Nikki Pechet is a mom of three who helped scale Thumbtack into a $3B business. She is recognized on Inc. Magazine’s 2024 Female Founders 250 list, and she is the Co-founder and CEO of Homebound, a company started after California’s devastating wildfires and now transforming how homes are built across the U.S.
In this episode, Nikki joins me to talk about the raw and real side of building a company from scratch, why most female founders stay small, and how you can choose ideas that actually win.
We dive into the truth about what it takes to grow a big business, and Nikki opens up about the fear, doubt, pressure, and emotional weight most founders never talk about. Nikki also reveals exactly how female founders can stop being stuck in markets that limit their potential and scale into a huge company.
Nikki explains how you can know which ideas to grow and which ones to walk away from. You will learn how to handle advisors and partnerships the right way, how to keep going even when the stress does not let up, and how to manage when you still have a family at home depending on you.
If you are building anything, whether you are just starting out or deep in the grind, join us today to understand every factor needed to build a company that matters.
