Like you, I’m an entrepreneur. In addition to coaching hundreds of venture-backed startup CEOs over the last 15 years, I’ve co-founded two startups and know firsthand the stress and intensity of being ‘in the arena’.
Gratefully, the number of entrepreneurs who recognize the linkage between their personal development and their startup’s success has skyrocketed over the last decade.
We've been working hard to create the most energizing, powerful, effective, FUN retreat experience possible for startup founders/CEOs who sense that more is possible and want to realize their potential.

As a founder, you already know the power of commitment. You owe it to yourself and your startup to make this commitment, become who you need to be to realize your company’s potential and not miss the chance to join this amazing founder community.

Dave Kashen is regarded as one of the top startup founder/CEO coaches. Until now, his work has been mostly 1:1 with founders but we’re now creating new ways to expand his impact and lower the barrier to entry to receive his coaching, insights, etc.
If you don’t know Dave, he’s coached hundreds of founders and CEOs, 10+ unicorn founders and dozens who’ve built $100M+ companies, collectively creating over $100B in value. His clients include founders of Instagram, Solana, Alto Pharmacy, Jet, Fetch, Redesign Health, Indiegogo, Morning Brew, Republic, Truebill, and many more.
Dave cares deeply for founders (he’s started and sold 2 startups himself and is a YC alum) – his coaching is centered around conscious leadership, calming the internal storm that founders face, and transforming them into a world class leader and CEO capable of scaling with ease.
Emma coaches ambitious entrepreneurs to collapse their timelines and become great leaders by doing the inner work to transform how they show up in the world. She combines her approach to conscious leadership coaching with a decade of experience as a startup leader (Haus, Bocce’s / Antelope, Lean In) and McKinsey consultant to support her clients to thrive in high-pressure environments while staying true to their purpose.
Nicole Bliss coaches high-performing founders and executives to transform from reactive leaders to conscious creators by regulating their nervous system and reconnecting with their authentic leadership power. Before founding Lead with Bliss, Nicole built and led account strategy and agency teams at ad tech companies, where she experienced firsthand the unsustainable cycle of high performance fueled by chronic stress and the inability to disconnect from work pressures at home.
Nicole combines her deep understanding of high-pressure environments with conscious leadership, nervous system science and ancient wisdom practices to help founders break free from 3am mental spirals, decision paralysis, and burnout patterns. Her unique approach helps founders shift from leading through fight-or-flight reactivity to making conscious choices from calm clarity, enabling them to scale their companies from wholeness rather than depletion.
Eric (EJ) Allen coaches technical founders and leaders to evolve from high-performing problem-solvers into conscious, emotionally intelligent leaders who lead with clarity, connection, and joy.
A former CTO and software engineer, EJ has guided teams through acquisitions, ISO certifications, and hypergrowth, experiences that revealed both the power and the loneliness of leadership. His coaching blends technical rigor with emotional depth, helping leaders unwind patterns of over-responsibility and rediscover ease and authenticity in how they lead.
A father of three boys, EJ brings warmth, humor, and grounded presence to his work, creating space for transformation that extends beyond the boardroom into every area of life.
“This retreat was powerful in a way I will (hopefully) never forget. Thank you Dave and all the coaches…”
“It was the single best personal development thing I've ever done on a time investment → ROI perspective.”
”I still feel in a state of flow even to this day; its been over a month since the retreat!”
“Dave's work was absolutely game changing and is the gift that keeps on giving.”
