In the season finale of perSPECtive season 3, Chloe sits down again with Miranda Mckeon; except this time they chat all things Fill Your Tank. Fill Your Tank is a deck of conversation cards made to foster connections between friends and strangers. Miranda founded this company after she and her high school friends would ask each other “road trip questions.” After falling in love with the conversations these questions prompted as well as connecting on a deeper level, she decided to create a whole company dedicated to inspiring this for others. Besides the company’s backstory and mission, Miranda also discusses the process of building a company with intention and how she plans to scale the business with future decks, products, and events.

In the 6th episode of the season, Mia McCarthy joins Chloe to talk about her career as a photographer and startup co-founder.

At just 15 years old she signed with IMG Models Worldwide as a photographer. Once a USC student she started freelance working on an array of projects from product shoots to more editorial-style work. She set her photography aside when she went on to co-found Handle — a venture-backed food delivery service (listen to our episode with the past CGO of Handle HERE to learn more).
