Not the Pattern — Live Day Event with Nathan Max Osorio · Los Angeles

Most people think the problem is second-guessing. Or hesitation. Or self-doubt. Those are symptoms. The real problem is the pattern underneath them — the one that keeps running even when you know better, even when you've done the work, even when everything in your life should be moving forward. This isn't about feeling less anxiety, doubt, or fear. It's about building capacity to hold the full spectrum — without any of it becoming a verdict. Most frameworks narrow your life. This expands it. **Not the Pattern** is a live in-person day event with Nathan Max Osorio — attorney, author of *You Begin with Language*, and The Interruption Coach. **What this is:** A working day. Not a lecture. Not a motivational experience. A structured, live session where you see the pattern that's actually been running you — and begin the process of stepping outside it. **What you'll leave with:** * A clear understanding of why the visible pattern is not the one stopping you * The three-layer model: surface problem, secret problem, source * The experience of seeing your pattern named — in real time * The foundation for interrupting it going forward **What's included:** ✔ Full day in-person session with Nathan Max Osorio ✔ Plus: full access to the Interrupt the Loop Intro Course **Investment:** $97 · Intentionally small group https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1990253786652?aff=oddtdtcreator

Cleantech Hardware Zero to One: What It Really Takes to Build EV Systems

Cleantech is full of big ideas—but turning those ideas into working, scalable hardware is where most teams struggle. Join us for a candid, real-world conversation with Bill Beverley, as he shares what it actually takes to build and deploy electric vehicle and battery systems that don’t just prototype—but perform in the field. With experience spanning aerospace, early EV OEMs, advanced battery technologies, and grid-connected electrification platforms, Bill has spent his career operating at the intersection of complex engineering and real-world execution and has seen firsthand what breaks, what scales, and what never makes it out of development. In this talk, Bill will cover: * The gap between ambitious concepts and functional, shippable hardware * What actually breaks in EV and battery systems—and how to plan for it * Early-stage architecture decisions that can make or derail a program * Supplier strategy, certification realities, and manufacturing readiness * How to navigate complexity, constraints, and cross-functional execution in high-stakes environments Whether you're a builder, operator, investor—or simply love a great behind-the-scenes tech story—this session offers a candid, grounded look at what it really takes to bring complex cleantech hardware from zero to one and make it work in the real world. ### **About the Speaker** Bill Beverley is an engineering and commercial leader with over 22 years of experience across aerospace, electric vehicles, battery technologies, and electrification platforms. He holds six patents in the electrified automotive sector and has held leadership roles at Faraday Future, Romeo Power, IndiEV, and Evolectric. He began his career in aerospace, serving as a technical project lead supporting global companies such as Airbus, Gulfstream, and Boeing, where he developed a strong foundation in systems engineering, safety, and precision. As Co-Founder (and now advisor and board member), Bill led technical strategy, new product development, and program execution at Evolectric, helping bring scalable electrification solutions to market. He now works with companies across mobility, defense, and energy through Bevco, advising on battery system development and deployment. Bill holds a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from California State University, Long Beach, where he remains actively involved as Chair of the College of Engineering’s Zero Emissions Workforce Advisory Group and as an advisory board member for the Master of Science in Sustainability Management and Policy program. He is also recognized as part of the university’s “49er under 49” program for Mechanical Engineering. **Networking** Come early to connect with fellow founders, technologists, creatives, and community members. Friday Coffee Meetup is as much about the people in the room as it is about the conversation on stage.

Unstuck Women

This is a 90-minute, facilitated open circle for women. Refreshments and light snacks will be provided. The group is located in West Hollywood, and the location address will be shared with RSVPs the day before the session to protect the anonymity of the attendees. Each session opens with a brief Reiki transmission and guided breathing to settle the room, followed by introductions and the heart of our work together. Women are invited to share where they feel stuck. Manta guides each conversation toward the crux of the issue, offering reflective feedback, practical exercises, and a clear next step. This is not therapy and it is not storytelling. It is solution-focused work in a supportive circle. Format: ∙ Reiki opening and breathwork (5 mins) ∙ Introductions (5 mins) ∙ Open circle with guided facilitation ∙ Closing reflections and takeaways Please arrive capable of being fully present. If you arrive intoxicated, you will be gently asked to return next time. A $10 donation is appreciated, but not at all necessary. Your presence alone is a gift. **About Your Facilitator** Manta spent a decade in corporate America as a management consultant, working with clients including Disney, Amgen, and The Carlyle Group. She is also a channel, Reiki master, and healer who studied under Tibetan monks. She has a rare gift for distilling the essence of what is blocking someone, helping them see it clearly and take practical action forward. In Manta’s hands, the analytical and the spiritual are not opposites. They are the same tool. This group is limited to 8 women to preserve the intimacy of the circle. If you have questions or want to know if this group is a good fit for you, please message Manta directly.
