Women's Surfing

Hi Radiant Ladies, Technology is growing so fast. Do you sometimes feel a little left behind? Or wonder what your grandkids are talking about when they mention AI? 😄 Come and join me for a relaxed Coffee & AI Afternoon at Mercure Hotel. I’ll show you a few simple, practical, and creative ways you can use AI in everyday life — to save time, spark ideas, and even have some fun. No technical skills needed. Just curiosity. Please bring your phone (fully charged!) and your beautiful self. We’ll enjoy coffee, learn together, laugh a little… and stay for dinner at Mercure afterwards for those who would like to. Let’s explore something new — together. 🌸 🅿️ Parking Info: If you’re coming from Doncaster Rd, take the third exit at the first roundabout to find the hotel car park. You’ll get 3 hours of free parking.

Hi, this is a free comedy night. It is an open mic style night, and so it could be good, or bad, or worse. It really is anything goes. Come along. They have cheap drinks. I'll be trying 5min on stage. Sorry I can't promise too much. We'll see what it is like together.

A calm, intimate space to pause, reflect, and release what you’ve been holding — no pressure, just space to breathe. ### ✨ KISMETRIX \| True Connection [Ticketed Event](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/apr-22nd-healing-circle-fire-ritual-pause-reflect-release-tickets-1985990411783?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=listing&utm-source=cp&aff=ebdsshcopyurl) **Healing Circle & Fire Ritual** Pause. Reflect. Release. 📍 RYVE Level 1, 38 Shafton St, Huntingdale VIC 📅 Wednesday, 22 April 2026 🕖 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM ## A SPACE TO PAUSE Life gets heavy sometimes. Not always in obvious ways — but in the quiet things we carry: Unspoken thoughts Emotional weight Stress, heartbreak, uncertainty This evening is a space to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself — gently. ## WHO THIS IS FOR This space is for you if: • You’ve been feeling overwhelmed or mentally full • You’ve been holding things in without space to process • You’re seeking clarity, grounding, or emotional reset • You want something deeper, but not overwhelming You don’t need to be “ready” or have it all figured out. Just come as you are. ## WHAT TO EXPECT A small, supportive and guided experience: • Calm and welcoming environment • Gentle reflection and awareness practices • Optional sharing (no pressure to speak) • Space to simply sit, listen, and be present • A symbolic fire ritual to close the evening ## FIRE RITUAL — LETTING GO You’ll be invited to write down something you’re ready to release. A thought. A feeling. A past story. Through a simple fire ritual, we allow that chapter to shift and move forward. Many people find this moment deeply grounding and freeing. ## SMALL & INTIMATE BY DESIGN This is not a large event. Numbers are intentionally limited to create a space that feels safe, real, and personal. ## ABOUT YOUR HOST Hosted by Vivienne Vu Founder of Kismetrix \| True Connection Vivienne creates spaces that support emotional awareness, presence, and authentic human connection. ## 🔔 IMPORTANT NOTES • This is a reflective group experience (not therapy or medical treatment) • Participation is always optional — you can simply observe • Respect, boundaries, and emotional safety are central to this space • Tickets are limited and kept intentionally small ## WHY PEOPLE COME TO KISMETRIX • Real experiences, not surface-level interactions • Spaces designed with intention and care • A sense of connection — with others and within yourself ### Hosted by KISMETRIX \| True Connection 📧 [social@kismetrix.com.au](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/apr-22nd-healing-circle-fire-ritual-pause-reflect-release-tickets-1985990411783?aff=ebdsoporgprofile) 🌐 [www.kismetrix.com.au](http://www.kismetrix.com.au/ "http://www.kismetrix.com.au")A

Hi Radiant Ladies, After our Saturday walk, join us at Windchimes Café for coffee, friendly vibes, and a relaxed catch-up. 🅿️ 2-hour parking out front. See you there! Lyn 😀

We'll hike 3.4 miles on the Killdeer and Yellowlegs Trails - both out and back gravel trails. If we want more mileage we can repeat an out and back. Pace of around 3.5 mph, no one left behind and those who want to go faster sure can! As always optional lunch after. This is the second Metro Park in the lineup for me - with 21 to go (plus more are being added).

**Over time I'm hoping to organize a hike to all the Franklin County Metro Parks. This is the first one so if you're interested jump in!** **We'll start with the Canopy Walk, a cool feature of this park. Climb 100 stairs to the top - or take the elevator if stairs aren't your thing. At the top there are a bunch of things to play on - a rope bridge, a fireman pole that we can slide down - and more! About fifteen minutes there and we'll head to the natural trail, Buttonbush, Maple and Beech Trail for 2.2 miles then do a 1.7 mile loop on the paved Greenway Trail. We'll be passing our cars as we transition if you only want to do the first loop, or the second loop. Pace of around 3.5 mph but no one left behind.** **If there is an interest we can grab lunch nearby afterward at Prost Beer and Wine Cafe. Www.prostcafe.com**

We will hike the Ridge Trail and Meadows Trail twice, for a total of 3.8 miles. There are some pretty good inclines so plan on getting a cardio workout :). This is a loop which is pretty easy to follow; thus faster walkers can take the lead and the rest (like me) will bring up the rear at a slightly slower pace. You could also just do the loop once for 1.9 miles. No one left behind. Optional lunch to follow in Canal Winchester. I'm working through the metro parks - this is the third one!

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional
