Warby Parker
In our latest podcast episode, we speak with Rachel Blumenthal. Rachel is the Founder and CEO of Rockets of Awesome. Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
We wanted to talk with Rachel, because she has already had such an impressive entrepreneurial career, starting and growing three brands before even reaching the age of forty! Who does that?!
Rachel went to Tufts University, worked in PR at Yves Saint Laurent, & has since founded 3 companies: Rachel Leigh LLC, Cricket’s Circle, & Rockets of Awesome, the first of which she started at age 23. She is the wife of Neil Blumenthal, the co- founder of Warby Parker, and together they have two kids.
The story behind the name of the brand, plus other interesting tidbits like her marketing strategy and business model (which are brilliant), are all in this episode. If you have entrepreneurial dreams, or want to learn about the coolest children’s brand going, or if you simply want to hear how she balances life with a busy career and being a wife & mother, we have it all here for you.
Rachel has had an incredible career, & we are so excited to share her story with you; besides being such an accomplished businesswoman, she is a lovely human, and we think she is absolutely “awesome”! Below are some of our favorites from the Rockets of Awesome collection!!
