The RealReal founder Julie Wainwright has written a memoir —and an entrepreneurial survival guide

This week on StrictlyVC Download, TechCrunch Editor-in-Chief Connie Loizos sits down with Julie Wainwright, the founder of The RealReal, who faced one of tech’s most public failures with Pets.com. They discuss Wainwright’s recent memoir, “Time to Get Real,” in which Wainwright describes how Silicon Valley turned its back on her.

In this conversation, Wainwright details how she intentionally built a supportive board when she launched The RealReal and how she’s carried that practice into her current company, Ahara.
