Calm/Storm Ventures launched a new podcast series for female co-founders and everyone interested in super early-stage startup fundraising. Our 7th episode is featuring Ariana Alexander-Sefre, CEO and Co-Founder of Spoke which is breaking the mould of mindfulness by leveraging music and lyricism to help the demographic that is most underserved by existing solutions - gen Z men.

Our hosts for this episode are Michael, the founding Partner at Calm/Storm Ventures and Lina Wenner, Associate Partner at firstminute capital - a UK-based Pan-European Seed investor. 

This is one of the longest episodes ever but we hope you'll enjoy listening to Ariana's passionate pitch and the ensuing discussion about the existing mindfulness products and trends. Special thanks to Spoke for making the samples of their sessions available in the episode. This podcast is not only for first-time female co-founders but for everyone interested in a super early-stage venture.
