In this episode, Connie sits down with Brynn Putnam, the former CEO of Mirror, and VC Ben Lerer to discuss why founders – and investors – are getting excited about consumer-focused startups for the first time in a handful of years. Putnam already turned her home fitness company into a $500 million success story. Now she’s building something new that she believes will help families and friends connect and put down their devices. Meanwhile, Lerer discusses what drew him to write the first check for Mirror, why he would follow Putnam into any company, and where he sees the consumer industry going from here.
