before dharamshala, week 1 of the fellowship was fully online. pods were formed. ideas flew and everyone started building. > pods = small teams > each pod has dedicated mentor, creator and a designer. > with a curated idea board to pick & run.

why creators? > builders forget content is leverage. > we got the best creators → tagged them to pods. > they’re helping fellows tell their story, build in public and go loud.

week 2 → dharamshala. everyone flew down to dharmashala. came in as strangers who met online, never IRL, showed up to build and left as a family. some saw hills for the first time. with one motive to build onchain.

we did a launch party! > to show how the community shows up for everything you build. > every pod is preparing for the own launch this week. what sparked here goes way beyond the time spent or things shipped. made friends, built memories, learned from each other. until fellowship 3, thanks to @jessepollak @xenbh.eth @pratik for supporting us to make this happen. fin.
