Our Mission
To power human connection over digital engagement.
We support people in gathering with intention and unplugging with purpose—offering the tools, inspiration, and encouragement needed to make digital well-being a lived, felt experience.
Why We Exist
To reconnect a disconnected world, one unplugged moment at a time.
In a noisy, always-on culture, we make space for what matters most: Real connection. Real presence. Real humanity.
This isn’t about guilt, shame, or fear. It’s about choosing to gather, to be present, to feel alive. We’re here to spark that shift—and stand with the people brave enough to unplug.
A Culture in Crisis
Digital fatigue is hitting a peak.
Mental health concerns are rising.
“Lack of social connection carries an equivalent, or even greater, risk of early death…as smoking, excessive drinking, physical inactivity, obesity, and air pollution” (WHO, 2023).
Youth, families, and workplaces are hungry for better balance.
Most people know they need to unplug but don’t know how.
“High rates of social isolation and loneliness have serious consequences for health and well-being” (WHO, 2023).
Solutions feel sterile, shame-based, or disconnected from real life.
Gatherers—the people who create true connection—are overlooked.
Our purpose is simple. We create space for people to reconnect with themselves, with each other, and with what makes them feel human.
Our Truths
Connection is Human.
Gathering isn’t a luxury. It’s a biological need. In a world pulling us apart, we practice the most human thing we can do: come together.
Unplugging is a Practice.
It’s messy, personal, and revealing. It’s not about getting it perfect. It’s about showing up again and again.
Start Where You Are.
There’s no one-size-fits-all for digital well-being. Every small step matters. Every human can find their own way in.
Real Change is Human Powered.
We trust real people, not algorithms, to inspire true growth. Change ripples outward when humans lead the way.
Support Over Shame.
Growth needs encouragement, not judgment. We build cheer sections, not scoreboards.
Tech isn’t the Enemy.
Disconnection is. We believe in mindful use of technology. Use it with intention, and stay human first.
Everyone has an Inner Gatherer.
We help people discover the part of themselves that brings others together—and experience the power of connection.
