PactPodz is Chicago’s newest and most innovative professional networking community—designed for entrepreneurs, remote workers, creatives, freelancers, students, driven professionals, and anyone with a goal who’s tired of trying to “go it alone.”
This free info session is your chance to learn how PactPodz works and—if you're ready—join one of our zero cost Beta Groups launching this month. In addition to regular in-person networking events, members split up into small groups (or “Pods”) that meet online every weekday morning for 10–15 minutes to speak their goals out loud, reflect on wins and challenges, and build real momentum. Then, pods rotate at the monthly in-person events to ensure your network continues to build.
What makes PactPodz different?
- Monthly in-person meetups to reconnect, reflect, and reset
- Daily online check-ins (no fluff—just focus)
- 4-person Pods that rotate each month
- A growing network of doers, dreamers, and goal-getters
- Beta is free—the only cost is your honest feedback
You’ll walk away from this session with:
- A clear understanding of how it works
- The option to get matched into a Pod on the spot
- A chance to meet other mission-driven professionals
- The spark of momentum you’ve been waiting for

Frequently asked questions
PactPodz is a community that blends monthly networking events and structured daily accountability groups. You’re matched into 4-person Pods that meet online daily to share goals and support each other, with new Pods formed at monthly in-person events.
Each day, your Pod meets for 10–15 mins to share: 1. Wins & challenges 2. Top goals for today 3. Your “One Big Goal” 4. Your personal affirmation
As of now, we are offering options for 7:00-7:15AM, 8:00-8:15AM, and 9:00-9:15AM. More options to come!
There will be membership fees in the future. Right now, we are focusing on making sure things run smoothly and collecting feedback from our first members. If you decide to participate in these first beta tester groups, you will forever be exempt from those membership as a thank you!
Because we’re more isolated than ever, and most productivity tools are "lone wolf" endeavors. PactPodz brings people back into the process—daily, small group connection that builds trust, momentum, and meaningful accountability over time in a way that also builds real, natural community.
PactPodz isn’t for everyone. It’s not casual, and it’s not anonymous. It’s for people ready to challenge themselves, show up even when it’s uncomfortable, and speak honestly in front of others. If that’s not your thing right now, this may not be a fit.
Anyone with a goal who’s ready to commit. Whether it’s personal, professional, or creative, if you’re willing to show up and speak your goals out loud, PactPodz can help you stay consistent, supported, and connected while you do the work.
After trying every tool—from productivity coaches to planners to accountability apps—we realized what actually works: people. Real people. Sharing goals aloud. Generating energy. Showing up daily. PactPodz was built to make that a system, not a lucky accident.
