Solopreneur Supper: A Dinner Workshop & Insights Exchange for Founders, Builders, & Independents in Impact
What’s harder than building a business from the ground up or turning the tides of social change? Doing both. 🫠
The grind is real, but so are the opportunities – for personal evolution, perspective shifts, balanced building and impact, and a sustainable solo work experience that connects you to yourself and your community. 💗
This Fall, Issue Space and OPENHOUSE invite purpose-driven founders, creators, and solopreneurs into an intimate community insights session. Over a meal, we’ll share our experiences, name what we need, and hear how our peers are navigating positive impact work through independent ventures.
Our goal is communal connection in the moment, and new insight for the work ahead.
What to expect:
💡Gentle self-reflection exercises
💭 Light visioning and group workshopping
🍽️ Food for your body and mind
🍷A chance to fill your cup
This event will be cozy and creative, with limited room to foster an intimate experience and deeply discuss insights. Please submit an RSVP and we’ll confirm availability as soon as possible. A small ticket price is taken to ensure guests who RSVP truly intend to join.
To all our purpose-led solo builders and businesspeople – we see you. And we're in it together.
Hope to see you there. 💜🧡
