of personal chat logs without losing context, managing fragmented LLM memories, or building the perfect verification harness for your digital twin — let’s figure it out together.

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided!

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!

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
