About this Event
Book Launch Event: The Door – On Choice, Courage, and the Cost of Change
Step into an evening of insight, reflection, and powerful conversation as we celebrate the release of The Door.
Join Dr Watceilia Varso in conversation with distinguished panelists , Prof. Kate Ogg, Prof. Catharine Lumby and Jeremy Meltzer, bringing together academic, entrepreneurial, and leadership perspectives for a rich and thought-provoking dialogue.
Through compelling storytelling grounded in neuroscience and behavioural science, The Door explores the invisible moments that shape who we become, the courage to choose differently, the weight of uncertainty, and the real cost of transformation.
What to expect:
- A dynamic panel discussion bridging academia, business, and human behaviour
- Live author insights and behind-the-book reflections
- Book signing with Dr Watceilia Varso
- Curated networking with leaders, thinkers, and change-makers
This is more than a book launch, it is an invitation to pause and ask:
" What door are you standing before and what will it cost you to walk through it?"
Join us for an evening where stories meet science, and insight meets action.

The Door: An Evening of Choice, Courage & Cost of Change
Info: You will arrive thinking it is just another book launch evening.
At 6:15 PM, the room will begin to fill, light conversations, familiar exchanges, quiet laughter. Yet beneath it all, something deeper will be present. A subtle awareness you can’t quite name.
At 6:30 PM, the invitation will be extended. Not just to listen… but to pause, and to consider.
At 6:40 PM, the shift will begin. This will not be a memoir. It will be a mirror. You will start to recognise the patterns, the choices, the parts of yourself you rarely question.
At 6:55 PM, The Door will appear. Not just as a book… but as a threshold.
At 7:05 PM, voices will come together. Perspectives will meet. The cost of change will no longer be abstract,it will become real. At 7:45PM, the room will turn inward. The questions will no longer be for the panel,they will be for you. 8PM, something will shift. Conversations deepen. Meaning will settle. Because the truth is, you will not just be attending, you will be standing at UR DOOR!
