GLOBAL DREAM TEAM COLLECTIVE
A curated global community for ambitious people building meaningful lives, meaningful work, and lasting relationships.
Through experiences, conversations, and gatherings around the world, members gain clarity, build lasting relationships, and create momentum toward what matters most.
Built by Ysabel Chavez — UCLA alumna, formerly at Warner Bros., CAA, and 20th Century Fox.
We're often one conversation, one relationship, or one opportunity away from the next chapter of our lives.
Global Dream Team exists to help ambitious people find an aligned community where they can belong, grow, and build what matters most.
Thoughtful, ambitious, and deeply human.
The best conversations don't just change what we know.
They change who we become.
We believe the people around us shape the lives we build.
That's why we intentionally bring together ambitious people who challenge, encourage, and genuinely want to see one another thrive.
A place where you can belong, grow, and build what matters most.
Founder & Creator of
Global Dream Team
Ysabel Chavez is the founder of Global Dream Team — a global collective for thoughtful creators, founders, and builders designing meaningful lives and work.
A travel filmmaker, storyteller, and community architect, her work focuses on clarity, connection, and intentional expansion — helping people move toward what matters — and build lives around it.
With a background in media, entrepreneurship, and connection-driven storytelling, Ysabel has worked with companies including Warner Bros., 20th Century Fox, and CAA, and was the first hire at a mental health startup featured in Forbes and TechCrunch.
She’s traveled to 40 countries, shared 100+ human stories, and built a global community rooted in depth, curiosity, and lived experience. Through storytelling, gatherings, retreats, and transformational spaces, her work creates space for people to slow down, listen inward, and design lives that feel aligned, expansive, and true.
At the heart of her work is a simple belief: meaningful lives are built through shared experience — not in isolation.
