About

Running a business takes clarity, resilience, and honesty - the same things people find in counseling every day. CoWalking brings that same spirit outdoors, into movement, and into community.

CoWalking is a walking group for founders and entrepreneurs, facilitated by *Erin Frobenius, Counselor, LICSW. Each walk brings together people running and growing a business - whether just starting out or years into it - to share wins, talk through real struggles, and connect with others who understand what that actually takes.

Every walk has a focused topic, guided by Erin, so the conversation goes somewhere real. Business - like life - is rarely static: the challenges shift, the season changes, and what worked last year may not fit where you are now. Walking side by side, out in nature, opens up space for honest conversation. The pace is moderate and conversational - think comfortable walking, not a workout - and the group stays together throughout.

Connection. Collaboration. Community. Counseling. CoWalking is built on all of it.

*Erin brings over 10 years of experience facilitating support groups and 20 years of experience as a 1:1 counselor to every CoWalking session. Learn more about Erin's counseling business here: relocationcounseling.com/.

A Welcoming Space CoWalking welcomes founders and entrepreneurs of every background - including race, nationality, gender identity, and sexual orientation. We do not tolerate harassment or discrimination of any kind.

Questions

Parking

There is paid street parking around Vondelpark. If you arrive by bike you can park in front of De Roos.

Are Dogs Allowed?

A note on pups: As much as we love dogs, this walk is dedicated time for you and the group to connect and focus on the conversation - so we ask that you leave furry friends at home this time.

What if it's raining?

We walk rain or shine - bring an umbrella and a rain jacket just in case! If the weather turns dangerous (thunderstorms, lightning, ice), we'll cancel and let you know as soon as possible.

Can I get a refund?

We don't offer refunds, but we understand life happens! If you miss a walk, we'll gladly move your registration to the next scheduled CoWalking session - just reach out to Erin and we'll get you sorted. This applies once per registration.

What's the walking pace like? Is this accessible for all mobility levels?

We walk at a moderate, conversational pace - this is not a workout. We walk outdoors for about an hour, sometimes over uneven ground, and the group stays together throughout. Questions about mobility or fit? Reach out to Erin beforehand.
