6 Habits of the Most Successful Female Founders

Months into interviewing founders for this podcast, Sammi noticed
something surprising: the most successful women were often
practicing the same habits, but almost none of them were the things
people usually talk about in founder profiles. Today, Sammi breaks
down six patterns she has seen repeatedly across standout founders.
The examples come directly from conversations with founders like
Amy Liu (Tower 28), Maria Davidson (Kojo), Julia Hartz
(Eventbrite), Babba Rivera (Ceremonia), Dianna Cohen (nm) Jenn
Hyman (Rent the Runway), and others who built category-defining
companies under very different circumstances—but often with
strikingly similar instincts. Sammi also shares where she is still
actively learning these lessons herself: leaving Amazon, building
her own media business, overcommitting early, tying performance too
closely to outcomes, and learning in real time what sustainable
ambition actually looks like. Follow Sammi Cohen on
