Building a World-Changing Startup with Cindy Gallop
Cindy Gallop is the creator of MakeLoveNotPorn, the world’s first and only user-generated, human curated social sex video-sharing platform. Cindy believes that normalizing and socializing sex makes it easier for others to talk about it openly and honestly and promotes consent, communication, and strong sexual values and behaviors. Cindy is a brand and business innovator, consultant, coach, and keynote speaker as well as a Board Advisor for multiple organizations including Handi, Awkward Essentials, and Pomp and Whimsy.
Cindy joins us today to discuss how she is creating the safest adult video streaming platform on the internet while combatting rape culture - one video at a time. She shares what inspired her to create MakeLoveNotPorn and the mission and values that continue to drive her. We discuss how her platform helps people worldwide talk openly about sex and the challenges she faced when working to secure venture capital and advertisers. We also discuss her perspective on the “No Hour Work Week” and why she believes female entrepreneurs need ‘champions’ instead of mentors.
“We don’t have enough role models in society for women (and men) that demonstrate that you can live your life very differently to the way that you’re expected to and still be amazingly happy.” - Cindy Gallop
