    I learned (at the third location) that there’re only 5 Cafe Réveille’s in total and only 4 in SF! So I’ve been to 75% of them in one day... coincidence or ?

    Three meetings in three different Cafe Réveille’s! I did not suggest any of them. Should I invest in them as a VC? Seems like they’re taking off 🚀

    👏👏👏 This change seems small but it’s transformational — bye bye pay day lending, check caching, overdraft, NSF... maybe not yet, but I’m hopeful 😇

    I've been waiting for this announcement ever since we started 6 years ago. I couldn't be more excited! Flexible Pay is now LIVE and soon everyone would be able to get paid whenever they want 💸 =>

    5) There’s also a female thesis here. Women are underserved by traditional tech platforms and products bc they’re mainly built by and funded by men. We have deep needs for connection and empathy and the whole self and all the other things that need an avenue to express

    4) This is how brands of the future will be built. Not through ever-rising costs of paid advertising on Facebook / Instagram, but through organic, viral, distributed fanbase that have the opportunity to share with others through experiences

    3) Trends like a) we are all seeking purpose to our lives, b) rise of working for ourselves / gig economy, c) increased geographical mobility, d) worrying news in the media are supporting the proliferation of coworking spaces as well as the need for multi-faceted connections

    2) I deleted Facebook and Instagram two weeks ago and it’s been wonderful. It’s refreshing that nobody now advertises to me 💁🏻‍♀️ and I’m more grounded and more present
