Goodsphere · Co-Creation Cohorts
A room for what wantsto be made next.
A small circle of founders, creators, designers, and operators meeting one day a week for six weeks. Guided by The Inner Mountain Foundation's approach to real transformation, drawing on frameworks developed at MIT. Not a course. Not a network. A room built around you.
The cohorts
Three circles, one after another. Each cohort meets one day a week for six weeks — small, invitation-only, and built around the people in the room.

◆Request your spotWhy this room
We believe the most interesting things of the next decade won't be made by one brilliant person alone — they'll be made in the space between brilliant people who'd never otherwise be in the same room.
A beauty founder, a fashion designer, a performer, a supply-chain mind — put them together, with real trust, and something emerges none of them could have made alone. We create the conditions. You create what wants to be created.
Who's in the room
By invitation only. Deliberately small — around 12 people, each at the top of a completely different world.
Founders building something they can't stop thinking about.
Designers shaping products, brands, or experiences people love.
Performers, storytellers, and creators with a real audience.
Operators, strategists, and supply-chain minds who make things real.
…and a few more, revealed personally as they confirm.
What's inside
- Peer-level co-creation, in a rare room
- An on-site production studio
- Brand & product matchmaking
- Facilitators trained in Theory U (the MIT method)
- Supply chain & product-development support
- Lifetime access to the Goodsphere community
The rhythm
Each week
Half day, six weeks
Half a day a week for six weeks — enough rhythm to build trust, enough space to let something real emerge between sessions.
Inside the day
Going inward, then outward
Morning: slowing down, connecting past the roles. Afternoon: making — the idea, the collaboration, the thing that wants to exist.
Where
Hollywood, Los Angeles · exact address shared after confirmation.
What's handled
Sessions, 2:00 PM–5:00 PM. Venue, meals, and an on-site studio, fully hosted. No panels, no pitches, no homework.
From Cohort 1
A few frames from our first cohort in Los Angeles — July through August 2026. Small circles, long conversations, and the quiet moment where someone finally says the thing they came to say.
