Coming Next Week: Season Five

Hey everybody, it’s Jesse. Thanks so much for listening to Breakthrough Builders.

I know it’s been a second since we dropped our last episode. That’s because the team here has been preparing to share a series of recent conversations I’ve had with some really incredible guests. Starting next week, we’re back to dropping shows on Wednesdays with the start of Season Five of Breakthrough Builders. The theme of this season is Building Experiences at the intersection of Technology & Purpose. Over the next few weeks, you’ll hear from CEOs, Founders, and other top executives at some wildly cool brands like Rent the Runway, Peloton, Bonobos, VaynerMedia, LivePerson, Hydrow, and more.

My conversations this season will be with Builders who are challenging the status quo to put interesting, innovative, and really important things into the world. Products, services, and especially experiences that make a difference in people’s lives, and that are rooted in a shared sense of purpose between company and customer.

Before we ‘round the bend into this next series of conversations, I wanted to take a moment to hype up and get you hyped up about our next 2 Guests!

On Wednesday, November 3rd, you’ll hear my conversation with Jessica Kleiman, Senior Vice President of Global Communications at Peloton. Jessica and I talked about the work she and her team have been doing to build and cast Peloton as a new kind of company that’s purposefully and wonderfully blurring the lines between fitness, community, and entertainment.

Then, on Wednesday, November 10th, you’ll hear my conversation with Rent the Runway Co-Founder Jenny Fleiss. Jenny has had a hand in creating some of the most inspiring and inclusive innovations at the intersection of fashion and technology over the past decade. The lessons she learned, starting and then running logistics for Rent the Runway, are a must-listen for any Builder with the ambition to build breakthrough experiences and create emotional connections with customers.

Keep sharing your input on the show, as well as any suggestions for Guests you would like me to have on!
