After Work Networking Melbourne

Women in Business Networking Lunch

# Melbourne Women in Business Launch Hosted by Paulina Xerri (BAMM Coach) and Kathy Uhlik (Lumina) ### The Confidence Gap Keeping Smart Women Playing Small You're invited to the official launch of the Melbourne Women in Business Network. If you've ever found yourself questioning your abilities, holding back from opportunities, overthinking your next move, or waiting until you feel "ready" before taking action, you're not alone. The truth is that most smart, capable women aren't held back by a lack of talent, knowledge, or ambition. They're held back by a confidence gap. A gap between who they are today and the version of themselves who confidently speaks up, takes action, backs themselves, and creates the success they truly want. Join us for an inspiring lunch designed to bring together ambitious women who are ready to grow their businesses, expand their networks, and have meaningful conversations about leadership, confidence, visibility, and personal growth. During this event you'll: ✨ Connect with like-minded women in business ✨ Build genuine relationships and new opportunities ✨ Learn why confidence is often the missing piece behind business growth ✨ Discover practical strategies to stop second-guessing yourself and start taking bold action ✨ Leave feeling inspired, empowered, and clear on your next step Whether you're a business owner, entrepreneur, coach, consultant, freelancer, or professional woman with big goals, this event is designed to help you step out of your own way and into your next level. This is more than a networking lunch. It's the beginning of a community where ambitious women support one another, share opportunities, and grow together. Come as you are. Leave with new connections, fresh perspectives, and the confidence to play bigger. Spaces are limited, so reserve your spot today. Venue TBC based on numbers but it will be in Melbourne's CBD.

Deep Work - Ubuntu

**THEME** At this Deep Work event we'll explore **Ubuntu — the art of operating as one.** UBUNTU invites us beyond the boundaries of 'me' and into a deeper current, where many **become a single organism**: anticipating one another, moving in concert, and **creating together what no one could alone.** **TIMING** \*Please arrive by 1:00PM for a 1:15PM start. The event will conclude at 2:45PM. **SETUP** You will be seated in small groups of about 5 people. We encourage you to sit with people that you don't yet know. :) **TICKETS** Tickets are $15. We're happy to provide full refunds for cancellations received with 48+ hours notice. **PROGRAM** Through carefully selected quotes and interactive discussions, we will: * **Explore** the hidden assumption that we succeed or fail alone, and notice the moments at work where 'we' quietly disappears * **Share stories, laughter and insights** of moments of belonging—times a team carried us, or we carried someone else—and what they taught us about being human together * **Create casual and fun art** that captures connection, belonging, and the threads that bind us to one another * **Develop practical ideas** to bring more 'we' into our teams—through how we listen, share, and show up for one another Come ready to feel what it's like when 'me' gives way to 'we'—when a group moves like a single living organism. You'll **leave inspired to bring that same flow into your own teams, equipped with fresh perspectives on trust, anticipation, and the quiet art of moving as one.** **PARKING** 2P parking is available directly adjacent to the venue. [Use this link to navigate there.](https://share.google/LErJ1bb0KTUMZfM43) There is also underground parking available directly opposite the venue.

Network Walk 2.0 Melbourne #2

After a break, We are back! Excited to meet new faces and kick-start more conversations. The objective of this event is to get comfortable with the idea of talking to strangers. You are free to talk, or just observe. Networking is critical for success here in Australia, and if not now - when? There is no agenda to this and anyone is welcome. Just come along and join a random bunch of strangers for a walk in the city. As this is a test run, we'll go by the flow after meeting at 300 Flinders St. Please arrive on time at the location as we may move from the start. As it's a short event, latecomers are not entertained. I will update the live location in the comments at 12.20 pm We may move/walk 10 mins after the beginning of the event. Follow us with the live location that I share in the comments Note : Please update your RSVP if you are unable to make it. We are all taking time of our busy schedule to make this happen.

Brunch Club: New Friends Edition

Meet new people over good food, easy conversation, and a relaxed weekend brunch. This event is designed for anyone who wants to make new friends in a warm, low-pressure setting. Instead of a loud or overwhelming social event, we’ll keep things simple: a small group, a welcoming table, and friendly conversations that help everyone feel included. You can come alone — most people will. We’ll use a few light BeSocial prompts to make introductions easier and help conversations move beyond the usual “what do you do?” small talk. Whether you’re new to the area, rebuilding your social circle, or just looking for more genuine connection in your week, this is a simple and enjoyable way to meet people who are also open to friendship. The goal is to leave feeling like you shared a good meal, had real conversations, and maybe found someone you’d like to catch up with again. **Perfect for:** brunch lovers, first-time attendees, people new to the area, young professionals, and anyone wanting an easy weekend way to meet new friends. To help you get the most out of the event, we ask that you download our app before you arrive (or upon arrival). The app will be used throughout the event for prompts, activities, and other interactive content so having it ready will ensure you can fully participate. https://apps.apple.com/au/app/besocial/id6759604739 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appetiser.besocial&hl=en **Event photography and videography may take place at this event. Images and footage captured may be used in future BeSocial promotional materials.** **If you do not wish to appear in promotional materials, please notify Nexaro Group Pty Ltd before the event by emailing support@besocialapp.co, or let the event hosts know on the day.**
