Satori ยท NYC

Ambitious peeps who live well.

Satori is a community for people in NYC building cool things, taking care of themselves, and looking for friends who get it. Coffee in the park, book club, yoga, saunas, hikes, other cool shit. Good people, good convos.

How this started

We built the thing we couldn't find.

When me and my buddy Jake moved to New York, we figured finding our people would be easy. Biggest city in the country, right?

Turns out it’s weirdly hard to find ambitious people who are also well-rounded. People who care about growth and rest. Work and life. Building something and having a good time doing it. The events we found were late at night, way too serious, or basically just drinking with name tags.

So we did the most entrepreneurial thing possible. We built the thing we couldn’t find.

Sundays, during the day, good coffee, good people, no pitching. Coffee & Chill was born. It blew up. And since we’re into wellness, we started hosting more of the stuff we actually wanted to do with the friends we were making. Yoga in the park. Saunas and cold plunges. A book club with no homework. Hikes. Retreats.

Build the world you want to live in. That’s kind of the whole thing.

Now Satori is a community of like-minded, ambitious people who aren’t just following the typical path. Grind but chill. Lift heavy, build heavier. Meditate, then dominate (peacefully). Serious about our craft, always down to laugh.

What we're about

We take our goals seriously. Not ourselves.

Don't take life too seriously.

Have fun. Laugh at yourself. We take our goals seriously, not ourselves.

Be well-rounded.

Be great at your craft and a good person. Career, mind, body, spirit, community.

Take care of yourself.

Eat good, move your body, meditate, get sun, roll around in the grass. One day you’ll be old and hoping you’ve got another ten years in you to make it to your grandkids’ wedding. Start now.

Support each other.

Someone else winning doesn’t take anything away from you. Make intros. Share what you know. Be positive.

Stay open.

Open to new people, new ideas, and people whose path looks nothing like yours. Less judgment, more curiosity.

Shamelessly follow your dreams.

Go after the thing that lights you up with zero apology. Nobody else is going to do it for you, and the people here will cheer you on the whole way.

The hangs

What we actually do.

Coffee & Chill

The signature Satori hang. Coffee, sunshine, Sheep Meadow, and conversations that go deeper than “so, what do you do?”

Book Club

A chill book club for people who love ideas. Read the whole thing, half of it, or come in blind. No homework police.

Move Your Body

Yoga in the park, free Barry’s classes, pilates and pumpkins, hikes upstate. For laptop-hunched gremlins everywhere.

Sauna & Cold Plunge

Sweat. Plunge. Breathe. Surprisingly great convos once your nervous system calms down.

Retreats

A few days away with a small, vetted group. Work hard, chill hard. Vermont this fall, Puerto Rico next.

Side Quests

Movie nights, Halloween parties, cowork sessions, bento takeovers, the occasional random field trip. If someone in the group has an idea, it usually happens.

How to get in the mix

Open door. Then it gets good.

What's coming up

Pick one, or just come to all of them.

Come hang

Find your people.

If you read all of that and thought “these are my people,” come hang. Tell us a little about yourself and we’ll get you in the Social Club.
