Don't hate; collaborate.
I sincerely hope the side effect of this Fintech bear market is a little more collaboration. It's not Fintech infrastructure providers vs. each other or Banks vs. Fintech companies.
It's us vs. the problem.
And the problem is consumers are struggling.

Find yourself an employer that values your pregnancy • 11:FS
As I sit here trying to write something strictly about fintech, there’s only one thing on my mind: how important it is to have an employer that truly values pregnant employees.

This week’s hidden track
Changing hearts and minds — one story at a time
It all started with an invite for coffee: a conversation with no expectations — other than a simple meet and greet. A chat turned into twelve episodes of conversations around longevity tech.
All it took was a spark.
An acquaintance who took a chance on a topic that was not, and still is not, mainstream.
