It’s fast, intuitive, and built for the way people actually shop today.Julie, of course, knows this space well. A seasoned leader in commerce and tech, she’s held executive roles at Sephora, Nordstrom, and Stitch Fix — and founded THE YES, which was acquired by Pinterest in 2022. In this episode, she shares what sparked the idea for Daydream, why AI is the future of retail discovery, and what she’s learned from building (and scaling) multiple consumer companies.A must-listen for anyone curious about the future of fashion, AI, entrepreneurship, and what it takes to build something truly transformative.
