THE GUEST ON THIS EPISODE IS TESSA MCLOUGHLIN, FOUNDER AND DIRECTOR OF KWENCH CULTURE CLUB
When I met Tessa in 2016, she had a lot of passion and a vision for Kwench that came with a big ticket buildout and a big funding gap. Since then, she opened a 5,000 square foot beta space, redeveloped 25,000 square feet of an old rail house and moved in five months before COVID hit.
Kwench is a full-service work & culture club for creative, ambitious thinkers & doers who seek more. Tessa added a cafe/general store as an amenity in April….and has big plans for what the next location will include.

- The Kwench story – What drove Tessa to create a work and culture club?
- How Tessa finally closed the funding to bring her dream to fruition.
