ADHD, Intimacy & Sexuality: A facilitated exchange space for FLINTA* people

**This meetup creates a facilitated space for FLINTA\* (Female, Lesbians, Intersex, Non-binary, Trans and Agender) people** with ADHD to explore these experiences together. **Meetup map is not accurate, go to:** RuDi Nachbarschaftshaus, Modersohnstraße 55, 10245 Berlin-Bezirk Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg [https://maps.app.goo.gl/xEAkmXXt5V3qHzfYA](https://maps.app.goo.gl/xEAkmXXt5V3qHzfYA) Go to the 2nd Floor. Follow the neurodivergent signs. **ADHD doesn't stop at the bedroom door.** **It can shape how we experience desire, intimacy, connection, stimulation, boundaries and our own bodies.** Sometimes in challenging or confusing ways, sometimes in ways that feel intense, exciting or deeply enriching. And yet, there are surprisingly few spaces where we can talk openly about the intersection of ADHD and sexuality without judgement, expectations or assumptions about what intimacy and sexuality are supposed to look like. **What to expect** * A small, moderated exchange space where different experiences and perspectives are welcome. * Through short inputs, guided reflection and conversation, we'll explore how ADHD can show up in sexuality and physical intimacy and exchange experiences, questions and perspectives with each other. * This is primarily a space for conversation and exchange, rather than a workshop or lecture. You don't need to have answers, and you decide at all times what and how much you want to share. Listening is participation, too. **The setting** * The group is intentionally kept small, with a maximum of **10 participants.** * You don't need an official ADHD diagnosis to join. Self-identification is welcome. * This is a facilitated exchange, not therapy or a therapeutic group. * The meetup is open to FLINTA\* people. We welcome different identities, bodies, sexualities, relationship experiences and ways of experiencing intimacy. **Facilitation** The exchange will be facilitated by **Julia (she/her)** and **Naomi (they/them)**. **Julia (she/her)** is a psychological counsellor specialising in sexuality and relationships, with a particular interest in the intersections of ADHD, sexuality and relationships. She facilitates exchange spaces around these topics and works with individuals and groups. **Find out more about Julia and her work here: *[https://www.mindingpleasure.de/](https://www.mindingpleasure.de/)*** **Naomi (they/them)** is the co-facilitator. They bring a trans/genderqueer and fat-positive perspective and want to make this a space where indeed everyBODY feels welcome. (Including but not limited to fat individuals, passing trans men, AMAB enbies/genderqueer people and trans women!) They are passionate about creating spaces where people come together to find healing, beauty and peace in community and in themselves. Together, we aim to create a **space where different experiences and perspectives can be shared, explored and listened to without assumptions** about what sexuality, intimacy or relationships should look like. **Event Fee** The event is **free** to attend, **but we kindly ask you to consider making a donation.** We need to cover some fee for the venue that accommodates us, as well as offer an appreciation gift to our facilitator, who will be guiding us for 3.5 hours. **About the organisers** **All organisers are neurodivergent volunteers.** Please be considerate and patient with us and each other as we co-create a respectful and welcoming event. **RSVP** **Spaces are limited,** so please only RSVP if you genuinely plan to attend. If you can no longer make it, **please update your RSVP as soon as possible** so that someone on the waiting list can take your spot. If you're on the waiting list, check back closer to the event as spaces may become available. **Repeated no-shows may result in removal from future events.**

Navigating Intelligence – From Geo AI to Agent Orchestration

A curated evening exploring how navigation evolves when AI systems move through physical space and orchestrate multi‑agent decision‑making. **Event Purpose** A high‑impact gathering that connects geo‑location intelligence, AI navigation systems, and agent‑based orchestration. The goal is to show how navigation becomes a strategic capability—both in the real world and within complex AI ecosystems. **Event Timeline (6:00 PM – 10:00 PM)** 6:00 – 6:30 PM \| Registration & ArrivalGuests arrive\, grab a drink\, and explore a short exchange on AI navigation and agent orchestration\. **6:30 – 6:40 PM \| Opening Remarks** ***[Katarzyna (Kasia) Stoltmann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/katarzyna-kasia-stoltmann-6b7656116/?isSelfProfile=false), Women in Big Data Berlin:*** A welcome emphasizing inclusion, visibility, and leadership in AI. ***[Ach (Astghik) Petrosyan](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ach9er/?isSelfProfile=false), Bettermile:*** A short statement on why navigation—physical and computational—is becoming a defining capability for modern AI systems. **6:45 – 7:00 PM \| Keynotes** ***Keynote 1 – [Claudia Stangarone](https://www.linkedin.com/in/claudia-stangarone/?isSelfProfile=false):*** Geo‑Location Navigation with AI A deep dive into how AI systems interpret spatial data, optimize routes, and adapt to dynamic environments.

What happens when agents negotiate decisions we don’t fully understand? Can navigation become a form of power in AI ecosystems? What breaks first: the map, the model, or the trust?This session should feel slightly uncomfortable—in a productive way. **🤝 9:00 – 10:00 PM \| Networking & Drinks** Space for deeper conversations, partner introductions, and community building. **Registration is required for this event.** *Photos and videos will be taken during this event to capture the atmosphere and document our event.

Authentische Ehrlichkeit: Tiefe, Verbindung & Verbindlichkeit

**Authentische Ehrlichkeit - Ein Einführungs-Workshop** **💶 Wertschätzungsbeitrag vor Ort: 10-20 Euro (nach eigenen Möglichkeiten)** . \-\-\-\-\-\-\- . Gute Freundschaften leben von Ehrlichkeit & Vertrauen. . Gute Freunde kennen sich, wie ihre linke Westentasche: ihr Leben, ihre Gefühle, ihre Wünsche, ihre Einstellungen, ihre guten & ihre schlechten Seiten. . Gute Freunde können „Ja“ sagen, wenn es ein „Ja“ ist; und sie können „Nein“ sagen, wenn es ein „Nein“ ist. . Gute Freunde können sich sagen, was sie aneinander mögen, und sie können sich sagen, was sie nicht so toll finden. . **🙂 Ehrlichkeit als Basis guter Beziehungen** Ehrlichkeit ist die Basis, damit Nähe & Verbindung entstehen kann. . Sich hinter Masken und (unbewussten) Lügen zu verstecken steht dieser Verbindung im Weg. . Ich glaube, alle Beziehungen im Leben werden vertrauensvoller, wenn man miteinander ehrlich ist: Liebensbeziehungen, Arbeitsbeziehungen, Freundschaften und selbst die Beziehung zur Bedienung im Café. . **🍀 Dieser Abend ist eine Einführung in die Ehrlichkeit.** Du erfährst, * warum „Lügen“ mehr ist als das bewusste Verdrehen von Fakten. * wie Du im Leben mehr von dem bekommst, was Du wirklich willst, weil Du Dich auf Ehrlichkeit einlässt. . An diesem Abend werden wir in kleinen Schritten Ehrlichkeit üben, auch in unbequemen Situationen. . Du nimmst praktische Ehrlichkeitsübungen mit, die Du sofort im Alltag und in Deinen Freundschaften umsetzen kannst. . **🧡 Zwei Worte über Ehrlichkeit** Ich habe mich lange versteckt, wollte meine schwachen Seiten, meine Ängste, Gefühle & Unzufriedenheiten nicht zeigen – immer mit der Angst, abgelehnt zu werden. . Irgendwann stieß ich auf Radikale Ehrlichkeit und buchte ein Wochenendseminar. Es war so befreiend! . Meine Erfahrungen findest Du hier: [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/radikale-ehrlichkeit-erfahrungsbericht](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/radikale-ehrlichkeit-erfahrungsbericht) . Danach habe ich das 8-Tages-Retreat gemacht, wo es wirklich ans Eingemachte ging. . Ich habe festgestellt, dass Ehrlichkeit meine Beziehungen zu anderen Menschen deutlich verbessert. . Gleichzeitig fühle ich mich deutlich wohler, weil ich mich nicht mehr verstecke. Ich bekomme meine Probleme gelöst (weil ich darüber spreche) und meine Wünsche erfüllt (weil ich darüber spreche). . Dieser Workshop ist mein Einstiegsbeitrag zu mehr Ehrlichkeit in Beziehungen und Freundschaften. . #### 👱🏼‍♂️ Über mich: * Mein Name ist Georg Preller * Ich bin Betreiber der Seite [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](http://www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de) * Ausgebildeter NLP-Lehrtrainer ([DVNLP](https://www.dvnlp.de/)) & Coach * Jahrelang selbstständiger Unternehmensberater * Eigene Vita: Von schüchternen Jungen zum fitten Mann * Mehr über mich: [LinkedIn - Georg Preller](https://www.linkedin.com/in/georg-preller/) . **⏰ Die Türen sind offen ab 18:15 Uhr.** Deinen Mantel aufhängen, WC, eine Runde schwatzen und los geht's... . **❓ Darf ich wiederkommen?** Es gibt nur wenige Veranstaltungen, bei denen man wirklich miteinander ins Gespräch kommt. Hier schon, mit Tiefgang. . Einige kommen immer wieder, um die kleinen Übungen ein weiteres Mal im gesicherten Rahmen auszuprobieren. Oder sie kommen aus Neugier, ob ihre neue Ehrlichkeit auch beim zweiten Mal zu aufregend ist. . Das Workshopprogramm ist jedesmal etwas anderes - je nach Gruppe und zunehmenden Erfahrungen. . **🎒 Was bringst Du mit?** * Etwas zu trinken (z.B. deine Wasserflasche, keinen Alkohol!) * Du solltest satt sein und vorher gegessen haben * Bargeld für Wertschätzungbeitrag (10-20 Euro) . **🏠 Der Veranstaltungsraum** * Wir haben einen wunderschönen Raum in Berlin Mitte * saubere Toiletten * Gut mit Öffis zu erreichen nähe Hackescher Markt * Vor Ort ist alles ausgeschildert. . **👋🏽 Weitere Gruppen & Kontaktmöglichkeiten** . 💚 WhatsApp-Kanal Freundschaft: [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/whatsapp-kanal](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/whatsapp-kanal) für Events, Workshops & Neueste Erkenntnisse aus der Freundschaftsforschung . **✈ Telegram-Kanal: [t.me/abenteuer_freundschaft](http://t.me/abenteuer_freundschaft)** Gleiche Inhalte wie auf dem WhatsApp-Kanal . **✉ Freundschafts-Newsletter:** [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/newsletter](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/newsletter) Das Neuste über Freundschaft & Monatsübersicht der Termine . **🔥 6 Zutaten großartiger Freundschaften (Männerfreundschaften)** Seit 2020 forsche ich, was großartige Freundschaften wirklich ausmacht.

The challenge: how do we keep streaming data useful and safe at the same time?* *We'll explore practical privacy protection patterns in streaming systems using Kafka, Flink, and Iceberg — from masking and tokenizing PII, to why "anonymous" data often isn't, to techniques like k-anonymity and noise injection. With real-world deanonymization stories and live demos included.* Second Talk: **From Edge to Gateway: architecting your OpenTelemetry Collector deployment** by [Marcin "Perk" Stożek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/perk-marcin-stozek/), Elastic *As OpenTelemetry adoption scales, the Collector becomes your observability backbone — but deploying it effectively means knowing what to run and where.* *We'll cover the full Collector fleet lifecycle: demystifying binaries (standard, EDOT, and custom OCB builds), mapping deployment topologies from edge agents to centralized gateways, and tackling fleet management at scale — from static configs to dynamic orchestration with OpAMP.* 19:45 – Pizza, drinks & networking \*\*\* Invite your friends and join us for an evening of learning and networking with fellow engineers and speakers!
