Women in Web3: Jamie Schmidt

Jaime Schmidt is the Co-Founder of BFF, a decentralized brand aimed at helping women get educated, connected, and financially rewarded in crypto. Together with Co-Founder Brit Morin, they've created an open-access community for the crypto curious that is based around their 'BFF Friendship Bracelet' NFT. Before Jaime journeyed into Web3, she created a company in her kitchen, Schmidt's Naturals, which grew into a household name lining the shelves at Target, Costco, Whole Foods, Walmart, CVS, and eventually being acquired by Unilever. Nowadays, Jaime is also the Co-Founder of Color Capital, an investment fund specializing in Web3 and consumer goods, as well as the Co-Creator of Crypto Packaged Goods, a community and NFT project bridging the consumer packaged goods industry with emerging opportunities in Web3. Jaime joins the Women in Web3 podcast to talk about: How BFF came to be, bringing together 100+ female and non-binary leaders like Mila Kunis, Gwyneth Paltrow, Tyra Banks, Paris Hilton, and Kate Hudson; Creating a community that emphasizes accessibility and onboarding for women who are crypto curious; The new BFF Clubs, progress on BFF-Con, and all the utilities that BFF offers; And how she juggles it all -- from BFF to Crypto Packaged Goods to Color Capital and more.
