Life After Launch

with Megan Luttrell & Geo George

Origin. Career. Launch. And three lessons that stick.

Not exit stories — the real thing. Every episode of Life After Launch follows the same four-part arc: the origin, the career, the launch, and three lessons that stick. Founder-to-founder, no corporate speak, no vague advice. Presented by the Aussie Founders Club.

She also built Aussie Founders Club, a community of more than 4,000 founders, operators and startup people across Australia.

Co-Founder, Mayfly Ventures

Geo George is co-founder of Mayfly Ventures, a Melbourne venture studio (formerly Mayfly Accelerator) that builds vertical-SaaS and AI companies with industry operators rather than backing typical seed-stage founders. He previously worked in a venture fund with an attached studio, ran a COVID-19 operations program, worked as a management consultant, and built his own startup, Pricely, before co-founding Mayfly with Joe Young. Following Mayfly's 2025 merger with Brisbane's Oka Studio, the combined team added Oka founder Marco Santiago as chief technology officer and partner. Geo co-hosts Day One's Life After Launch with Megan Luttrell.
