Manage episode 331563020 series 2885828
Henley Vazquez is a self-proclaimed hotel junkie driven by match-making the perfect property to each traveler's unique style. Once upon a time, Henley founded and led Passported, a boutique travel agency with a focus on making family travel both accessible and enjoyable.
But the pandemic changed everything.
After rethinking how things needed to be done in the travel industry, she co-founded Fora, a new startup that empowers anyone to transform their passion for travel into meaningful revenue through flexible and fun work.
Henley fulling admits that building a startup is a team sport and explains why “being the dumbest person in the room” is actually a CEO superpower.
In this episode, you will hear more about:
- Why Henley found herself hiding in the back of a coffee shop after her small business failed…. And how being “found out” was exactly the inspiration she needed
- How Fora used the network effect to explode their waitlist to over 17,000 people
