Haim rocks.  I've had the wonderful pleasure of working with him on my deals.  He's not only a great attorney (and insanely bright), but also a ton of fun.  On this episode, we talk about his entrepreneurial path to become a Partner, his rad wife and family, and his many side hustles and interests.

Christine's story epitomizes why I started this podcast.  We chat a lot about mindset and building a meaningful life.  She also shares the "rocking chair test" and how it pushed her to dive even deeper to risk it all. If you're in a job right now that is just kind of meh, give this one a good listen.  I guarantee that you'll find meaning.  If not, I'll give you a full refund:)

Good guys CAN and DO finish first.  Curtis is living proof of this.  

For someone so accomplished, his humility, mindset and values are so incredibly refreshing.  Curtis shares his unexpected upbringing, his partnership with his kick ass wife Jamie, his joys of being a dad, his path to CFO, and some amazing leadership advice.  I'd want Curtis on my team!

This is my first power couple interview and I chat with my friends, Pratima and Abhinav.  It certainly has not always been easy for them, but their partnership is what makes it work.  They share a lot with us, including tips on how they juggle two big careers, two young kids, and two people very much in love with each other, all under one roof.  They keep in real.  Amen.

Kat takes us through her childhood, what is was like to grow up with “Darma and Greg” parents, her values, and her approach to identifying the best companies and entrepreneurs. As a Managing Partner of Core Innovation Capital, her goal for the firm is get a look at every single early stage fin tech deal and to never miss an opportunity, so much that if they do, they have a Wall of Shame.

Starting at a young age, Matt has always charted his own path, directed by his insatiable curiosities and interests. We talk about how he grew up, what his parents instilled in him, his move from the Midwest to San Francisco, his mentors, and how he started Haven. Matt makes shipping cool.

Lynsey shares with us the twists and turns that got her to Goldman Sachs, the many career changes that she made within her 15 years at the firm, and her eventual rise to become the CFO of Calysta (venture backed startup headquartered in Menlo Park that’s developing high nutrition products primarily for the aquaculture industry). The podcasts ends with Lynsey sharing her challenges with balancing a high powered career and a personal life.
