Authentic Connections: Where Playfulness Meets Depth
“We are hardwired for connection—it’s what gives our lives meaning and purpose.” – Brené Brown
Let’s be honest: not all connections leave us feeling fulfilled. Some energise us, make us feel truly seen and alive. Others? They fall flat.
This workshop is about creating the kind of connections that light you up.

Hey, I’m Maz. I came to Australia at 16 with no English and felt deeply out of place for a long time. By 18, life felt heavy enough that I didn’t want to be here anymore. After that, I learned how to numb. Games, substances, distractions. I was alive, but not really living.
Something eventually shook me awake. I realised how precious life is and that I didn’t want to waste it. The path out wasn’t clean or easy, but over time I let go of the habits that were keeping me disconnected and rebuilt a real relationship with myself and with life.
I studied psychology for over five years and was halfway through my Master’s, working as a provisional psychologist, when I chose to step away. I respect that world deeply. I also realised that what helped me most, and what many people need, are lived, relational spaces where honesty and presence are practised, not just talked about.
These workshops are my way of creating those spaces, for people wherever they are on that spectrum. From numbness to aliveness. From disconnection to real contact.
If this speaks to you, I’d be glad to hold the space with you.
