Listen "Ep #142 Living the Authentic Life with Tracy Dieterich"
Episode Synopsis
This week, the Contessa sits down with longtime friend and Houston community leader Tracy Dieterich — a philanthropist, activist, husband, and proud girl dad whose world revolves around his family and his passion for giving back.
From his roots in a modest household to becoming Senior Vice President, partner, and shareholder in the commercial insurance industry, Tracy has always believed we have a responsibility to serve others. His journey was shaped early on by his mentor and Big Brother, Kelly, who sparked his love of travel and broadened his horizons. Though he didn’t take his first trip to Europe until age 32, Tracy has since explored the world while dedicating his life to building meaningful relationships and making an impact at home.
Tracy shares how connection is at the heart of everything he does — from founding the Men’s Toolbox Lunch to encourage men to gather vulnerably and authentically, to championing causes like Big Brothers Big Sisters, Dress for Success Houston, the Houston Symphony, and the Boy Scouts of America. He and his wife, Valerie, will even co-chair the upcoming Dress for Success Gala together.
Tune in to hear how Tracy has built a life centered on connection, purpose, and generosity — and why he believes true success comes from giving back.
