☕🌸 Chelsea Café + Discuss & Social: does self-development really work?

What do self-love, self-help and self-development really mean? Can they still make a difference, especially in the age of apps, Instagram and AI? Are we enough as we are, or do we need to grow more, do more, be more, in order to love ourselves?

Join our special "Saturday Cafe + Discuss & Social" joint edition at Bluebird Cafe, one of the most beautiful venues in Chelsea, for a chance to slow down and talk about these key questions in a genuine, safe and confidential space.

At World Citizens we always learn and share different perspectives based on the different life experiences and cultural backgrounds of the variety of people who join. If you're curious, open-minded and enjoy good conversations, this is a very good space to learn something new while making new friends!

✨ What to Expect:
• A welcoming table or two at the beautiful Bluebird Cafe in Chelsea.
• A small, friendly group (usually 15–25 people) of locals, expats, and curious minds
• Low-pressure, real conversations and occasional hosted discussions —no awkward cliques
• Options: relaxed walk after the cafe, or maybe museums/galleries nearby

🕑 Time & Place:
Arrive anytime between 2:00–4:00 PM
We meet in a café usually somewhere between South Kensington, Gloucester Road or Sloane Square stations (or more broadly in West London - location for each week updated on the Meetup page here).
Just grab your own drink/snack—there’s no event fee.

🌍 Who It’s For:
• 20s & 30s: young professionals, grad students, creatives, internationals
• People who enjoy meaningful chats more than loud bars
• Solo newcomers, returning members, and plus-ones are all welcome
We always encourage diverse, inclusive and equal representation at our events ❤️

🤝 Why We Do This:
Our café socials are part of the World Citizens community—a non-commercial, volunteer-run group for those who value openness, culture, and real connection. Many regulars first meet here before joining our Friday Socials and other bigger events!

💬 New? Nervous? No worries!
We’ve all been new once. Our volunteer hosts are friendly and happy to introduce you. Just come as you are!
