This Mother’s Day week, we’re spotlighting a woman who’s not just building a company—she’s building a better way to live with technology. Ellen Scanlon talks with her friend and business school classmate Hagan Kappler, the founder and CEO of Daisy, a smart home tech company that helps families simplify the chaos of connected living.

Hagan is also a mom of four and a seasoned leader with experience at companies like Goldman Sachs, McKinsey, and Starbucks. In this episode, she shares what it really takes to lead, including the moment she nearly walked away from a major opportunity, how a public #MeToo experience shaped her values, and what she’s learned about trusting her instincts. This is a personal conversation about career, courage, and the quiet power of doing things your own way.

Content Note: This episode includes a brief mention of sexual assault in the context of a #MeToo experience. Please take care while listening.
