What if community was the missing piece to fixing modern work culture? Jaclyn Pascocello, founder of FABRIK, believes the cure for workplace loneliness starts with giving people a place to actually belong—and she’s proving it, one intentional gathering at a time.
In this episode Zoe sits down with Jaclyn Pascocello, founder of FABRIK, a tech-enabled network of real-life gathering spaces designed to solve one of today’s most pressing challenges: disconnection.
With a background rooted in hospitality and entrepreneurship, Jaclyn shares how FABRIK turns underutilized office spaces into vibrant, community-driven hubs—where people can connect, collaborate, and feel like they belong. From early lessons in restaurant service to building Spacious (acquired by WeWork), Jaclyn has always believed in the power of space to spark human connection.
In this episode:
- Why consistent access to space is foundational to building real community
- The loneliness epidemic and how FABRIK is meeting the moment
- What companies often miss when it comes to creating true connection at work
- How introverts and extroverts thrive differently in communal settings
- Why “networking” doesn’t have to feel transactional—and what actually works
Whether you’re a founder, community builder, or just someone craving more meaningful connection in your day-to-day life, this episode will inspire you to rethink how—and where—you connect.
