Today, we're doing things a little differently! I'm bringing one of my favorite recent conversations from The Running Interview Show over to the podcast, featuring Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe Herd. In this episode we walked with Whitney in Central Park (yes, we both walk and run for the running show). 

Whitney launched Bumble at just 25 years old, transforming the dating industry with the idea that women should make the first move. She went on to take the company public in 2021, becoming one of the most recognizable female entrepreneurs in tech.

And with Bumble recently announcing a $1.3 billion deal to go private, there's never been a more interesting time to revisit her story.

During our walk, we talked about her entrepreneurial journey, building and leading a billion-dollar business, the lessons she's learned along the way, and how she sees the future of dating and connection evolving.

Our conversations on The Running Interview Show are often much longer than the clips you see on social media, so I'm excited to start sharing more of these moments with you here on the podcast.

Hope you enjoy this one!

Post Run High

Post Run High is a podcast about honest conversations that happen when people slow down and let their guard drop.

Hosted by Kate Mackz, the show brings together founders, creators, athletes, artists, and thinkers to talk about performance, identity, pressure, and the moments that shape who we become. Recorded after a run, walk, or shared movement, these conversations tap into the clarity that often comes when the body is tired and the mind is open.

This isn’t a show about success on paper. It’s about what people carry behind the scenes — how they cope with doubt, navigate change, stay disciplined, and keep going when things get hard. Post Run High is a space for reflection, perspective, and real insight you can take into your own life.
