If coworking is just about filling offices, you're doing it wrong. John Egan (Lucid Private Offices) and John Herring (Fuse Workspace) know that thriving flex brands are built on hospitality, experience, and genuine community.

In this episode, we dig into how these two regional operators create spaces where members feel truly at home—and why that's the key to long-term success.

We cover:

• The strategy behind scaling a hospitality-first coworking brand.

• Why design and first impressions matter—but why people matter more.

• The role of culture, service, and even faith in coworking leadership.

• How regional flex brands can go head-to-head with the big players.

• What coworking operators can learn from hotels, restaurants, and even summer camps.

If you're serious about running a coworking space that actually builds loyalty, retention, and impact—this one's a must-listen!
