Two female tech founders, host Neha Sampat, CEO of Contentstack, and Breanne Acio, CEO of Sēkr, get together over a glass of wine to discuss entrepreneurship and what it means to be a Dreammaker.

Breanne is an outdoor enthusiast who, along with her wife, decided to pack up and live life on the road in a van together. With Sēkr, Breanne is fulfilling a need in the market - a one-stop resource for travelers to find the best camping spots, read reviews, and connect with other adventurers.

Neha and Breanne discuss:

• The upsides -- and downsides -- of turning your passions into a business
• The limits of sacrifice
• Self actualization
• The challenges of raising capital and how to overcome them

The Dreammakers enjoyed a glass of wine while they talked: Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair Bourgogne Rouge Grand Chaillots 2017. It's from Burgundy, France, the birthplace of Pinot Noir. The wine has a fresh bouquet of bright red fruit mixed with light violet scents. It’s light enough to enjoy without food and comes from a 250-year-old winery. The current owner tried his hand at other businesses but the vines pulled him back in 2001 when he was 26-years-old.

Other show notes:

• Sēkr is an app that allows outdoor enthusiasts to plan trips, connect with interesting people and share their experiences.
• Anne-Marie - Then (Acoustic Version) is Breanne’s wake up song
• The 4-Hour Workweek is Breanne’s book recommendation for her 19-year-old-self
• Breanne agreed with Neha’s wine recommendation
