From the Community Last Tuesday, Louisa and I hosted a wellness and social for Founding Members at the JLL office in Flatiron — yoga to open the evening, then healthy bites and drinks as founders and VCs came together in the same room. What struck us was how aligned everyone was: building sustainably, with wellness as part of the equation, not an afterthought. Sweat in the morning. Work in the afternoon. The full picture of what our day looks like. Why We Built This Wellness is a big part of our lives — not as a side hobby, but as something we genuinely believe is inseparable from how you build. We started Founders House because we kept seeing the same pattern: talented founders building incredible things, burning out in the process, and losing the one asset that makes everything else possible. Our vision for it is simple: get a sweat in in the morning, work alongside other people who are building in an energized way, and then connect, trade ideas, and share at night. That's what a day at a private members club feels like — and April 20th is your chance to experience it firsthand. | | "Standard co-working spaces have no community. You don't go there to meet people like you. What we're building is different — it's community first." |
AI is creating more opportunities for founders than ever before — and at the same time, it's pushing people back toward in-person community and their own health. We've felt that pull ourselves. We've hosted 150+ sold-out events with Shopify, Bandit, and others over the past year. Now it's time to give our community a permanent home. Who's in the Room We're industry-agnostic, and the most represented verticals in our community are: | Artificial Intelligence | | CPG | | Health & Wellness |
Venture-backable founders with traction. People who are building at a high level while maintaining their health. Only a select group will be approved to join the evening. Hope to see you there, Damian Co-Founder, Founders House Ready to join as a founding member? Be part of our first cohort — Manhattan location opening soon. |
