The future is not written, we make it our own. Help us write a chapter in history at After GlowUp!

CONSENT, COMMUNITY & COSMIC CONNECTION

We believe the best parties are built on enthusiastic consent, clear communication, and mutual respect. If you need support—or see someone who does—our “vibe-raters” (purple glow collars) and house managers are here to help.

Consent is cosmic law: Ask before touching. “No” is a full sentence. “No, thank you” is polite. If you hear it, gracefully accept it and move on to your next adventure. Let’s create a space where everyone feels respected, adventurous, and safe.
