Recent tragedies in New Jersey, including the murders of Maria Notis, Isabella Salas, Dr. Lauren Semanchik, and Tyler Webb, highlight the urgent need for stronger protections against stalking, harassment, and domestic violence. I am asking you to prioritize funding for domestic violence shelters, victim advocacy services, and mental health programs. I am asking you to ensure that reports of harassment and stalking are taken seriously and acted upon immediately.

IN THIS EPISODE: In this episode, our host Denise Silber sits down with Shannon Lundgren — HBS MBA, entrepreneur, and founder of Shannon's Circle — to explore what it means to build a business in one of the most personal industries: love. Shannon's path didn't follow the usual arc. After the Business School and a pivotal chapter working directly for Warren Buffett — where what impressed her most was his extraordinary kindness, and how he brought out the best in everyone by talking about their best qualities — Shannons Lundgren transitioned from corporate strategy to executive recruiting, a field where understanding the whole person, through emotional intelligence, is essential. That same approach now drives her work in high-end matchmaking, where success is all about the fit Shannon shares how she built her client base with intention, why she only takes on clients she believes she can help, and what entrepreneurs can learn from guiding people through high-stakes first impressions. So why listen?  To be inspired by an exceptional entrepreneur — and because, let's face it, you're curious about how modern matchmaking really works. Whether you're building a business or looking for meaningful connections, this episode will leave you thinking differently about what it  takes to create lasting matches between people. GUEST BIO: Shannon Lundgren, a Harvard Business School alumna, is the CEO of Shannon's Circle, where she brings 12 years of elite matchmaking experience to helping intellectually curious and kind singles find the love of their life.As a corporate executive turned matchmaker, she applies her executive recruiting skills to serve clients in California and the West Coast. Shannon is a recognized expert on modern love, featured in The Wall Street Journal, Fortune, Forbes, Harvard Magazine, Business Insider, and Today. Before launching her matchmaking career, she was a Senior Vice President at Wells Fargo and a Strategic Marketing Consultant at Berkshire Hathaway. She serves on the board of the Harvard Business School Club of Northern California and is a respected partner of The Family Office Exchange (FOX), where she speaks about wealth being much more than net worth. Shannon also holds a B.A. in business from UC Berkeley. She resides in San Francisco with her husband of 18 years and their teenage daughter.
