ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What happens when a Harvard MBA and founder of Turo trades boardrooms for bamboo?
You get Jungle Gayborhood—a soul-charged retreat center in the Costa Rican jungle where queer people come not just to relax, but to reconnect.
In this episode of Pride Nomad Unleashed, Ken goes deep with Shelby Clark, the Silicon Valley disruptor turned spiritual entrepreneur. Once the brains behind Turo (the “Airbnb for cars”), Shelby now builds spaces that heal, awaken, and empower queer folks through sacred plant medicine, sex-positive experiences, and jungle-born adventures.
This is not your average gaycation. It’s a full-body, heart-forward revolution.
We dive into:
- Why he left Turo after building a billion-dollar startup
- The truth behind his psychedelic awakening in Bali
- How Jungle Gayborhood became a queer sanctuary (and yes, a little “gay womb”)
- Sacred retreats like Jungle Fag, embodied adventures, and plant medicine journeys
- The wild power of living in flow—and why success without alignment is just empty
✨ Plus: Get $100 off any retreat using our Pride Nomad community code (link in show notes)!
This isn’t just an episode—it’s a permission slip to rethink success.
