Before dating apps became the default way to meet your next fling, or your forever, Whitney Wolfe Herd was rewriting the rules of love and tech. From her early days helping launch Tinder, to the explosive fallout that led her to create Bumble, Whitney’s story is one of ambition, lawsuits, billion-dollar valuations, and the rise (and fall?) of the “girlboss” era. In this episode, we unpack how she built a dating empire by asking women to make the first move, how she navigated Silicon Valley’s boys’ club, and what her journey says about feminism, business, and the culture of swiping right.
