Show notes

Arielle Zuckerberg, General Partner at Long Journey Ventures, joins Jennie to discuss what it really means to lead from a place of love. From her formative years in college through her journey into venture capital, Arielle reveals how she recovered from perfectionism and learned that vulnerability, not polish, is what builds trust. She opens up about her brother's sudden fame, the friends who showed up and those who didn't, and why surrounding yourself with high-integrity people is everything. Arielle shares her philosophy on difficult conversations (she's the "Grim Reaper" of her friend group), the power of seeing people's potential, and how her mother taught her that love is infinite. She also talks candidly about motherhood, partnership, community, and why asking for support is what allows us to rise into our zone of genius.
