Last week, I sat at a dinner table with an 82-year-old motorcycle-riding Texan and a 17-year-old prodigy in astrophysics who had never met before.

I watched as the elder’s eyes grew wide when the teenager spoke passionately about Einstein’s theory of relativity. The reverse happened when the elder spoke about the poetry and life-affirming philosophy he discovered fixing and riding motorcycles.

It was a beautiful thing to witness, and it’s at the heart of why I partnered with Chip Conley of Modern Elder Academy and Marc Freedman of Encore to create Generations Over Dinner — a global invitation to have meaningful conversations that value all perspectives across the age continuum.

We recently cast this idea into the world and thousands of people are already answering the call and organizing dinners across the planet. Our community platform helps people host or find a dinner party to join, and our incredible team of partners (including Encore!) and advisors created comprehensive dinner scripts for your table.

How many generations can you bring to the table? Join the movement and sign up today!
