About this listen

When you’ve done everything “right” — the education, the pedigree, the experience — yet women still raise a fraction of the capital, it forces a hard question: why?


That happened to Jarah Euston, but she didn’t accept the numbers at face value. Even at Wharton — now majority female — women founders raise just a small share of venture funding.


So Jarah took action. She helped build a powerful network connecting female founders and funders, while also building WorkWhile — a labor marketplace giving frontline workers control over their schedules and livelihoods.


This conversation dives into venture capital inequity, sponsorship vs. mentorship, motherhood, and what it really takes to change systems from the inside.


Have you seen these barriers show up in your career or business?
