Are you heading into 2026 feeling a bit restless? Ready for a reset—or simply curious about what’s next? Do you have a fleeting desire for more connection IRL? If so, ENERGY ON TAP: RETHINKING YOUR DAILY FUEL, the second gathering in our STIRRED, NOT STUCK series of casual Sunday evening conversations in the upstairs listening room, may be just the thing. Host Melissa Hicks, who has a background in learning design, will guide the evening—helping you take stock of your current life: what’s working, what’s not, and what you want more of in 2026. Together, you’ll name a few priorities and sketch one or two tiny, low-pressure experiments to try this month. This is a plain-English, no-pressure evening that feels more like a relaxed lab than a self-help boot camp. Expect engaging conversation, shared stories, and a simple “design my day” exercise—so you leave with a few concrete tweaks that fit your real life, not someone else’s ideal routine. OVERVIEW: Get curious about how your days actually feel in your body, including sleep, stress, movement, and mood, and design one or two tiny, realistic tweaks to try in February. This is a practical, no‑pressure evening that feels more like a relaxed lab than a traditional workshop, where you’ll map a “typical” day through the lens of energy, trade stories, and leave with small changes that fit your real life, not a perfect routine. WHO SHOULD COME: Anyone whose energy has felt a bit up‑and‑down lately or who is tired of powering through every day on fumes. Locals of any age who like good conversation more than lectures and are curious to experiment with tiny changes to sleep, movement, breaks, or daily routines in a friendly, down‑to‑earth Happy Valley crowd. If you want your days to feel a little steadier and more on your side, this is for you.
