Reacts: New Mother vs Founder: Are the two incompatible? w/ Amy Sun

Reacts: New Mother vs Founder: Are the two incompatible? w/ Amy Sun

🚨WARNING: Controversial topic alert!🚨


Historically, startup culture has forced people to create a professional facade. A facade that inhibits the ability to reveal any kind of distraction or humanity that might weaken your position or your professionalism in a corporate setting.


Challenging that trend is Amy Sun. Amy is CEO and Founder of Briefly AI and also a new mother. Before running her own startup, Amy has a storied career including such roles as Partner at Sequoia and Product Manager at both Facebook and Uber where she worked with Chris.


They discuss the difficulties and opportunities of being a new mother while also being a founder and running your own startup. The logistical challenges, the implicit and explicit biases and even the counterintuitive benefits.


This episode is sure to provide some 🌶️🌶️🌶️ discussions.
