Tran Le and Jason Chao on turning down the Y Combinator and Neo accelerator offers

In this episode of Founder's Campfire, Tran Le joins forces once more with her former co-founder, Jason Chaos, for an insightful conversation and startup accelerators. Le and Chao (both Stanford CS '24) were co-founders who applied to the Y Combinator (YC) Winter 2024 batch. Despite receiving offers from both the YC and Neo accelerators, they decided to decline the offers due to differences in their personal goals and values. In this episode, Le and Chao deep dive into their journey from conceptualizing their startup idea to navigating the YC interview process, and to ultimately parting ways. They discuss the importance of understanding one’s financial and personal readiness, ensuring alignment in co-founder values, and evaluating the desire to commit to the startup space in the long term. While sharing common values, Le and Chao also explore their differing viewpoints in finding the right co-founder and startup idea. Through their story, they aim to offer aspiring founders insight into the nuanced decision-making process involved in joining a startup accelerator program. 00:00 — Our Startup Idea and How We Met 05:32 — Our Y Combinator Interview Process 10:41 — Weighing the Y Combinator Offer and Exploring Other Opportunities 15:14 — Reflection of Our Decision, Differing Perspectives, and Lessons Learned Connect with them: Tran Le: https://www.linkedin.com/in/trannble/ Jason Chao: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jchao01/ Founder’s Campfire is a podcast show created and hosted by Tran Le, a senior at Stanford studying computer science.

The Warm Soft Container: Mental Health and Healing at Stanford

When we are wounded, physically or mentally, sometimes we need to find our warm, soft container and just recuperate. This is the container in which growth and healing can happen, says Stanford Program Manager of Health Education Colin Campbell. At a world-class institution like Stanford, what is student mental health like? How do students feel about "Grind Culture," and how does it affect their wellbeing? This episode spotlights Stanford community members of all backgrounds who are involved in facilitating healing — staffers at the Bridge, RAs, CAPs counselors — and people who have personal experiences in healing. There are many misconceptions about healing and mental health, and the purpose of this episode is to provide some insight into the mental health crisis that students have been enduring for years.

Academic Freedom Conference: Has Stanford Been Trolled?

The fight over free speech on college campuses will once again descend on Stanford, when Peter Thiel and a slate of well-known academics from around the country take the stage at the GSB this weekend. What exactly does a “Conference on Academic Freedom” entail, and why have some high-profile professors vehemently criticized it? Senior staff writer Grace Carroll sat down with the latter, to discuss Thiel’s tricky history of free speech, the racist accusations plaguing the conference’s most incendiary speakers, and ask the question: has Stanford been trolled?

Office Hours Air: 4. Bruce Feldstein, "Death is not a failure of life"

After working as an emergency medicine physician for 19 years, including here at Stanford, Dr. Bruce Feldstein suffered an injury that made it impossible for him to continue. With the encouragement of other medical professionals, he began to consider, and then pursue, chaplaincy. Two decades later, Feldstein has served as a hospital chaplain longer than he worked as a physician. In this interview, conducted a few weeks before his seventieth birthday, Feldstein discusses spiritual care in the hospital setting and then reflects on his own mortality. He also describes his transition from physician to spiritual care provider and shares stories from the bedside of patients past and present. Feldstein’s sense of awe, which he describes throughout the show, is rooted in his daily experience accompanying people in intense moments of pain, beauty, and meaning. In his work as a chaplain Feldstein witnesses the full range of human life on a daily basis: from the first breaths of newborns to the final words of the dying. Office Hours Air is a new Daily podcast and radio program. The show, created and hosted by Noah Sveiven, features guests in conversation about their work and the experiences in their lives that drew them to that work. Sveiven hopes the program will be of interest to anyone interested in exploring new ideas and ways of thinking, especially undergraduates discerning their callings. Office Hours Air is produced weekly and available online on all major podcast platforms. A one-hour version of each show is also broadcast in the Bay Area on KZSU Stanford Radio 90.1 FM, Thursday mornings from 10am to 11am. Office Hours Air is produced by Noah Sveiven and Ellen Yang.
