'The Most Electrifying Party In Town' FORBES 
'This new underground jazz speakeasy is the epitome of cool' TIMEOUT
 Daddy Rabbit is a uniquely immersive live music event at New York City's coolest speakeasy. Pulling together classically trained pianists, bassists and horn players with jazz singers, MCs and beatboxers, this is an ever-changing carousel of world-class sound. The show mixes original compositions with unique interpretations of Soul, Jazz, Rock, Funk and RnB classics. 
For a short period you can use code Patch40 at checkout for a 40% discount on tickets at <a href="https://daddy-rabbit.turntabletickets.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">daddy-rabbit.turntabletickets.com/</a>
On&nbsp;Friday May 15, virtuosos pianist Misha Piatigorsky leads a quintet of master storytellers, where the boundaries between artist and audience dissolve into pure rhythm. Rahj Mason’s magnetic vocals will weave through the bright, soaring calls of Tatum Greenblatt’s trumpet and the fluid, silver lines of Tai Kriss’s flute. Grounding the evening’s electricity, Peter Slavov’s deep, walking bass finds its pulse in the intricate, driving heartbeat of Samvel Sarkisyan’s drums, promising a performance that is as much a shared heartbeat as it is a world-class jazz experience.
An intimate setting in the round, it's a show where you can literally stand with the band. 
It’s going to be a stunning session and it’s selling really fast so book now to avoid wistful pangs of despair. 
Doors at 7pm. Show at 8pm

The 4-Step Strategy to Attract an Equal Partner Without the App Fatigue
<a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dating-is-dead-why-nycs-most-successful-women-like-you-are-still-single-tickets-1988244035432?" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">BUY&nbsp;YOUR&nbsp;TICKETS&nbsp;HERE</a>
The more successful you become, the harder dating gets. You already know this. What you don't know is exactly why — and what to do about it.
You dread opening your DMs. Blind dates feel like a second job interview. You've taken more breaks from dating than you can count. And you're starting to wonder if love is just not in the cards for you.
Here's the truth: there are more than 30 reasons why dating is so hard in New York for a woman like you. Most workshops only cover 3 factors (time, dating apps, and a shrinking pool of men). Not only is this the only workshop covering them all, but it's the only workshop giving you real, practical solutions to overcome them, step-by-step.
Dating Is DEAD: How NYC's Most Successful Women Are (Finally) Finding Love—And You Can Too is a 5-hour live masterclass and workshop for successful single women in NYC who are done being razor-sharp in every area of their lives except their love life. No recycled advice. A full reset — built specifically for modern, high-achieving NYC women who want an equal, emotionally intelligent, values-matched partner.
This is an investment in a strategic approach to your love life, designed to equip you with actionable insights and a supportive community.
WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH
✔ We don't just talk about the 3 reasons you feel powerless in love (app algorithms, time, and a smaller pool of men). We discuss the 8 patterns and 30 + reasons the most successful women struggle in dating—but more importantly, tools you can use to overcome all of these patterns.
✔ Clarity on the patterns keeping you stuck — people-pleasing, over-functioning, tolerating misaligned values, and more — and a real plan to break them
✔ A values-aligned partner profile built around your ambitions and your vision for your life, not a generic checklist
✔ A practical dating strategy you can implement immediately, designed for feminist women who refuse to compromise on what matters
✔ Real connection with a community of like-minded single women in New York who are also done shrinking — and done doing this alone
THIS IS FOR YOU IF:
→ You're a successful, independent woman who wants a real relationship on your terms
→ You're exhausted by dating apps, situationships, and emotionally unavailable men
→ Your values aren't a talking point — they show up in how you live and who you are — and you want a partner who can say the same
→ You want to date intentionally, attract an equal, and stop feeling behind in your love life
YOUR GUIDE
Expert guidance from Sophie Kaemmerle, a dating coach and professional matchmaker who specializes in modern, high-achieving women and has worked with executives, doctors, founders, and other successful women. With Sophie's expertise, clients don't just leave with better dates — they leave with a clearer understanding of themselves, what they actually need, and the confidence to recognize it when it's in front of them.

TESTIMONIALS
"Sophie is a keen listener, highly observant, and incredibly empathetic. She takes the time to intentionally guide you through your core dating philosophies, and has helped me uncover things I had no idea existed in my own perspective."
"Sophie is an exceptional NYC matchmaking coach! Through her professionalism, attentive listening, and wise advice, I moved forward confidently in a relationship, overcoming doubts and laying a solid foundation. Her approach is both human and effective, blending empathy with practical tools. Highly recommend for tailored advice and support."
PITCH-A-FRIEND
Your Next Connection Awaits! At the end of the masterclass, we do something no other dating event does. You'll have the opportunity to champion a high-value single male friend to the group — vouched for, vetted, and introduced by a woman who knows him well. Real connections. No apps. No swiping. Please see the agenda in "More" for details about this segment of the Masterclass.
