The Foyer

The first gathering on the Great Dame Pathway

The Foyer is the beginning of the Great Dame Pathway.  It is a quiet book and supper gathering built around the memoir, After the Burn.  This is a place to arrive exactly as you are -- without needing to explain your estrangement, your divorce or your grief.  You are met in warmth, dignity, and good company, and through shared meals and gentle reflection, you begin to feel less alone and more settled in your own story.

What This Gathering Offers

  • A shared reading of After the Burn

  • Beautiful, nourishing meals prepared by my personal chef, Maria

  • A calm, private environment where you can speak or simply be present

  • Gentle conversation and reflection

  • A warm experience of community after estrangement

The Foyer Experience

The Foyer unfolds over several gatherings. Each evening includes a shared supper, quiet reading and space for reflection.  Full details are provided upon registration.
