Chapter 1: Who is Whitney Wolfe Herd and what is her story?
I am so excited for this episode today with my amazing friend, founder and CEO of Bumble, Whitney Wolf Hurd. These next few minutes together today with you, me, and Whitney are going to be so magical, so buckle up.
Because if you're someone who needs to reignite inspiration in your life today, if you need that boost to get unstuck and decide it's time to write your own rules in life and love and in your goals and dreams, if you're someone who wants to learn how you can get more love and connection and even more true friends in your life right now, today's episode is for you.
It's so easy to see someone's story on the outside or see the outcome. In Whitney's case, she has been touted as becoming one of the youngest female billionaires in the country and has graced the covers of countless magazines as a visionary and success story. But just like you and me, it's the story behind the story that's where the most inspiring and interesting parts are.
Those are the stories where we learn that we're not alone and that our own wild, crazy dreams just might be possible for us too. Whitney's incredible journey of ups and downs, of being totally on top and in, and then totally on bottom and out, and then building her own mountain again to build the life of her dreams on her terms while touching the lives of millions of others along the way.
I just know it's gonna shake your shoulders in the best way, touch your soul, and wake up that unstoppable power inside of you to change your life Coming up in this episode.
I've come to realize that self-worth does not equal net worth. But I will tell you that on paper, at my on paper wealthiest, according to society's standards, I was spiritually the poorest I've ever been. You're just going there right away. And I love this so much. And I just watched myself get decimated on the internet and turned into this scorned woman.
And just like that, at 24, it was all over. So yeah, I retreated to Uggs and staying inside and hiding. I didn't have anything. Everything had been stripped. I was turned on and I had nothing. But it's one of the best things that ever happened to me because when you have your dignity, perceived dignity, your perceived self-worth taken from you,
This kind of magical thing happens where you realize you've nothing left to fear. It's gone. So many of us are scared to start or do or try because we don't want to lose this thing, whatever that might be. But it was gone. And that's where the magic started. That was where the magic happened because the space was cleared.
This is big. This is so big. So few people get this. This is, like, one of the biggest keys to success, in my opinion. It's one of the biggest keys to success, one of the biggest keys to finding your purpose, one of the biggest keys to fulfillment.

Chapter 2: How do setbacks contribute to personal growth?
I would say spirituality is one of my number one core life priorities. And when it's nurtured, I am in an alignment. And when it's not, like when that spiritual plug comes out of the wall, I'm like, oh, whoa, where are we? I'm off kilter. So I've got to stay plugged in. And that has to, you know, you got to keep that electric cord plugged in and meditation, nature. Yeah.
genuine connection, those are the recipes for that, in my opinion.
You know, two things on that. I just had a family member, I won't say who, who has not believed in a higher power. And she just had the most profound experience, like to her shock. What happened? Where she audibly, she felt like she heard God talking to her. And she is just... kind of shook over it.
She tried to tell other family members who also don't believe and I think they just kind of like, oh, okay. What did she hear? What was it? It was something about something going on in her personal life and it was just very clear. She's never believed and I won't say her age or people will figure it out. She has never believed her whole life and she's now
absolutely certain that it was God talking to her. And she's around people that don't believe. So it's a real interesting spot for her to be in. It's profound. But I am not surprised that happened to you at 17. When you, meaning that you heard, like you had a download like that, when you and I, one of our conversations we've had
Earlier in our friendship, I will never forget just like listening to you talk and you were saying, you were saying a lot of things about me in this conversation. And I'm like, oh, wow. Like you have, I feel like you're so deeply connected. Yeah. energetically, intuitively, spiritually, and you have this gift of seeing people. You have a gift of seeing people.
And I remember just being so inspired by that and also feeling so connected to you very fast, which is not normal for me because I felt like, oh, wow, this is a whole other situation of vibration. Like, you know, and it was really—so hearing that this—that you've, you know, kind of gotten downloads and been tuned in, even before you knew what it was your whole life, not surprised at all by that.
And I think, you know, seeing everything with Bumble, I know—I want to just touch on this really quick because there's going to be people that, you know— had an idea and they went for it and it didn't work. Or they, you know, oh my gosh, with IT Cosmetics, especially right before, there were so many different things I tried and didn't work and no one, you know, all the things.
And it doesn't mean they weren't great ideas and it doesn't mean that, you know, the next thing you go for isn't gonna happen. There's so many people that have sent their book out to 25 publishers. They've all said no. Does not mean the 26th one is not going to say yes.
