Our First Friday Workshop:

RSVP: Your Circle of Connections

Being a founder can sometimes feel lonely. When you’re building something from the ground up, who do you turn to while juggling growth, pressure, and uncertainty?

In this session, we’ll explore your Circle of Connections. This isn’t about networking—it’s about noticing the relationships that matter. We’ll reflect on what keeps people in, out, or somewhere in between. Who are the people who give you energy, who calm you, who challenge or stretch you? Who’s inside your circle, who’s outside, and who’s sitting right on the edge? And how does that shape how you lead?

You’ll share your best practices for maintaining meaningful connections and consider what’s possible when you give them more space.

Join this collaborative conversation with other founders, co-founders, and builders like you, facilitated by Noa Ronen, the CEO and Founder of Coaching Connection.

What should I bring?

Just yourself, a laptop, and anything else you might need to work! We have a water machine, drip coffee, tea, dishes, and a microwave. Find a space, plug in, and get to work!

What's the parking situation?

We have a lot in front of our building where you can park for free for 2 hours - just be sure to validate your parking by scanning the QR code by our front door! After, you can pay to park on the street or in lots around the building!
