A podcast for entrepreneurial women: founders, builders, changemakers shaping the world we live in.
Female founders, investors and startup ecosystem enablers share their stories, knowledge, fears and failures, moments of growth and pieces of advice.
With these conversations, we want to inspire more women to build their own businesses.
#24: Should founders sacrifice their private life and relationships? - Jenny Holmström
If you launch your own business, just forget about having a life. It’s only work, no play. And your friends and family will need to accept it. This notion is particularly popular in the startup world but how much truth is in it?
We asked Jenny Holmström, CEO and Co-Founder of Coupleness, an app helping couples to develop healthy habits for happy relationships.
Jenny and Darya examine
- why maintaining healthy relationships is a key success factor for entrepreneurs and well, just everyone,
- how couples can navigate the challenges of early-stage venture building: what can go wrong and how to prevent such pitfalls,
- and Jenny’s own story of prioritising work to the detriment of her family life which brought her to building Coupleness.
