Today, we speak with Andrew Adams, Founder and CEO of Headway, a platform building a new mental healthcare system by making it simple for therapists to accept insurance and for patients to find affordable care.
Andrew comes to the problem first as a patient and then as a builder, grounding the company’s mission in lived experience and a focus on practical fixes to cost and access.
Founded in 2019, Headway now powers 600,000+ appointments per month, has raised over $325 million from leading investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Thrive Capital, Accel, GV, and more. Headway partners with major health plans across all 50 states to operate one of the country’s largest insurance-accepting therapist networks.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
