PEF Toronto: Post-Exit Founder Reset
After an exit, how do you proactively discover what comes next, without rushing into another company, project, or identity?
Inspired by a recent conversation in the PEF Toronto WhatsApp group, this intimate, participatory morning is designed to create space for reflection, honest conversation, and practical next steps.
We’ll begin with a short, accessible guided reset led by a facilitator from Grateful Den, using grounding, breathwork, or movement to help us slow down and get present. From there, we’ll move into individual reflection and a facilitated founder huddle. Everyone will have an opportunity to share where they are in their next-chapter journey, what they’re trying to understand or decide, and what kind of perspective or support they would value from the group.
This isn’t a workshop with a prescribed answer, and “what’s next” doesn’t have to mean another startup. The goal is to leave with greater clarity, a useful question, or one practical step forward.
