Emily Shimwell

Founder, Dine Wilder

Emily Shimwell is a Yorkshire-born storyteller, experience designer, and founder of Dine Wilder. She is known for gathering people beautifully, saying the thing others are thinking, and reminding people to jump before they feel ready.

Through Dine Wilder, she has brought hundreds of women out from behind their screens and back into real life - creating spaces where confidence returns, conversation flows, and genuine connection takes root.

From long table dinners to sold-out panels and conferences, Emily creates experiences people feel, not just attend. Her work blends warmth, honesty, storytelling, and bold energy - leaving people thinking bigger, feeling braver, and a little more alive than when they arrived.
