A professional community for women and gender-expansive solopreneurs and small business owners who are ready for reciprocity and craving connection in their everyday working lives. 

The Spore Network is not your average networking space…

  • Deep & authentic connections
    You’ll build real, values-aligned relationships with fellow solopreneurs and small business owners.

  • Creative & intentional session design
    Every monthly session includes unique conversation starters, frameworks, and interactive activities to spark connection in ways that feel meaningful and energizing.

  • Reciprocal business support
    A space where people show up to both give and receive—through skill sharing, thought partnership, and mutual support across topics pertaining to your business and well-being.

  • Ongoing community conversations
    In addition to live sessions, you’ll gain access to a private server where you can keep the conversations going, share resources, exchange feedback, and offer encouragement.

What to expect:

and more…

Meet your Facilitator

Caryn Oppenheim

Caryn is here to deliver a radical type of professional community. She believes that even if we belong to cultures that place value in independent achievement, we can’t do it alone — and it’s neither as fun nor as meaningful if we try! Caryn integrates playfulness, warmth, inclusivity, and intentional creative design into each session, and is waiting for you to feel the power of this transformational community of supporters.

Why Spores?

Spores are resistant to extreme conditions, defy traditional reproduction norms, and can travel through many forms of matter to grow into new organisms. They create, connect, and feed ecosystems. Spores favor resilience over speed, remain responsive, decentralized, and function nonlinearly. Spores don’t extract; spores cooperate and support other elements of nature, often restoring balance. 

Join the network.

Found curates a diverse and intimate cohort of business owners with complementary skills, varied business experience, and a spirit of generous collaboration. As a member of the Spore Network you will build a professional community with other solopreneurs who value authentic connection. If you are ready for reciprocity and seeking a space that fosters creativity, engagement, inspiration, reflection, vulnerability, and true partnership, dive into the spore underground by completing the form to the right.

Testimonials

“Caryn has a truly special gift as a facilitator. She makes everyone feel seen, heard, and genuinely welcome. I recently attended one of her workshops and left feeling lighter, happier, and more connected to people I might never have crossed paths with otherwise.”

“I would highly recommend Found Creative Connections! I have been to two events so far and have benefited greatly from sharing space with others who I would have otherwise never met but now can’t imagine not meeting!”

Tori C

“I recently attended one of Found Creative Connection’s events. Caryn really knows what she is doing as a facilitator. I rate it five stars and I highly recommend trying it. I will be doing it again too.”
