YATM Lunch Club Bristol | Being You

Come and join in with You Are The Media Lunch Club in Bristol.

It’s our space for people who want to learn together and feel part of something.

You Are The Media (YATM) is a marketing learning community where people don’t go heavy on looking at everyone as leads, we build something together. It’s a space to learn, share, experiment and feel part of a wider story with others who are figuring it out too.

We hear a lot about making connections when we go to business events, lets take that up a notch to friendships.

Now we’re bringing that to Bristol.

Lunch Club helps you transition from staying in your lane to sharing ideas, support, and creativity with like-minded people who truly understand your perspective.

Our format is simple:

A theme. Limited tech. Good food. Time with great people.

Lunch Clubs are in a panel format, so you hear perspectives and experiences from more than one person, not just one “expert at the front.”

We’ve been figuring out live events since 2016. Business events can be something different, something memorable. Think of it as a production where everyone plays a part in the show.

Being you sounds simple, just show up as yourself.

In our professional lives, online spaces, and creative work, that can be a surprisingly complicated thing to do.

At this Lunch Club, we’ll explore what it really means to be more you. Is it about sharing everything, or sharing the right things?

Is being open the same as being honest?

We’ll unpack the messy space where identity meets visibility and how showing who you are (with care and intention) builds deeper trust.

We’ll look at questions such as:

🤔 How do you decide what to share with your audience or peers?

🤔 How do you want to be seen, and how does that shape what you share?

🤔 Have you ever felt pressure to act more “on brand” than just you?

🤔 Where do your boundaries sit when it comes to showing the personal side of your work?

🤔 Does vulnerability make you feel empowered or exposed?

🤔 How do you attract the right clients, collaborators and community by being clear about who you are (and who you’re not)?

This is how a Lunch Club works

🏠 Arrive, eat, and good to see you
You’re welcomed in, handed lunch, and never left standing on your own.

🏠 We start with a challenge (or a World Record to beat)

Could be eating, could be putting on a duvet cover in the quickest time.

🏠 Ice breaker

Get to know the people around you a little bit more.

🏠 Panel conversation on “Being You”

Hear honest experiences from people who’ve wrestled with how much of themselves to bring into their work.

🏠 Join in with the questions and be part of the conversation

This is where we all join in with our own experiences and thoughts to share, plus new ideas for your side.

It’s not networking. It’s shared learning, encouragement, and being with other people who are on your side.
