Conscious Connection for builders, leaders, and creatives [public]
Join us for Authentic Bay Area's Conscious Connection series!
Authentic Bay Area is part of the Authentic Anywhere network — a global community for builders and visionaries who want depth, not just hustle.
tl;dr: This unique gathering brings together builders, leaders, and creatives in San Francisco for an evening of Conscious Connection. This isn't a traditional "networking" event. Authentic Bay Area is all about the authenticity that comes from depth.
Interested, but can't make it to this one? Sign up for our newsletter, and we'll keep you abreast of what's coming. No spam, just juicy connection goodness: https://authentic-bay-area.beehiiv.com/
Our events are for the Conscious Leader.
The one that has both a market-focused leader AND a spiritual seeker within. This community was created to reconcile the dichotomy that can exist between our "work" persona and the "conscious" persona. Our events are part-networking, part-spiritual practice, combined into something WAY deeper.
Not everyone cares about being a Conscious Leader. If that's not you, totally cool! We'll say up front that this community probably isn't the right fit for you.
💬 What our members are saying:
"LOVED it. There's nothing else like this. This is something magical."
"As a founder, I’m finding the people that I LOVE here. They’re spiritual people that happen to be in business of some sort."
"I was so energized I couldn't sleep! I felt like I was able to admit how I'm really feeling about business and get support."
👯♂️ This is for you if:
You feel like traditional "networking" events are too "business-ey". Sometimes they’re great and other times they feel transactional, like speed dating on how to build a business
You might like "conscious" events, which are soul-filling, but feel divorced from the day-to-day reality of being a business owner unless you literally run a monastery
You'd rather work 10-1-4s 🧘🏾♂️ than 9-9-6s 🤮
You're a dreamer who owns your desires and also wants to do it YOUR way
🤔 This is NOT for you if:
You love your 9-9-6 life
The life in your corner office and staring at how much money you make all day feels good (no knock. enjoy!)
5am kettlebell lifters (though if that honestly feels in integrity and balance for you, then yay welcome!)
You're looking for a playbook with all the answers
You view consciousness as a means to an end to further a capitalist outcome. This isn't reconciliation, it's living 2 lives.
⏳ What to expect:
Guided meditation to settle and arrive
Facilitated experience to guide us out of our socialized selves and into vulnerable connection with fellow authentic Bay Area-ites
Group connection time on what we're building from the heart-space
Excellent vibes
👥 Who you might meet:
A startup founder who is committed to building their business with love
A product executive-turned-consultant who is as much a therapist as a consultant
A sales director who meditates every day and wants to master the spiritual game of chess
A software engineer whose passion lies in creating IRL communities
A therapist turned conscious community builder
Whether you're a solopreneur, startup founder, seasoned executive, emerging leader, or simply curious about developing a more authentic approach to life and work, we invite you to bring your whole self to the table and connect deeply with others.

Presence and an open mind
Your amazing & authentic self!

About the facilitator:
Yash Singri: I’m an executive & leadership coach and transformational retreat facilitator for founders, leaders, and teams.
I help founders, leaders, and teams get unstuck and operate with more energy and authentic expression. My approach blends psychology (primarily IFS and somatics), The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership, directed inquiry, and secular Buddhism to get clear on where drama exists in your life and organization and move through it to presence.
I’d love to connect with you at yashassingri.com or LinkedIn.
