Welcome to Sunday Nice Things.

Today's episode is a rerun, but a really relevant one.

This is an episode that's a deep dive into the world of a 16-year-old TikTok star who wants to change the industry as we know it

through my hacker house agency, ensuring that the next 20 billionaires are females under 25.

I wrote her back right away and said,
