Three curated options per decision — never forty tabs. Every contract negotiated, every commission rebated to you.

A staff of four runs the show from a channel you never hear. The only decision you make after noon is champagne or negroni.
"At our own wedding, my husband and I sat down for dinner. Every married couple knows how rare that sentence is."
