Kristen Anderson, CEO at Catch.co
First thing’s first: episodes on Spotify & Apple
Happy Valentine’s Week, LOVERS! Kristen Anderson is the only guest we’d allow to go live on this day of adoration, and she didn’t disappoint. We cover Kristen’s past lives as a cog in the tech machine, Tech layoffs, and the philosophy behind building early stage startups.
“But Zach! Why aren’t you talking about Fintech??”
Because that’s what you think about 24/7, Kristen and I’ve decided to discuss money movement, pregnancy brain, scary movies….Okay, we DO talk about Fintech, check the show notes below!
The main take away from this conversation for me is to optimize for interesting over everything.
In other exciting news this week, we’re welcoming a new sponsor to the family, Navan (Formerly TripActoins), The only integrated Business Travel & Expense solution. They just integrated chatgpt. It’s one of the fastest growing companies out there and we’re super excited to have them on board. Check ‘em out.
