Our Story
Gabay Collective is a creative space where women are guided to explore creativity as a powerful form of self-care. Rooted in calm, culture, and connection, it offers a place to pause, reflect, and renew an invitation to step away from the noise and reconnect with yourself through intentional expression.
Whether you’re raising tweens or teens, navigating a 9–5, building a business, or simply holding a vision for more, this space meets you where you are. Born from a moment of awakening after years of juggling work, passion projects, and motherhood, Gabay recognizes how easy it is to lose touch with your own care and gently calls you back.
Through curated gatherings, hands-on workshops, and shared stories, creativity becomes a practice of returning to yourself. For makers and aspiring entrepreneurs, Gabay offers mentorship rooted in balance and sustainability guiding you to build with intention, move with clarity, and grow in ways that honor your well-being.
Meet the Founder
I’m Melody Anne Lorenzo, formerly known as the Pinay Pie Lady and founder of Sweet Condesa, later reimagined as Homebaked by Sweet Condesa, a brand rooted in empowerment, community, and creativity.
As my life evolved, I realized that building something meaningful also requires caring for the person behind it. That awareness shifted how I move; creating space not just for growth, but for presence, clarity, and well-being.
Gabay Collective was born from that shift. An elevated, creative, and safe space for women holding many roles while still feeling called to something more. Here, creativity becomes a form of self-care, and growth is pursued with intention, not urgency.
Through mentorship, workshops, and curated experiences, you’re invited to reconnect with your creativity, honor your capacity, and move forward with clarity and meaning.
