RAISING 3.1 millions dollars to change social media

Описание: What does it take to build the next generation of social connection, and who gets to lead that revolution? In this episode, we sit down with Sean and Nathaneo, Yale students and founders of Series, the AI-powered platform reimagining what a network can be. We explore how faith, grit, and intention helped them raise $3.6 million while staying grounded, and why building real community means bridging the gaps that traditional social media ignored. From late-night risk-taking to rewriting what "being a builder" means, this conversation is about creating access where there once was none.
