If your goal is to create a coworking space that's profitable, purposeful, and packed with community-driven energy, this episode is required listening. Gina Schreck didn't just open a coworking space—she built a village. What started as a 10,000-square-foot coworking concept born from her marketing agency has grown into a 50,000-square-foot hybrid of workspace, event center, and community hub. In this conversation, Gina shares how she and her team doubled down during the pandemic, leaned into events when others pulled back, and built a culture that continues to thrive—even when she's not in the building. In this episode, we cover: How Gina expanded from 10K to 50K square feet (and why she nearly walked away from it) What makes her podcast studio actually get used (and how it supports her community) The role of events in sustaining revenue and attracting foot traffic—even weddings and church services How her space became a true community center, with a waitlist for offices and thriving nonprofit partnerships Why DIY coworking isn't for divas—and how she leans into a high-touch, high-hospitality model This one is packed with personality, insights, and the kind of energy that's hard to bottle—and harder to scale. But somehow, Gina's done both.
