Welcome — You’re Here by Personal Invitation

Someone who cares about you felt you would belong here.
They thought you’d love the way the Birders Hub brings people together through stories, migration, and the gentle noticing that makes birding meaningful.

This invitation is private and limited —
a doorway opened just for you.

What Is the Birders Hub?

A gentle, story-rich community designed for bird lovers who want:

  • Meaningful connection with others around the world

  • Guided reflection and small practices that deepen presence outdoors

  • Shared stories of birds, culture, art, and place

  • Seasonal rhythms — not overwhelm

  • A welcoming space where participation is optional and pressure-free

The Birders Hub is where noticing becomes connection, and connection becomes belonging.

Your Invitation Benefits

Founders-Circle Access

As a guest of a Founding Member, you’re stepping into a small circle of early supporters — and you receive the same special, never-again pricing they did.

Your Founders-Circle Access includes:

  • Locked-in annual pricing of $75/month or $750/year (our lowest enrollment rate)

  • Guaranteed renewal at this price for as long as you remain a member

  • Full access to the Birders Hub as it continues to grow

This pricing isn’t available publicly and will only appear again briefly during the December Encore Experience.

A quiet thank-you to those who join us early — and the friends they invite along.

Early Entry

You’re arriving during a season when public enrollment is closed as we prepare for our next migration cycle.

Through this invitation, you’ll get:

  • Immediate access — even though public enrollment won’t open again until March

  • The opportunity to help shape the new monthly rhythms and community practices as they emerge

  • Plenty of breathing room to find your pace and settle in gently

We may briefly open the doors for the December Encore gathering, but otherwise, this is one of the only early-entry paths available.

If you love entering communities while the energy is warm, quiet, and spacious — this moment is for you.

A Personal Welcome

When you join, you’ll be offered a Calm Start 1-on-1 orientation, where Kelly will help you:

  • Get settled into the Birders Hub

  • Understand how the community flows and what to explore first

  • Find the spaces that match your personality, pace, and energy

  • Ask any questions you have

You’re welcomed in gently, personally, and with care.

We’ll also let your inviting friend know (if you choose), so your connection can continue inside the Hub.

A Space for Belonging

Whether you’re just beginning, deeply experienced, introverted, or simply curious —
you are welcome here exactly as you are.

People join the Birders Hub when something in them is ready for a more connected birding life.
If you feel a quiet yes inside, we’d love to welcome you in.

Bonus: Complimentary Ticket to the Encore Experience

(worth $100 — yours free with this invitation)

You’ll receive a complimentary ticket to the December Encore Experience, where we:

  • re-open the most beloved keynotes from the 2025 Bird Migration Gathering

  • gather live for a gentle, reflective session

  • share stories, insights, and personal moments from across the flyways

  • give you a guided “first step” into the Birders Hub

This experience is normally a paid event, but it’s yours as part of your Founders Invitation —
a warm, easy way to enter this community and explore what the Birders Hub feels like in real time.

If you’re curious about the spirit of Follow the Birds, this is the perfect place to begin.

What’s Inside the Birders Hub

Once inside, you’ll have access to:

• Guided reflection practices

Moments of noticing, presence, and meaning — shaped by migration and the natural world.

• Weekly Field Notes

Inspiration, prompts, and gentle invitations delivered as part of the community rhythm.

• Conversation streams

Soft, intentional spaces for sharing bird stories, small moments, sketches, questions, and connection.

• Live seasonal gatherings

Bird sits, artist spotlights, conversations with guides and naturalists (varies seasonally).

• Member-only resources

Story collections, creative practices, and special guides.

You can participate as much or as little as you like — everything is designed to be calm, unhurried, and meaningful.

Need a hand? I’m here.

If you're unsure whether joining feels right, or you just want to find out a little more, I’m happy to help.
This space is meant to feel like a conversation, not a transaction — and you deserve real support from a real human.

You’ll hear back from me personally — usually within a day.
