Event Highlights

18:30 - 19:15 | Live Podcast Session

We’ll begin with a live recording of The New Health Club podcast, featuring Patrick De Jongh, founder and CEO of When Nature Calls, and Anne Philippi, founder of The New Health Club. In this conversation, they will explore how wellness, adaptogens, and natural health intersect in today’s world, fostering a dialogue on how these practices can deepen our connections with ourselves and each other.

After nine years covering Hollywood and tech for GQ, VOGUE, and VANITY FAIR, Anne transitioned into the world of psychedelics. She founded The New Health Club Podcast in 2020, using it as a platform to connect with experts and expand conversations in the field of psychedelics.

When Nature Calls was born 26 years ago from three friends’ search for natural alternatives to well-known nootropics and aphrodisiacs, inspiring the creation of a high-end smartshop dedicated to supporting healthy lifestyles through natural products.

19:15 - 20:00 | Introduction to Kanna & Meditation Led by Kanna expert Odin Pepper

This session will introduce you to the powerful effects of Kanna, a plant known for enhancing connection and inner calm. After sampling a KA! Kanna tincture, you’ll be guided through a meditation designed to help you connect with yourself and the group, cultivating a shared sense of presence and balance.

20:00 - 21:30 | Music & Non-Alcoholic CocktailsEnd the night with a curated music playlist that sets the perfect atmosphere for relaxed socializing. Enjoy our active non-alcoholic cocktail bar, where you’ll find special drink offerings crafted to elevate your evening without alcohol.

This event is not just about discovering Kanna—it’s about connecting with others in a like-minded community, sharing moments of mindfulness, and leaving with a sense of belonging.

We can’t wait to welcome you to this one-of-a-kind experience!
