Found / Unfound – A founder’s retreat
A founder’s retreat
You started something of your own.
But in the process of building, maybe you lost touch with the one who started it all.
A quiet weekend at an earthen sanctuary
Where open fields and silent skies hold space for you to pause the world and return to yourself.
What is Found / Unfound?
Startup founders are often caught in the whirlwind of scaling, leading, and constantly performing. In this high-stakes journey, their emotional and mental well-being is frequently overlooked.
Found / Unfound is a mindful retreat created for founders, not to give you strategies or growth hacks, but to offer space.
It’s not about fixing anything. Not about growth tactics or ten-step plans.
It’s about coming home to yourself.
Set within a consciously built farmstay in the outskirts of Jaipur, this retreat offers space:
– To check in with how you’re really doing, beyond the role of “founder”
– To be with your thoughts, without a deadline
– To listen to your inner guidance, without noise
This is a space for clarity, not answers.
Dates: November 21st to 23rd, 2025
Why This Retreat?
Your work as a founder moves mountains, but sustaining that impact demands a spirit rooted deeper than hustle. Yet founders rarely stop moving. They are always in motion — leading teams, making decisions, absorbing feedback, and navigating the unknown. Rarely is there a moment to simply pause.
72% of entrepreneurs face mental health challenges.
That’s when burnout creeps in — quietly. Most don’t even notice until they hit a wall. And then there’s the fog.
Founder Fog is real — too many tabs open in your mind: team, product, growth, funding. Understanding slows down. Decision-making gets harder. You feel stuck, but keep going anyway.
This retreat is your intentional pause:
A space weaving slow living, grounding in nature, and embodied reflection to help you:
– Notice what’s beneath the surface
– Realign with the purpose you started with
– Have conversations that go beyond business metrics
Sometimes, clarity only comes when you stop and breathe.
Experiences You Will Be Held In
This is a soft, emotionally intelligent space – co-created with mental health professionals and experienced facilitators.
This isn’t a boot camp or a vacation, but it’s not aimless downtime either.
It’s a thoughtfully designed experience, with space for reflection and meaningful participation.
Across the weekend, you’ll be experiencing:
– Founder-only sharing circles guided by a clinical psychologist
– Sound healing and guided breathwork
– Art therapy and creative expression
– Movement therapy and embodiment practices
– Connection games and reflective journaling
– Silent mornings and nature immersion
Need to go deeper?
Optional 1:1 sessions with our psychologist offer a private space to explore what emerges. Completely confidential, completely yours.
Not workshops, but grounding, heart-opening invitations to meet yourself exactly as you are.
Each experience is an invitation to show up for yourself, as you are.
Who is this for?
This is for founders — whether you’re just starting out, in the messy middle, or well into the journey.
It’s for the human behind the hustle who is:
– Juggling growth, team, and vision — but rarely checking in with yourself
– Missing the raw joy and wonder you felt when you first began building
– Carrying the weight of decisions and expectations, yet longing to feel light again
You won’t walk away with a to-do list, but with clarity.
Because being a founder isn’t only about building something outside.
It’s also about holding space within.

It’s a place to listen to yourself, to the silence, to the things that get drowned in the day-to-day.
