WHY THIS EXISTS
You've been to the founder dinners. You've sat on the panels. You've worked the room, collected the cards, and driven home wondering why you feel more exhausted than before you arrived.
Somewhere between the pitch and the follow-up, the real conversation never happened.
Not because you didn't want it to.
Because the room wasn't designed for it.
THE RULES OF THE TABLE
Dinner for Eight is built on four commitments. They are not suggestions. They are what makes the evening worth attending.
THE EVENING
What happens when you arrive.
6:00 pm
ARRIVAL
The room is ready before you are. Unstructured — no name tags, no agenda, no icebreaker. A drink. A moment to find your footing. Let the evening begin on its own.
6:30 pm
SEATED
Eight women. One table. Tracy opens with a single question — not an icebreaker, a real one. The kind that makes you pause before you answer.
6:30–8:30pm
DINNER
Three courses. One conversation that goes wherever it goes. You will not be managing an impression. You will not be working the table. You will just be in it.
8:30 pm
THE CLOSE
No formal ending. Coffee. Dessert. Guests linger or leave when they're ready. The evening closes itself.
48 hrs
AFTER
A personal note from Tracy. If you requested an introduction, it arrives here — privately. Not a group email. Not a networking app.

WHO THIS IS FOR
This dinner is for women who have built something real. Who are past the proving phase. Who want to be in a room where they don't have to explain themselves — where the baseline assumption is that everyone at the table has already done the work.
CEOs. Founders. Entrepreneurs. Business owners with teams, with revenue, with the particular exhaustion that comes from being the person everything depends on.
Women who are done performing their success and ready to remember what it feels like to sit with women who are centered, grounded and fully themselves.
THIS DINNER IS NOT FOR YOU IF —
You are still in the planning phase of your business. You are looking for leads or clients at the table.
