Women's Empowerment

The equality of women and men has shaped conversations about justice, opportunity, and human dignity across cultures and generations. In this discussion, we’ll explore what equality means in practice—socially, culturally, and personally. How have ideas about equality evolved over time? What progress has been made, and what challenges remain? How do we create communities where everyone’s contributions and voices are valued? Join us for an open and respectful conversation where participants can share perspectives, experiences, and insights. Whether you come to speak or simply to listen, all thoughtful voices are welcome. **All are welcome.**

**THE POWER OF THE SUBCONSCIOUS"** At the lecture "The Power of the Subconscious", the speaker will clearly and understandably explain topics such as: What is the exact definition of the Subconscious Mind? How does it inflict unwanted feelings and anxiety in you? What determines how much pressure it exerts on a person? What exactly is the goal of the subconscious? This is not just a lecture where you sit quietly and listen. It's interactive and LIVE, so you can ask questions at any time. And the most important topic: **HOW DO YOU TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR SUBCOUNSCIOUS!** This group is sponsored by the Dianetics Life Improvement Center.

Bring a pen and paper or your laptop, along with whatever you want to express! You’ll have the option to share your writing with others at the end or submit it to be published on ClubFeminist.com if that’s something that interests you, but there is absolutely no pressure to share. This is a space to slow down, reflect, and put thoughts into words. We’ll start with a few simple prompts, then spend time writing. This can be journaling, storytelling, or just getting thoughts out of your head and onto the page. **Some prompts we may explore:** • Something I was taught that I have had to unlearn • A moment I felt seen or unseen • What equality means to me • Why am I a feminist • A vision of a new world There is no right or wrong way to write. We’ll leave time at the end for anyone who feels called to share. If you’d like, you can also submit your piece to be featured on ClubFeminist.com, either anonymously or with your name. I’ll help facilitate publishing for those interested. Your words may resonate with someone else in ways you might not expect. *Non-writers, not to fret. We’ll have plenty of other types of events in the future.* This is meant to be a calm, low-pressure space to think, write, and connect in a different way. You might be surprised what comes out!

We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!
