And So, She Left: Wisdom from Women Beyond the Corporate World

Jackie and Cassie Collier on Fun, Business, and Board Games


Listen Later

Cassie and Jackie Collier LOVE board games. Growing up in a small Pennsylvanian town, playing board games helped them to strengthen their bond as sisters and make new friends. Despite going in very different directions professionally, the Colliers eventually discovered that their shared passion for fun and games went far beyond the board. When they created a custom one-off board game for their family as a Christmas gift, they realized their potential to provide similar experiences for others. They realized the potential of Bundle.  

The Colliers talk to Katherin about learning the value of fun at an early age, and how working together as siblings has helped to strengthen their symbiotic personal and professional relationship. They also discuss the power of being both under and overestimated, the most bizarre customer prompt they’ve received when designing a game, a risky pitch meeting gone horribly wrong, and why having fun is such a key part of the entrepreneurial journey.
