This week we chat with Justine Palefsky.

Justine is the co-founder and CEO of Kindred, where she focuses on customer experience and brand. Before founding Kindred, Justine was part of the early team at Opendoor where she launched several markets, developed the home Trade-Up product, and scaled the company’s unique Self-Tour program. With years of business experience in her back pocket, Justine is here to tell us all about it!

In this episode, the pair recall Justine’s journey from a neuroscience degree to a career centered in customer experience. Reflecting on the enlightening turning-points in her career path, Justine relates her data gathering mindset to her ability to make choices that change the trajectory of her life. Justine explains her journey to Kindred and highlights ideas and events that formed this successful “give to get” business. Conversations on watching the clock tick on, the importance of observation, and “anti-cash incentives” are just the beginning…
