Summary

The past few years have challenged Whitney Wolfe Herd like never before. The Bumble CEO kept the company afloat as the pandemic halted in-person meetups, then became the youngest female founder ever to take a company public...all while in the throes of first-time motherhood!

This week on How I Built This Lab, Whitney offers perspective on leading and learning in extraordinary times. Plus, how social media may be fueling a loneliness epidemic and Whitney’s current obsession: harnessing the power of artificial intelligence in the name of love.

And check out Bumble’s origin story told in October 2017.

This episode was produced by Sam Paulson with music by Ramtin Arablouei.

It was edited by John Isabella with research by Sam Paulson. Our audio engineer was Neal Rauch.
