Our membership is 313,000 strong. Members improve their speaking and leadership skills by attending one of the 14,650 clubs in 126 countries that make up our global network of meeting locations. The world needs leaders. Leaders head families, coach teams, run businesses, and mentor others. These leaders must not only accomplish but must also communicate. By regularly giving speeches, gaining feedback, leading teams, and guiding others to achieve their goals in a supportive atmosphere, leaders emerge from the Toastmasters program. Every Toastmaster's journey begins with a single speech. During their journey, they learn to tell their stories. They listen and answer. They plan and lead. They give feedback—and accept it. Through our community of learners, they find their path to leadership.

El objetivo de este encuentro es romper el hielo, hablar de las historias que nos gusta escribir, de por qué escribimos, de los libros que nos gusta leer, de qué dificultades encontramos al enfrentarnos al folio en blanco y de qué esperamos del grupo. En definitiva, se trata de conocernos como personas para entendernos como escritores. No importa si has escrito diez novelas, cuatro cuentos o el precioso título de un poema sin versos. Aquí todo aspirante a juntaletras es bienvenido.

*Most online networking feels like a muted webinar. Most digital hangouts feel like chaotic small talk. We are here to do the opposite!* \-\-\- 👉 **STEP 1:** Register here on MeetUp 👉 **STEP 2:** Get your ticket on [Luma](https://luma.com/6tlaga8h) \-\-\- At the **Women’s Coffee Network**, we offer a non-traditional experience where you don't have to fight for your voice, perfect an elevator pitch, or navigate a room of strangers alone. We created this circle because **we don't believe in the hustle; we believe in the power of a steady anchor.** This is a facilitated experience, not just a meeting. We don’t just book a table; we curate a journey. Working with the precision of a designer and the empathy of a coach, we’ve built this soft sanctuary where **the superficial is skipped** and **the high-fidelity connection begins**. We're here to share personal stories and build professional alliances. **🌟** TOPIC FOR THIS EDITION ​Most professional environments demand a mask of constant performance, leaving little room for the realities of the human behind the title. In this special edition, we are opening the **Black Box** to address the strategic and personal topics the business world often ignores. First, we’ll look inward to reclaim our foundations, navigating the invisible life cycles and health transitions we face in silence. It's about choosing your own rhythm in a world that demands you go faster. We then shift to our impact on the system around us, exploring how our individual acts of grit create a ripple effect that changes the professional landscape for every woman at the table. ​ WHO IS THIS FOR? * 🎀 It's a **female-only community** because we have our unique way to express ourselves, struggles in the business world, and jokes only other women can understand. * 🎀 If the idea of a meetup with 50 people makes you want to stay home, this circle is for you! We gather in **small, intimate groups** — to meet enough new people to have a deep conversation, but not so many that you feel anxious or overwhelmed. * 🎀 Whether you are leading a corporation, building a creative empire, or navigating the quiet uncertainty of a career transition, you have a seat at our table. The **diversity of professional backgrounds** makes our circle special with shared wisdom. * 🎀 Our **soft-flow dialogue** ensures that no bravery is required to be heard. You don’t have to be the loudest in the room to be the most impactful. Here, your silence is respected, and your voice is gently invited. HOW TO JOIN US? 👉 **STEP 1:** Register here on MeetUp 👉 **STEP 2:** Get your ticket on [Luma](https://luma.com/6tlaga8h) 🔗 Link also pinned in the comments for easy mobile access. WHAT IS INCLUDED? The support fee for this edition is €15 (5,800 HUF), which includes: * ⚓️ 2 hours of expert-led facilitation and curated dialogue * ☕ Your first coffee or tea (so you can simply arrive and settle in) * 🏠 Exclusive access to our private Facebook community * 💜 Supporting our work to create steady anchors for professional women * 🎫 All platform and transaction fees are also included. **If you feel called to create real connection in Budapest within a female-only community, we can’t wait to welcome you.** 💜 👉 [To secure your spot, please register here](https://luma.com/6tlaga8h) \-\-\- \-\-\- Follow us on ​[LinkedIn ](https://www.linkedin.com/groups/17220029/)\| [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/womenscoffeenetwork/?hl=es) \| [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/womenscoffeenetworkglobal) to see the atmosphere of our gatherings and get a daily dose of grounding.

Thank you for all.” *\- Sonya* “F\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from *"Where are you from?"* to *"When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?"* and I think **that's beautiful.**” \- Monika "It’s a **wonderful** **experience**, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." \- Sara **[Read our 170+ Google reviews here](https://goo.gl/maps/TpZy77bfPFkGoikn7)** *(we ain't your typical meetup)* **✨ FAQ** **• Can I come alone?** Of course, everyone does! **• Can I be late?** Please don't!

Please try again next time if you do not receive an invite - no hard feelings **• Is this a networking or dating event?** Nope! Think of us as the *anti-networking* and *anti-speed dating* event. There’s no pressure, no pitches, and no cringy icebreakers. Instead, we create spaces where strangers can connect through fun & meaningful conversations. It’s all about authentic connection, no business cards or romantic expectations required. (doesn’t mean it *can’t* happen, it’s just not the intention!) \-\-\- \* Location is only revealed to ticket holders! \* Age guide, 22-39 years old (only a reference of what you expect, not a limit ) ***This event is a no-phone experience.*** We started in Berlin back in 2019 out of the frustration of being asked 'where are you from?' a million times at every single meetup! Now there are chapters in nearly 20 cities, including London, Lisbon, Buenos Aires, Zurich, and Vancouver! ️ We're part of the Epic Llama Universe. We design out-of-the-box experiences that spark curiosity, creativity, and human connection.

A munkahelyeken gyakran úgy tűnik, mintha csodákat várnánk el a frontvonali vezetőktől. Legyenek egyszerre kiváló szakemberek, motiváló vezetők, szenzációs problémamegoldók, és persze emberséges mentorok is. Valójában a (nem létező) szuperképességek helyett inkább világos keretekre, célzott kompetenciákra és gyakorlatorientált támogatásra van szükség. A bevezető workshopunkban ezeket a szükséges kompetenciákat fogjuk kiválogatni, rangsorolni, használható profilba illeszteni - a tavalyi Lean On The Beach konferencián is bevált műhelymunka módszerrel. Aki a kártyákat keveri és osztja (azaz moderálja a munkát): Kőrösi Zoltán, a Leannovation trénere, tanácsadója. A témabeszélgetés után Lean Coffee meetinggel folytatjuk:-) Az esemény látogatása Leannovation Egyesületi tagsággal díjmentes. Részletek, csatlakozás: https://leannovation.hu/leannovation-egyesulet/ Az eseményen kép- és hangfelvétel készül. Várunk minden érdeklődőt!

Join us for a night of laughs as we dive into the quirky, beautiful weirdness of our beloved country!

💜 Csak nőknek szóló PyLadies esemény! 💜 Sziasztok PyLadiek! Ez alkalommal bepillantunk a legintenzívebben fejlődő AI-technológiák világába. Elsőként pár fogalmat és alkalmazási területet nézünk meg, majd pedig csinálunk Pythonban egy saját LLM-et. Felépítjük komponenseinket, és ki is próbáljuk, mire képes egy alaprendszer. A szünet utáni második részben az igényeinket kibővítjük, a rendszerkomponenseket nagyobb tudású elemekkel helyettesítjük, és így építünk fel egy, a gyakorlatban is használható megoldást, egy lokális RAG-rendszert. 👨‍💻 Előadó: Sepp Norbert 🗓️ Programterv Múltkori alkalmakból tanulva, most hosszabb szünetet hagyunk a ket előadás között, hogy legyen időnk beszélgetni és megismerni egymást :) • 17:30 – 18:00 Megérkezés, setup • 18:00 – 19:00 Előadás I. • 19:00 – 19:40 Szünet, Networking • 19:40 – 20:35 Előadás II. • 20:35 – 21:00 Záró gondolatok, elköszönés (A programterv változásának jogát fenntartjuk.) 💻 Mivel készülj? Workshop jellegű alkalom lesz, így ajánlott, hogy legyen nálad egy programozásra alkalmas számítógép. A meetup előtt egy héttel részletes telepítési és előkészítési útmutatót küldünk. Ha régebbi vagy kisebb teljesítményű géped van, akkor sincs gond – az első részhez nem lesz szükség komolyabb erőforrásokra. 💜 Kit várunk? Olyan lányokat/nőket, akik érdeklődnek az AI és a Python iránt, és szeretnék megérteni, hogyan működnek a modern nyelvi modellek, illetve kipróbálnák magukat egy saját rendszer építésében. 📍 Helyszín Balance Irodaház – 7. emelet Dél (Lifttől balra) Cím: 1139 Budapest, Váci út 99 🌍 Nyelv Az esemény nyelve: magyar (és Python) 🤝 Szponzor HCL Technologies Starschema Kft.

Expect to be challenged, affirmed, and genuinely seen - sometimes all in the same breath. **Annette Santiago Reyes** Annette has a rare talent: she makes the way you communicate feel like a discovery, not a critique. A connection catalyst and culture strategist, she helps people understand why they show up the way they do, and how to bridge the gap between intention and impact.

Annette gives you the language and the lens to get there. **Elizabeth Wangugi** Creator of The Nap Concert and the RESTOR™ framework, Elizabeth is here to tell you that rest is not a reward - it’s a strategy.

She develops the kind of leaders people actually want to follow. **Lillian Morales-Laster** SVP Human Resources Director at United Midwest Savings Bank and Executive Director of the Empowering Latinas Leadership Academy (ELLA). Lillian has spent her career combining her passion for equity and inclusion with her experience in human resources to lead teams and organizations in the development of supportive work environments. She leads with a vision of ensuring Latinas' voices are included in crucial decision-making processes, because for Lillian, ELLA is more than just a program. It's a vibrant community of hermanas supporting and uplifting each other as they navigate their paths to leadership. A Columbus Business First Community Champion and Distinguished Hispanic Ohioan, her commitment to empowering others shows up everywhere she goes. **Rachyl Kershaw** Founder of Greater Columbus Consulting and the architect behind the Confidence Lab Annual Summit, Rachyl has a gift for cutting through the noise, helping high-achievers stop performing success and start living it. She asks the questions most people are afraid to, creates space for honest reckoning, and somehow makes the hard work feel energizing. If you’ve ever wondered why doing everything right still feels like something’s missing, you’re in exactly the right room. **Why Confidence Lab?** Confidence is the foundation for success in every area of life.
