I had to live through being a woman who thought men always had a one-up... I knew I didn't like it. I thought that's how it was.

I've run into women who can be highly problematic, detrimental, and mean, just like I've seen that in men.

Often, the best jobs come out of just meeting people and letting one thing lead to another.

I'm obsessed with Topo Chico.

If people are telling you that they don't believe what you're doing, that means you're doing something out of their comfort zone. And generally, people don't want to be taken out of their comfort zone because it's outside of the status quo.

I remember, when we were starting Tinder, we were like, 'We're going to be the next Instagram!' I remember sending my parents emails being like, 'We got 300 members!'

Don't be afraid to let someone go if it's not working. You're not a bad boss. You're not a bad CEO.

Everyone deals with trauma differently, and recovery is always a work in progress. But courage is contagious, and the more that people stand up and speak out against misogyny, the faster we can create the kind of world where we won't have to.

I'm suffering from the worst anxiety. I wake up reeling from panic at 4 A.M.

I'd read a lot about the psychology around rejection and insecurity, and I had noticed that when people feel insecure or rejected, they behave aggressively, erratically. Especially when you can hide behind a screen name or a profile picture.

There were dozens of dating apps when Bumble came on the scene, but they weren't able to attract critical mass in a young professional group.

If you truly want to find a meaningful relationship, you've got to find yourself first and learn to be confident in your own skin. Don't sacrifice anything about who you are to be with someone. That's setting yourself up for failure.
