Coming up in this episode... Whitney, am I crying? I am crying my lashes off. On the outside, the world watched this incredible woman with an 18-month-old son on her hip take Bumble public. I remember seeing it everywhere. I remember you and I weren't friends yet at that time, but I remember seeing it and seeing the confetti everywhere and your yellow blazer and, like, all the things and your... everywhere on the cover of every magazine.

Everyone is just watching you with so much awe and inspiration and excitement. You have shared that while that all looked one way on the outside, and I think so many of us will see that and be like oh my gosh it feels like cinderella you know at the ball it feels like a fairy tale coming it feels like the coolest moment in the world and you say that was actually one of the worst days of your life definitely i went home and cried after the ipo why was i crying you have a download at 17 saying this is your purpose when you're literally at 17 on a plane of the lowest moments in your life trying to come out of an abusive relationship and now we're sitting here and millions of people have been impacted by the offering of bumble about the you know the what you've imagined and what you helped create i will share one story of something that changed my life this is so wild and if you're not
If you're not a believer, you should probably go take a coffee break." And I thought, okay, this is it. This is literally hell on earth. She said, I was in a toxic marriage for a very long time, and I read about you. I read about what you did with Bumble, and it gave me the courage to leave my marriage And once I had rebuilt my strength and my self-confidence, I downloaded Bumble because of you. And I've never met anyone with my fiance's name. And he is the love of my life. And he is wonderful. After an abusive marriage, which is basically my whole story. It was my whole purpose. If that's not the universe telling you that, you know, check. The intention was pure and good. I don't know what else is.
Jamie Kern Lima 3:01
She's the one to tell you you're gonna be okay. Yeah. When you literally also don't know if you're dying. That's right. Have you ever or do you ever now deal with imposter syndrome?
Not anymore. No. I was riddled in it. I climbed up to the top of this mountain and then I crashed down. The stock fell 80%. I stopped getting invited to the cool conferences. I said, oh yeah. And hell, it hurt. It hurt. Many a tears were cried when those invites didn't roll in. And that's where I'm at now, Jamie. You can't hurt my feelings anymore. You can't. I went through some version of like an ego death. And now I'm like, let's go. Let's lead with love. I'm not leading with fear. Not gonna lead with insecurity. Not gonna lead with like, what's someone gonna think about me? I do not care. Genuinely. And I can say that sincerely. I think you can tell I don't bullshit you. Like you get what you get with me. And I wasn't there a year ago.
