In this episode of Boss Files, it's been so much fun to have grown up together and to be building these companies together and to really live it together.

We're both building businesses and they're at different stages, but the demands and a lot of the challenges and a lot of the ups and the downs are very, very similar.

Neil and Rachel Blumenthal, the two are highly successful entrepreneurs, and they're married.

Neil Blumenthal is the co-CEO and co-founder of Eyewear Company Warby Parker.

Since its launch, nearly 10 years ago, the brand has grown to a current valuation of $2 billion.

Most recently, she's the founder and CEO of Children's Apparel

Maker Rockets of Awesome. She tells me how different her experience fundraising was from her

husband. It was shocking to me going through the capital raising process with venture capital

Ever. Ever. How Rachel says she navigates these sexist questions while fundraising.

Plus, what is the most important piece of data each of their companies have on us, their customers?

And do they plan to take their companies public?

And balancing it all while raising two young children together.

Here is my conversation with Neil and Rachel Blumenthal.
