In this week's episode, host Kristin Hayes talks with Marissa Childs, a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard University Center for the Environment, about a recently published study that explores the prevalence and dangers of wildfire smoke in the United States. Childs discusses changes in the location and frequency of wildfire smoke, the degree to which increased prevalence of air pollution can be attributed to wildfire smoke, and the disproportionate effect of wildfire smoke on certain groups of people. References and recommendations: “Daily Local-Level Estimates of Ambient Wildfire Smoke PM2.5 for the Contiguous US” by Marissa L.

Gould, Minghao Qiu, Jennifer Burney, and Marshall Burke; https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.est.2c02934 “All We Can Save: Truth, Courage, and Solutions for the Climate Crisis” edited by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson and Katharine K.

To me, it's no surprise that Anne Driscoll is where she is: the CEO of Launch Pad - a company on a mission to catalyze the growth of entrepreneurship ecosystems in cities across the United States - and a veteran of Silicon Valley who has embraced a life of accomplishment, risk-taking, and engagement with opportunity in whatever form it presents itself. Anne and I have known each other since we were kids, and it was a real treat to catch up with her - we talk about how she successfully navigates running a business with her spouse, overcoming the challenges COVID presented to a business model premised on in-person community-building, the upside of divorce, and how she managed to get her career to the point where she can say she's the happiest she's ever been.

Anne Driscoll and Chris Schultz are co-founders of an organization called Launch Pad. Anne serves as CEO and Chris is the Chief Community Officer and they are a married couple. Launch Pad was started in New Orleans following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. Anne was a long-time Silicon Valley Executive. She was an early Google employee and post-Google she has taken her expertise to the Valley’s high-growth startup scene, championing emerging ecosystems and creating platforms to support small businesses such as Ning, Dwolla and GoDaddy. Chris was born in Nigeria to American parents (working in the Peace Corps) and he was inspired by the hustle, grind, and entrepreneurship he saw daily at the Nigerian marketplaces of his youth. He’s an active angel investor and has spent 15+ years bringing together the “doers” of the world—startups that have raised over $160 million in venture capital and created 5,000+ jobs.In this episode, Stew talks with Anne and Chris about how and why they started Launch Pad, the communities it serves, what they’ve had to do to pivot their business during the pandemic, what it takes for a married couple to run a company together, how their philosophy of investing in long-term relationships in growing their business affects their relationship beyond work, and more. Here then is an invitation, a challenge, for you, once you’ve listened to the conversation, especially the part about how Anne and Chris like to “go long,” as they say. How might you take a longer-term view than you now have on a business relationship that matters to you and how by doing so would you benefit?

Scaling a business means combining a can-do mindset with the ability to picture how it's all going to work when you're not the only one spinning the gears. Fortunately for the startups working at Launch Pad co-working spaces, CEO Chris Schultz and President Anne Driscoll bring combined experience, scaling companies like Google, and building multiple entrepreneurial ventures. In this episode of Hack the Process, Anne and Chris (along with their baby Harper) tell us the advantages of integrating life and work instead of struggling to balance them, explain how technology and modern tax laws are enabling more location-independent lifestyles, and discuss the opportunities that can come from matching venture capitalists with small businesses all across the country.

  In Episode 55, I'm chatting with Anne Driscoll, owner of Branches Books & Gifts in Oakhurst, California. We talk all things books, including: Reading Levels Getting the parent and the child on the same when choosing books. Getting the right books in the hands of each child. The pros and cons of the reading level system. Asking for teacher input when choosing a book.
