Our Journey

During the long, rainy coastal seasons, I found it increasingly hard to connect with people in a real way without alcohol, noise, or screens. Most social spaces revolved around bars or devices, and I missed that grounded, present feeling that comes from being in nature and in community. I kept wondering why there wasn’t a warm, intentional place in the city where people could slow down and simply be together. Eventually, I realized someone had to make one.

Gatherwell is for people who crave real connection and wellbeing - those who want to slow down, unplug, and share meaningful moments without alcohol or distractions. The idea grew from a simple desire to create a space where people could gather, recharge, and feel part of something real. The journey hasn’t been easy, navigating permits and outdated city regulations tested our patience, but the encouragement from our community proved how deeply this was needed. Today, Gatherwell creates cozy, intimate settings where people connect through sauna and cold plunge sessions - a simple, restorative alternative to nightlife that’s both social and healthy. Our vision is to create a network of saunas across the coast, where warmth, nature, and conversation bring communities together through every season.
