From POUND—Rockout.Workout w/Avery Sunshine

**The Product Skills AI Can't Replace** AI can synthesize research, analyze data, and prioritize work. But when everything feels important and there’s no clear right answer, how do you decide what matters most? Join **ProductTank Columbus** and **Mike Belsito, Head of Product Evangelism at Pendo and Mind the Product**, to explore three practical habits for cutting through the noise, uncovering the real problem behind stakeholder requests, and prioritizing work that makes the greatest impact. **AI can help you process more information. Great product judgment helps you know what to do with it.** Doors open at **5:30 PM**, and the talk begins at **6:00 PM**, followed by Q&A and time to connect. Food and drinks will be provided by ZoCo, our generous host. Parking is available directly behind ZoCo and in the lot across the street. \*Towing will not be enforced in the paid lot on the day of the event.

Confidence Lab: When Being Yourself Changes Everything

Thu, Nov 5, 10:30 PM

**What becomes possible when you stop editing yourself to fit what you think other people want?** Being more fully yourself can change how you lead, how you connect, the opportunities you recognize, and the relationships you build. It can create deeper connection, greater freedom, more meaningful work, and a stronger sense of confidence in how you move through the world. But being authentic isn’t always comfortable. Showing up honestly can create tension, challenge expectations, change relationships, and require you to navigate conflict or uncertainty. And when you’re willing to keep showing up as yourself, even when it’s hard, it takes more than courage. It takes ways to rest, recover, and reconnect with what keeps you going. In this Confidence Lab conversation, we’ll explore what being your authentic self, confidently and publicly as well as in your relationships, has made possible; how you’ve navigated the tension and conflict that can come with it; and what helps you sustain that way of showing up over time. Come ready to share, listen, and consider what might change when you give yourself permission to be more fully you. **Featuring** **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. Whether you're navigating change, life’s challenges, or simply trying to better understand yourself and others. Annette gives you the language and the lens to get there. **Lachandra Baker** Founder of LBB Edutainment and the kind of person who makes you realize you’ve been confusing confidence with performance your whole life. Lachandra blends psychology, research, and radical humanity to help individuals and teams stop code-switching their way through the day and start showing up as someone they actually recognize. Expect to be challenged, affirmed, and genuinely seen - sometimes all in the same breath. **What is Confidence Lab?** Confidence Lab is a community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully, you belong here. Living fully demands clarity, courage, and conviction, but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. Confidence Lab is designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to live with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome!

Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions

Sat, Nov 7, 1:00 PM

From The Board Walks – Columbus

5.0

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).

Women are encouraged not only to share ideas, but to actively support one another through accountability, collaboration, brainstorming, and action-based growth. Every meeting is an opportunity to build authentic connections, gain fresh perspective, and leave with a clear action step to implement before the next session. This is a space where women rise together — not through competition or hustle culture, but through encouragement, courage, consistency, and intentional community. \*\*Evolve Women's Collective is a membership based professional women's group.
