Mackenzie Konz founded Sunrise Social, a UK-based wellness movement organizing free outdoor activities to foster mental health and community connections. The initiative coordinates sunrise walks, group swims, and outdoor yoga sessions across multiple British locations, earning industry recognition for its accessibility-focused programming. Sunrise Social operates through both in-person gatherings and a dedicated social networking platform designed specifically for outdoor enthusiasts. The platform facilitates event planning, adventure sharing, and community building among nature enthusiasts seeking local connections. Konz developed the technical infrastructure to support member-organized activities while maintaining the program's core focus on reducing barriers to outdoor recreation. The community's digital hub enables year-round engagement beyond scheduled meetups through features tailored to outdoor activity planning. Konz extends her wellness advocacy through curated product recommendations in the outdoor recreation, fashion, and lifestyle categories. She maintains an integrated social commerce presence across established platforms to connect community members with vetted outdoor gear and wellness products. Her commerce initiatives complement Sunrise Social's community programming while supporting the organization's expansion into new UK markets.
