This past month has been one of the best of my life…

I just flew to @vidsummit in Dallas for Adhesive Media’s team offsite. We brought 7 people from different states into 2 Airbnbs. 

In just 3 days we accomplished so much:
- We hosted an 80+ person happy hour
- We had a 10 hour quarterly planning meeting
- We held 20+ brand/creator/agency meetings
- @brandonmchien and I took a walk around the hotel til 2am to gameplan Adhesive’s next 3 years
- @depatternize and @connery_g dropped the secrets to closing 7-figure brand deals

We truly have built the most incredible team over the past 4 years and this week felt like a huge breakthrough. 

Outside of Adhesive, we celebrated my niece’s first birthday, @fede.waldman grilled the greatest steaks in Miami, and @aj_eckstein tragically lost 11-0 in pool 

It all boils down to this: for so long I felt like I lived life in the backseat. 

These past 2 years, I’ve shifted my identity to say f*ck that and write my own story. 

Life is 10x better when you’re in the drivers seat.

Entrepreneurship is expanding. So is the demand for communities where founders don’t have to explain themselves.

When Gaston Becharano acquired Smorgasburg, he joined The Founders Club for one reason: none of his friends ran companies. He needed proximity to people who understood what he went through on a day-to-day basis.

He’s not alone.

The professional networking market is projected to triple by 2030. In-person is rising. Founders are reallocating time and capital toward curated environments that offer real relevance to their lives and situations. The hunger for unfiltered connection among people who just get it has never been stronger.

Against that backdrop, The Founders Club has grown to 1,200+ members in three years, with thousands of applications arriving each month.

We didn’t chase that growth. We protected the environment that made it possible.

Five-figure annual dues. $1M+ annual revenue minimum. Selling and self-promotion banned. Every person inside had to earn their seat. Because a community is only as valuable as the people in it, and the people in it are only as open as the container allows.

Entrepreneurship used to default to isolation. The best founders in the game are choosing something different.
To every member who has trusted us with their time, energy, and real conversations, thank you. We don’t take that lightly.

We’re grateful to be building this with you.

If you’re a founder ready to stop building in isolation, applications are open. Link in bio.

Onward.

2016 you were a blur. Hello from Founders Club members across the world 👀 🌎

2025 was a year we won’t forget.

What began as a small group of early believers grew into a community of over 1,000 exceptional members across North America. Some of the sharpest minds in entrepreneurship, representing more than $22M in combined revenue, came together across 30 cities.

From coast-to-coast events and in-person masterminds to destination retreats and once-in-a-lifetime experiences, 2025 reshaped how people think, build, and live. It was a year defined by the relentless pursuit of excellence and the commitment to building a dream life.

What stood out most was the community itself.

Founders who asked better questions.
Who shared wins and losses honestly.
Who showed vulnerability that would overwhelm most and, in doing so, raised the standard for everyone around them.

To every member who trusted us with your time, energy, and presence this year, thank you. The Club is what it is because of you.

As we step into 2026, know this: The Founders Club will continue to stand behind you, walk beside you, and push you forward.

Here’s to 2026, the best year of our lives. 🤝🥂

What a week.

This year’s annual Playa retreat pulled something out of all of us: clarity, honesty, and the kind of connection you can’t fake. 

From the workshops to the ceremonies to the late-night conversations, this retreat reminded us why community matters, and why doing life with the right people changes everything.

Founders showed up with courage, shared what they’re carrying, and raised the standard for what this Club can be.

We pushed and supported each other, and walked away with more direction, alignment, and gratitude for the people in the Club. 

The depth that formed here in just a few days is something most entrepreneurs never experience in a lifetime.

Thank you to every member who made this week what it was.

This is the community we get to build with, and the life we get to share together.

Onward. 🫶
