Female Founder World

Nadya Okamoto is on the show!! She built a nonprofit at 16, co-founded a period care company that's in Target and Walmart, and is now the cofounder and CMO at Pie, a social network powering your IRL connections started by Bonobos founder Andy Dunn.

While building her companies, Nadya's also built a huge audience. She has 6 million followers across platforms.

My favorite parts of this conversation are Nadya's masterclass on how to execute a creator equity partnership, offline and IRL business ideas, and hearing her weigh up the tradeoffs of building a very big public profile.

There's a marketing trend that has been steadily growing inside the creator economy for the last two years, and in 2026 it has officially gone mainstream. Brands are spending millions on it. Most consumers have no idea it exists. And it could be one of the most cost-effective awareness channels available to founders right now. It's called clipping and we're going to break down exactly what it is and how it works in this week's episode of the Build In Public Challenge Presented by Adobe Express.

Jasmine, Nat, and Paige are back in the group chat digging into why Alex Cooper's beverage brand Unwell shut down right as her media company hit a $500 million valuation, and what that says about creator led consumer brands. They also unpack the Phia fallout, celebrity investing on cap tables, and whether creators owe brands deliverables once they've got equity. Plus, they break down Whatnot's $20 billion live shopping valuation and share this week's smart swap.
