This special episode of Magic Hour Podcast takes us to the floor of Vancouver Startup Week for a collection of candid conversations with women in tech, entrepreneurship, and innovation.
Through short, pop up interviews, we explore what it means to build a business in real time: the moments of momentum, the barriers that still exist, the lessons learned from founders and speakers, and the future women in tech are actively creating.
Part recap, part reflection, part love letter to the builders in the room. This episode highlights the voices, perspectives, and ideas shaping Vancouver’s startup community.
Featured guests include:
- Laura Fortey, Flow State Founder
- Kristin Zerbin, Hoochie Booch Kombucha
- Priya Tronsgaurd, Edify Learning Spaces
- Mikayla Stewart, Atono, ColdStart, and Athena Collective
- Kim Jacob, Arvorei Communications Group

We had so much fun creating these pop-up interviews at Vancouver Startup Week. There’s something special about capturing founders in the moment, right in the middle of building, learning, and leading in real time. This post is a compilation of the conversations that stood out most, featuring a few of our favourite founder interviews and the insights we’re still thinking about.
