​SINGirls Paradox ✨

​Why does dating feel harder than ever—even when we're more connected than ever?

​Many successful women today find themselves caught in a paradox. We long for meaningful relationships, yet modern dating can leave us feeling exhausted, confused, independent yet lonely, hopeful yet discouraged.

​If you've ever wondered "Is it just me?", this evening is for you.

​Join us for SINGirls Paradox - Expect real talk, not small talk - an evening that moves from icebreakers to small-group "Paradox Circles" to an open fireside conversation, all built around one throughline: the paradox of wanting connection while guarding your independence.

​What’s on the night

​🎉 Registration & Social Warm-Up - check in, grab a drink, ease into the room

​🎲 Singles Mingles - a light, playful way to break the ice before the deeper stuff

​💬 Paradox Circles -

​Through facilitated Paradox Circles, you'll meet women navigating similar experiences, exchange perspectives, and discover practical ways to think differently about the challenges you're facing. We will group you into one of five themes:

• ​Dating burnout

• ​The expectations dilemma

• ​Fear of commitment

• ​Emotional availability

• ​The self-sufficiency paradox

​🔥 Fireside Chat - “Modern Women, Modern Independence: Why Is Meaningful Connection Becoming Harder?”, featuring Ms Rahayu Mahzam, Minister of State, Ministry of Digital Development and Information & Ministry of Health

​This is moderated by Qi Zhai-Mccartney, the Founder of Atlas Therapy & Coaching, and a practicing psychotherapist executive coach, and public speaker.

​🎤 Audience Q&A - bring your questions, this is a conversation, not a lecture

​🥂 Community Mixer - open networking to close out the night

• ​reassurance that you're not alone

• ​meaningful friendships with women who truly understand your journey

• ​Renewed hope and confidence for the season ahead
