Why We Exist

Generational wealth isn't just money — it's the literacy, the information, the systems — the quiet knowledge of how it all works. Families that have it pass it down. Families building it for the first time have all the risk, and none of the inheritance.

8 of Stones was founded by Renna Al-Yassini, Kristen Brillantes, & Berna Anat — three first-generation breadwinners & serial entrepreneurs who built financial lives without a map, then built the company they needed. Renna leads product & design — a product design executive with 15+ years leading teams at Google, Twitter, & Meta. Kristen heads operations, bringing design-ops leadership from Google Ventures & Stripe & her current seat at Character Capital. Berna heads marketing & community — bestselling author of Money Out Loud (HarperCollins), founder of HeyBerna.
