Kim Kaupe, the Co-Founder of The Superfan Company, joins the show to share her journey starting her business and getting on the hit TV show, Shark Tank<\/em>. Kim and I connected over social media and I was blown away by the stories from work she shared on Instagram. She was happy to host the interview at her amazing WeWork space in NYC (see picture below), even after I accidentally spilled water all over the table as soon as we sat down (WHOOPS!). Kim is one of the most thoughtful, creative, and fun leaders you’ll ever meet and has built up the most impressive client list you’ll ever see – I’m not kidding. This episode covers everything from behind-the-scenes of Shark Tank <\/em>to why creativity comes outside of work. Here’s a small sample of what you will hear in this episode:<\/p>\n
