Jeffersonian Dinner #11
Leadership can feel lonely and sometimes, human beings need to feel the humanity in humans
Jeffersonian Dinner #11 of 2025 was last night at the beautiful Vela in River North.
How do four people (who didn't know each other) feel so comfortable being able to share their hardest experiences in life and their deepest feelings with each other?
How do we spend almost five hours with each other, on a Tuesday night, when it's not a mandatory "work event?"
Why have I spent 3.5 - 5.5 hours a night, twice a week this year, doing these Jeffersonian Dinners? (Jeffersonian Dinner #12 is tonight)
Because I get to see THE BEST aspects of humanity through these moments. These are specifically for very curated groups of my members and I genuinely love spending time with each and all of them.
I don't expect anyone outside of Orion3 to understand what I do for my "business."
I post these AFTER the different get togethers because I want people to see that human beings need other human beings.
There is a level of connection we can feel, through our consciousnes, that makes us feel connected.
If you don't believe me, just ask any of the people I tag in this and the previous posts.
Last night was another example of why I am so damn picky on who I invite to be Orion3 Members.
Thank YOU Shaan Kapoor, Andrea Marin, Erin Lavelle MBA, FPAC, and Adam Birnbaum for being there last night. 🙏🏾
I'm so grateful to have all of you as Core Members in Orion3 🙏🏾
Kelsey - we loved Vela! Thank you for making this happen 🙏🏾
