CNBC Make It spoke to Cahn about her time in Big Tech, being a working single mother and more. This is what she said.I spent 15 years of my career at the tech companies like Google and YouTube and AOL running video. And what I learned coming out of these Big Tech companies is that they do not prepare you for entrepreneurship at all. They prepare you for a life of luxury — car services and resources.
One thing I did take away from Google is how to hire top talent. You could have the best idea in the world but if you don't have the best team, you're not going to make it.Everyone's suffering in different ways and at different times. My two co-founders and I have all covered for each other. But on a personal note, I feel like a parenting failure. Whether I am or not, it remains to be seen, but teenagers arethan they've ever been. They're on social media more than they've ever been. It's terrible for their mental health. It's hard for mental health as adults and we have fully developed frontal lobes. Imagine what it's like for a 13-year-old.
I have to get my kids up for Zoom school. So I naturally wake up at 7 a.m. I know you're not supposed to do this, but I check my socials and the news from bed for 15 minutes. I get up, let my dog out, make coffee.
