244. Elizabeth Cutler, Co-Founder of Peoplehood & SoulCycle
To say that Elizabeth Cutler has been a major influence in the wellness industry would be a drastic understatement. The SoulCycle co-founder has been name-dropped on this show dozens of times by other founders as an OG inspiration. And today, I'm catching up with her to talk about her newest company with co-founder Julie Rice, Peoplehood. Described by The New York Times as "SoulCycle without the bikes," you can think of Peoplehood's gathers (that's what they call a class) as fitness for your relationships.
Elizabeth fills us in on the benefits of this type of communication opportunity, why she believes the concept is more important than ever post-pandemic in the midst of a global loneliness crisis, and her hope for the company moving forward just a week after opening their Chelsea flagship. Plus: How she got through the emotional difficulty of stepping away from SoulCycle in 2016, and the best-practice advice she'd give any aspiring entrepreneur.
