Episode 202: The Hustle Behind Poshmark's Tracy Sun

Tracy Sun is a fashion-tech powerhouse changing the way we shop. She is the Co-Founder and VP of Merchandising at Poshmark, a fashion re-selling platform that supports sustainability and community. In episode two, you’ll hear from Tracy about her multiple life pivots and learnings, including why it’s OK to not really know where you’re going.   Tracy walks us through how she went from studying to become a neurosurgeon, to moving across the country without a network, to her first YOLO moment that she now calls “one of the most spectacular failures” of her life, and ultimately, Poshmark! Listen to this episode to hear the #BTS of growing a team and gain insight into how Tracy maintains her calm and collected nature through the ups & downs. We’ll also hear from LIVELY ambassador and plant doctor/stylist Maryah Greene, who founded Greene Piece to help match people with the right plants for their space and landed an amazing feature on Good Morning America for her work!
