Fostering connection among employees and company leaders is hard enough to do within brick and mortar walls.Building company culture and forging employee relationships without the four walls is a challenge many companies are failing at today.Our guest, Dave Wilkin, is an award-winning serial LGBTQ+ entrepreneur who grew up in a small, rural town, and experienced firsthand that mentors and meaningful connections were critical to accessing career-progressing and skills development opportunities. He solved this problem by launching Ten Thousand Coffees (10KC) and building the only all-in-one talent experience platform for inclusive mentoring, employee connectivity, and skills development. Dave also helps equity-seeking groups leverage 10KC’s platform to access critical mentoring and career progressing networks through some of the largest social impact organizations in the world including ALPFA, Ascend, Black Professionals in Tech Network and more.Stay tuned for an inspirational fireside chat with an extraordinary entrepreneur on the Startup Life Show!To learn more about 10KC, please visit: https://www.tenthousandcoffees.com/Thank you for tuning in to the show - let me know what you think of Dave's startup story in the comments - cheers!Ande ♥https://andelyons.com#inspirationalstories #startupstories #startuplife JOIN STARTUP LIFE LIVE MEETUP GROUPGet an alert whenever I post a new show!https://bit.ly/StartupLifeLIVEWBENC ApplicationSend me an email: [email protected] WITH ME ONLINE: https://twitter.com/AndeLyonshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/andelyons/ https://www.instagram.com/ande_lyons/ TikTok: @andelyonsSPONSORSHIPIf you resonate with the show’s mission of amplifying diverse founder voices, please reach out to me to learn more about making an impact through sponsoring the Startup Life Show!

You are not built to do life alone.But how do you get the real support you need to navigate the real life events you’re sailing through?This delicious conversation on the Startup Life Show is with Tamar Blue - the fab female co-founder of MentalHappy – an online health platform that provides access to peer support and group therapy, especially for people of low-income, underrepresented populations, and people living in rural areas.What I especially loved about this conversation was how Tamar’s life beautifully prepared her to be the ideal co-founder of MentalHappy!From her hugely successful volunteer program in high school called Safety Ambassadors to her dual degree in econonmics and sociology, to her 10 years in corporate environments teaching her how to drive revenue and manage gross profits, to addressing her own challenges with anxiety and panic attacks and being bullied as a first-generation Haitian American.
