The community for experience creators.
Build a business that gives you time, energy, and meaning back.
Blume is a private coaching and community platform for experience creators – retreat leaders, festival founders, and adventure builders – who want to grow, with clarity and support.
Dan’s coaching helped me restore clarity, balance, and confidence as a founder. His blend of deep personal work and strategic insight transformed how I lead, make decisions, and build Nautica. Game-changing support.

Leading an experience business can feel like chaos.
Too many roles, too few boundaries. Always on, never really in it.
Big vision – but no clear path to grow it.
It’s exciting. But it can also be isolating, exhausting, and unbalanced. Especially when you’re the one holding it all.
We help founders grow with structure, soul, and a system of support – so you can keep building what only you can.
The future needs what you’re building.
Real-life experiences are becoming sacred again – because presence is the rarest thing we can offer. People are craving depth, connection, and moments that move them.
But the creators making those moments happen? They’re often running on empty.
That’s why we built Blume. To support the ones building what can’t be digitised.

Hi, I’m Dan
A strategist, coach, and experience creator. I’ve spent the last two decades building things that move people: festivals, travel brands, and experiential resorts.
I launched Hideout in 2011 and sold it five years later. Then co-founded Obonjan – a 56-hectare island project that earned global praise and tested every part of me.
It taught me this: success without alignment isn’t success at all.
Since then, I’ve shifted how I work – and who I work with. Today, I support experience creators to grow with more clarity, energy, and integrity.
Blume is the space I wish I had back then.
Curated, not crowded.
Blume is intentionally small.
We cap membership to maintain intimacy, relevance, and real connection.
This isn’t a giant Slack group or faceless forum. It’s a curated space for real creators to show up, share honestly, and grow together.
Our members include:
Festival Founders & Retreat Leaders
Boutique Travel & Adventure Brands
Hospitality & Experiential Spaces
Creative Studios & Cultural Curators
Coaches, Guides, and Inner Work Practitioners
They’re soul-led, ambitious, and deeply invested in what they create.

Got Questions?
Who is Blume for?
Blume is for experience creators. If you lead retreats, run festivals, design travel or adventure brands, or build spaces for human connection – this is for you.
Do I need to be full-time or at a certain level?
Not at all. We support people in early stages, scaling up, or recalibrating. If you’re clear you’re here to build something real, you’re in the right place.
What does the application involve?
Just a short form to share where you’re at and what you’re creating. We want to make sure it’s a strong fit both ways.
When does it start?
Access to the community hub and live sessions start Wednesday 24th September 2025.
You’re building something real. We’re here to help it grow.
Blume officially opens this September.
If you craft real-life experiences – from retreats and festivals to adventures that move people – Blume was built for you. This is your chance to get your time, energy, and meaning back – without losing the vision.
