How to Build Wealth Through Relationships (Even If You Don't Know Where to Start)

In this powerful and visionary episode, Tracy Holland interviews Rachel Springate, co-founder of Muse Capital — an early-stage venture fund focused on consumer tech, women's health, childcare, elder care, and other underserved yet high-growth markets.

Rachel shares her remarkable journey from hospitality and media to building one of the most respected venture firms in Silicon Valley — all without a traditional finance background. Her superpower? Relationship capital and radical conviction.

From co-founder Assia's health journey to breakthrough investments in women's health, Rachel offers an inside look into what it takes to lead, scale, and rewrite the narrative for women in VC.
