Do you want to add more interesting people to your network? Are you looking for connections that go beyond small talk and swapping business cards? Do you like to challenge yourself to continuously grow? Do you enjoy fun, intimate, creative events that allow you to be your authentic self? If you answered "yes" to all these questions, this event is definitely for you!

When you purchase the ticket, you'll be asked a few questions that help us get a sense of who you are and what you're looking for (in terms of the connections you'd like to make). Think of us as your human algorithm! You'll be prompted to answer these short questions when purchasing your ticket and then we'll do our best to match you with the right connections.

Who We Are

We are InspiredHUMNS. We create events and experiences that bring together intellectually-curious, creative and inspiring people so they can meet and connect. We organize and curate high-quality experiences that prompt inspiring conversations, deep reflection and fun. You can expect all this at Stories & Chai, our monthly storytelling and networking experience.

The theme we'll explore for this 'Stories & Chai' session is: A Good Life, which is inspired by author, Priya Parker. We'll be reflecting on the kind of life we want to live and we'll be thinking about the things that light us up:

• The beauty of life is that each one of us gets to create our own definitions of what living a “good" life means, and on our own terms. What does it mean to you?
• Does it mean achieving Big Goals? Getting to pursue your passions? Waking up happy? Being creative or pursuing personal challenges?

What will this experience look like?

In this month’s event, we’ll be exploring our theme, “A Good Life,” in a unique and exciting format!

This Feb 25th, everyone’s a storyteller. That’s the beauty of this month's event: we’re opening up the storytelling platform to all of our attendees! Instead of profiling specific storytellers, we’ll have a "storytelling salon" where we’ll go around the circle sharing our own short stories and informal anecdotes that represent our ideas of what it means to live a 'Good Life'. We do away with the usual puffery at networking events and bring in our authentic selves instead!

You can expect diverse discussions, interesting insights; and of course – fun! Get ready to surprise yourself with your own answers to our guided storytelling prompts.

As always, we’ll be curating opportunities to connect meaningfully with others through our theme. We will also be having some small, curated group discussions so be prepared to meet some incredible, like-minded HUMNS!

* Please note - since this is a social event we recommend showing up ready to engage and interact with your cameras on for the very best experience.
