Entreprenista

The Process of Selling a Company with Nathalie Walton of Expectful


Listen Later

Nathalie always had an Entreprenista spirit, but it wasn’t until she found a meditation app during her high-risk pregnancy that she realized how she wanted to implement that spirit. After she made it to term with her pregnancy––she credits Expectful’s meditations––she decided to join forces with Expectful and helped grow the brand. 


Today, we sit down with Nathalie Walton, co-founder and CEO of Expectful, a holistic wellness app for hopeful, expecting, and new moms. Nathalie shares with us what she’s learned about fundraising, how to sell a business, tips for building partnerships, and so much more. 


“I came across this app called Expectful. Expectful, at the time, was a meditation app for pregnancy. And even though I've been meditating for over 20 years, when I started doing Expectful meditations, something in me stabilized. And I actually made it to term, which was something that none of my doctors thought was possible.” - Nathalie Walton
