About Us

Built by women for women who are still figuring it out—and choose to do it together.

The Gathering exists because the systems weren't built for how many of us actually work, live and think. So we're building something that is.

What is The Gathering, exactly?

Ever wish there was an off-grid retreat home (just like the image you see on the homepage) where you can rest, co-work, co-learn and co-live with other like-minded women? Same. The Gathering is that space. It is where women show up, settle in, and tap on The Gathering’s 4 Cs (scroll below to see what they are) to start afresh and build what comes next, or continue working on what you’re already committed to.

Who is The Gathering for?

The Gathering is for the woman who is doing what she’s supposed to do or has achieved what she was supposed to, and is wondering what it’s all for. She is intelligent, she cares about the world and she is ambitious— but her ambition has shifted from status to meaning. She is navigating burnout, loneliness or the exhausting gap between success and fulfilment. And she is done navigating it alone. That’s us. If that’s you too, get on the waitlist now.

What’s in the Clubhouse?

We’re working on four spaces in total progressively: The Cave, The Salon, The Public Library and The Directory. The Cave holds our body-doubling Sessions for co-working and co-living. The Salon holds our Special Events. There will be a Calendar function once you’re onboarded so you can easily book these Sessions.

The Public Library and The Directory are slow works-in-progress—we want you to have access to vetted resources, institutions and service providers who are not only neurodiversity-informed, but specialise in serving women. These will feature our own work, as well as the same folks we partner with for Special Events (weekly group support, anyone?) Write to us if you want to explore a partnership.

What happens after I apply?

Once we hit a minimum of 30 Founding Member applications, our small human team will start looking through and replying to each application. In the meantime, we'll send necessary updates on the build, including when we plan to launch beta, to whom and why.

As The Gathering is human-led and moderated for community safety, we'd love to hear from you if you have experience in leading virtual body doubling and training sessions. When applying, tick that box expressing your interest to be a Community Guide. Training will be provided if your application comes through.


Every member moves through four stages—and none of them are linear.

C

Clarity

Purpose-led guidance when everything feels like noise. Frameworks and resources that cut through complexity—not prescriptions, but maps.

C

Community

An environment that's at least 90% human-led and moderated, with all community members—including staff—trained to encourage genuine connection, belonging and most importantly, safety.

C

Courage

Acting from within—not bravado, but conviction that comes from having found your clarity and felt held enough to move. Honest conversations that make it possible.

C

Cultivation

A life deliberately grown. Not a destination, not a milestone—but the ongoing, considered process of building something you actually want to sustain.

"You're here because—like us—you sense something needs to change. We're not going to pretend we've got it figured out because we don't. Instead, we'll walk the journey with you and together, find proof that as a collective, we could make the extraordinary happen."

The Gathering operates under MAHIA Group's ethically humanist framework.

Honesty

We try not to exaggerate and overpromise. And if we do so by accident, Founding Members will get the opportunity to share it with us in Office Hours Sessions we hope to plant in the calendar so we can hang out and hear you out.

Integrity

We hold on to our values even when it costs us reach. The work comes before the metrics. That said, we hope the work helps provide for us, our loved ones and whoever needs it most. If we happen to get rich, whatever we don't need goes back into the work; into the community—one way or another.

Inspiration

We elevate the women we serve—not by telling them who to be, but by creating the conditions for them to find out.

Humanity

We treat members as whole people, not users. We try to maintain that every design decision, every piece of communication and every space is held to this standard.
