Billion Dollar Moves™ with Sarah Chen-Spellings · 2026-05-21 · 1h 4m
In this episode of Billion Dollar Moves, I sit down with Suneera Madhani, founder of Stax and Worth, for a candid conversation about building, scaling, exiting, and knowing when it is time to begin again. Suneera shares how a rejected idea became a billion-dollar payments company, why focus and customer obsession mattered more than any single formula, and what she learned from raising capital as a young Pakistani-American woman building outside Silicon Valley. We also talk about liquidity, private equity, rolling too much equity into a deal, losing control after a majority recap, and the difficult truth that a company can stop feeling like yours long before you officially leave. For founders, funders, and family offices, this is a conversation about conviction, ownership, wealth, and the discipline to know when to hold on - and when to let go. Watch the full conversation and subscribe for more discussions at the intersection of capital, leadership, and long-term wealth.
