In this episode, we spoke with Brett Kopf, a serial entrepreneur at the intersection of fintech and education.

In 2011 Brett founded 'Remind', a tool designed to improve communication between teachers and parents. Remind has since grown to over 30 million active users, and is used by 80% of teachers in the United States. Remind has raised $60 million to date from the likes of Naval Ravikant and billionaire philanthropist John Doerr, and Brett remains on the company's board.

Brett's current company, Omella, is an all-in-one platform for payments, forms and signatures that Brett founded after seeing thousands of educators struggling with collecting money.

In this conversation, we talked about Brett's journey into therapy and how it helped him as a founder, the differences in approach between his first company and his second, how prioritizing his responsibilities as a father actually makes him a better founder, and much more.
