For founders, By Founders.
Step into a judgment-free zone where real talk meets real progress. Entrepreneurs Anonymous is a meetup for founders to anonymously share the messy middle of building startups, the wins, the failures, and the things no one talks about. No pitches, no posturing, just honest conversations, peer support, and authentic connection with people who get it. We'll write our burning questions and struggles anonymously on a card, drop it in the bowl, then open up the floor to discuss.
Location: Washington Federal Building 425 Pike St Seattle Wa 98101
