Melbourne - November 2026 - Walk and Talk Morning for Heart-First Founders

A relaxed Eltham morning walk for small business owners, founders and soon-to-be founders who value kindness, empathy and a heart-first approach to business. Walk alongside others who want to stay true to their softer nature while building meaningful work, with space to connect, share or simply enjoy the creekside setting.

What to expect

• Meet at the wooden benches outside the Eltham Copper Butterfly Playspace, beside the mini trains
• A gentle walk along the creek path towards the Diamond Creek Trail, looping back to where the group began
• Low-pressure conversation and connection — no networking and no need to be ‘on’
• A reminder email the night before the event after you RSVP, including wet-weather updates, contact details and what to look for at the meeting point

Who it’s for

This gathering is for soulful small business owners, founders and soon-to-be founders who want to lead with kindness and protect their heart-first values. It also welcomes people recovering from a difficult experience with a client or contractor.

Good to know

• Free and low-key
• Children, babies and fur babies are welcome
• The path is smooth and accessible
• Toilets are next to the playground
• You’re welcome to stay for a chat afterwards if time allows
