​Thriving Founders:
Morning Reset Resilience, breathwork and breakfast.

​Founding is an endurance sport. We're bringing a small group of founders together for a morning on resilience: honest conversation, practical tools, and breakfast before the day starts.

​When

​Tuesday, 21 July 2026 · 8:00 – 10:30 AM

Format

​Open conversation, guided breathwork, breakfast. Invite-only, small group.

​01

​Open conversation

​Xaver Lehmann built and sold e-bot7, then hit the wall few exits prepare you for. Philip Specht has watched the same pressure build across a decade with early-stage founders. They open with their own journeys, then the floor is yours.

​02 Guided breathwork

​Lucia Hegenbartova on using breath to regulate stress and restore focus. Techniques you can actually use in a board meeting (no mats required).

​03 Breakfast & connect

​Time with people who carry the same weight, off the record.

​Lucia Hegenbartova

​Executive Breath Coach

​Works with founders and leadership teams on stress regulation, recovery and focus.

​Xaver Lehmann
