Monday Circles | Network, Don’t Collect - Building Genuine Connections
A 1-hour café circle on building deeper, more human connections - beyond business cards and small talk.
What’s Monday Circles?
Ever wish you had a space to pause, think, and learn - not through lectures, but through real conversations?
Monday Circles is a weekly, in-person community experience where professionals from different walks of life come together to explore a Spark, a focused life or work skill that’s small in size but big in impact.
The session is:
☕ 1 hour long - just enough to start your week with clarity.
👥 Small circles (6–10 participants) - to keep it real and relatable.
💬 Guided by a Circle Guide - not a speaker, but a facilitator who helps the conversation flow.
🌱 Outcome-based - you leave with one insight or action you can use right away.
This Week’s Spark: “Network, Don’t Collect - Building Genuine Connections”
We live in a world where everyone’s “connected,” yet very few feel truly seen.
Our conversations are quick, our contacts endless — but when was the last time you really connected with someone?
This week’s Monday Circle invites you to slow down and rediscover what connection actually feels like.
Guided by Ashwini Kaikini, we’ll explore how genuine curiosity, deep listening, and small gestures can build trust that lasts far beyond a handshake.
Through reflection and meaningful conversation, you’ll learn how to:
💬 Ask better questions that open real dialogue
👂 Listen in ways that make people feel heard
🤝 Build relationships rooted in authenticity, not agenda
Because the best networks aren’t built - they’re grown.
