Founder Frequency

Founder Frequency is the official podcast of wednesday. Hosted by Caitie Santo, we explore the real stories and perspectives shaping the founder ecosystem. In each episode, we talk about what it’s actually like to be part of this space—the decisions, lessons, and identity shifts that come with it, and how we can shape a more inclusive future for women and non-binary founders.

Rooted in the Finnish startup ecosystem and open to global voices, Founder Frequency exists to make entrepreneurship feel more visible, relatable, and possible for anyone who’s ever thought, could I actually do this?”
