Tina Sharkey, a trailblazer who notably coined the term "social media," has left an indelible mark over three decades of entrepreneurship, guiding companies to public success and significant exits. In a recent episode of Founder’s Story, Sharkey shared insights into her journey, emphasizing that her drive was never for the title of an entrepreneur but to effect meaningful change. With a vision that transcended the norm, she founded Brandless to democratize access to quality products at fair prices, reflecting her ethos of doing something impactful when nobody else is.
Sharkey’s approach to entrepreneurship is rooted in problem-solving and intentionality rather than seeking acclaim. Her work within large corporations and startups alike showcases her ability to be a change agent, irrespective of the environment. This mindset has been pivotal in her remarkable career, from building a global online community for women to advising the next generation of leaders and entrepreneurs.

To Catch a Thief: North Korea On Our Payroll
By shows
American companies are being infiltrated—not by hackers breaking in, but by workers. Thousands of North Korean operatives are applying to jobs across the U.S.—and getting them. They are embedding themselves at Fortune 500 companies. Government agencies. Critical infrastructure. Even the firms tasked with stopping this threat. To Catch a Thief: North Korea On Our Payroll is a first-of-its-kind audio documentary exposing this global labor pipeline—one that is quietly funneling hundreds of millions of dollars a year back to the regime, and its nuclear weapons program. Host Nicole Perlroth, bestselling author and former lead cybersecurity and digital espionage reporter for The New York Times, takes listeners inside this hidden network—from a rare, inside look at a North Korean IT worker on the job, to interviews with defectors who escaped it, to knocking on the doors of Americans hosting “laptop farms” on North Korea's behalf. Along the way, the series reveals how this playbook is creating a hiring freeze for American workers, in a challenging job market. And how it has metastasized—adopted by cybercriminal groups and fraud networks around the world—blurring the line between nation-state espionage and organized crime. To Catch a Thief is co-produced by Nicole Perlroth and Rubrik in partnership with Pod People. To Catch a Thief was written and produced by Nicole Perlroth, along with Khrista Rypl, T. J. Raphael, Rebecca Chaisson and Sam Gebauer. Additional thanks to Allie Pinel, Fendall Fulton, Krissy Clark, Cai Lee, Eunice Park and Aimee Machado. Editing and Sound Design by Erica Huang. Art direction and design by Ben Long, Gareth Strange and Sarah Burley at the John & Jane Agency, and support from John Leestma.
