From the Archives: Tetiana Poudel: Returning to Ukraine

In light of recent news, I decided to re-release our episode with Tetiana Poudel, the Ukrainian woman who returned home to help with the war effort. Over these past few months, it has felt difficult to grasp onto actions that feel meaningful when it seems like everything is out of our hands. While this episode won’t repair what is happening, I hope it will give a face and a voice to the war. In this emotional episode, you’ll hear Tetiana recount her personal experience as a Ukrainian civilian volunteer working to help her father’s unit in the war. She explains her decision to leave her job at Spotify in Silicon Valley to return home to her family and help in whatever way she could. Now, she has started a venture capital firm, founded to source and nurture pre-seed stage defense tech companies with an impact on Ukraine’s victory.
