Leading a team, navigating growth, and looking for sharper conversations than you get at a meetup then this is intended for you.

The Idea

The Idea

We’re all leading teams, growing orgs, juggling delivery, people, and strategy, but it’s rare to have a space where you can just talk openly with someone who’s in a similar spot.


That’s why we started this:
A monthly lunch, just you and another dev leader.
No agenda. No pressure. Just a conversation between peers.


You might swap ideas, compare org setups, or vent about hiring pains.
Or you might just talk about life. That’s great too.
