I keep kosher. At every dinner, gala, and conference in NYC, everyone eats. I don't.
I've gotten good at it. Grab water. Work the room. Pretend it doesn't bother me.
Wednesday night, that changed.
I went to a private dinner hosted by
@stanforcreators . I told Sara, who was running the event, beforehand that I keep kosher and figured there was no point staying for the meal.
She didn't shrug it off. She called the venue. She found an outside kosher caterer. She had a full 4 to 5 course meal brought in just for me.
I sat down at the dinner table with everyone else. Same courses. Same experience. For the first time.
I've gone to hundreds of events the last few years. That was the first time anyone went out of their way to make sure I could eat at the table.
Also got to meet John from Stan. We did a quick interview on faith, biblical quotes for entrepreneurs, and building a following. Awesome conversation.
Sara, I don't think you realize what that meant. Thank you.
