This week, Alex and Mary Ann had Sara Mauskopf on the show, the CEO and co-founder of the childcare marketplace, Winnie, and a former Postmates and Twitter denizen. Here’s what we got into:

  • The progress of Winnie over time, and how it found its niche in the childcare market
  • The state of care as a venture-backable category, and where startups can find the most impact and business results
  • The reported issues at Papa and the pressures of fundraising-driven growth in care-oriented markets
  • And, of course, why care work is not given its full due and value in our society.

We had a blast with this one. Thank you for sticking with Equity for all these years. We’ll see you live at Disrupt!
