What Dinner for Eight is
Not a networking event.
The opposite of one.
You've been to the founder dinners. You've worked the room, pitched yourself between courses, and driven home more depleted than when you arrived. Dinner for Eight exists because that isn't connection — it's performance. And women who have built something real deserve better than that.
01
Eight women.
One table.
Eight is the exact number where one conversation can hold the whole room. Small enough to be intimate. Large enough to surprise you.
02
One question
opens everything.
Tracy opens every dinner with a single real question — the kind that makes you pause before you answer. The conversation goes wherever it goes from there.
03
What's said stays
at the table.
Confidentiality is the foundation. These women are CEOs and founders. The dinner is one of the few places they can speak freely, without performance or consequence.
The evening
What actually
happens.
This is not a structured event. There is no agenda, no panel, no workshop. It is a dinner — a beautifully set table in a private room at a restaurant worth the occasion — where eight women who have built something real get to stop performing and just be in the room.
Tracy is your host. She knows who is at the table before the evening begins. She opens the conversation and holds the space — not as a moderator, but as someone who genuinely wants to know what's in the room.
Within twenty minutes you'll be in a conversation you'll still be thinking about next week. That's not a promise — it's what every founding dinner guest has said.
6:00 pm
Arrival
The room is ready before you are. Unstructured — no name tags, no agenda. A drink, a moment to find your footing.
6:30 pm
Seated
Eight women. One long table. Tracy opens with a single question — the kind that makes the whole room lean in.
6:30–9pm
Dinner
Three courses. One conversation that goes exactly where it wants to go. You will not be managing an impression. You'll just be in it.
9:00 pm
No formal close
Coffee. Dessert. No one signals the end. Guests linger or leave when they're ready.
48 hrs
After
A personal note from Tracy. Any opt-in introductions arrive here — privately, from her.
The four commitments
What everyone at the table
agrees to.
01No networking. No pitching. No card exchanges. If a connection is wanted by both parties, Tracy facilitates it after — privately.
02One conversation holds the whole table — eight women moving together, not eight separate exchanges happening at once.
03What's said at the table stays at the table. This has no footnotes and no exceptions.
04Come exactly as you are. No title required. No success story needed. Just you.
Within twenty minutes you're in a conversation you'll still be thinking about next week.
