On , Therese Tucker, Founder, Co-Chief Executive Officer & Executive Director at BLACKLINE INC, spoke about spirituality during Balancing the Divine: Harmonizing Masculine and Feminine Energies with Therese Tucker on Finding Fuscata.
Therese Tucker, founder and co-CEO of BlackLine, has been discussing her views on politics, society, and spirituality in a December 2024 podcast appearance. She described the political divide between Democrats and Republicans as resembling the "vitriol" of a divorce, and said she is "not a socialist" but a "capitalist" who is wary of universal basic income. Tucker also stated that she sees a "push toward sterilization" and "a darker depopulation agenda" in policies such as free abortions and hormone blockers, and said the removal of women's restrooms in favor of gender-neutral facilities "erases women." She characterized consent to digital terms of service as "implied consent" that has allowed collective loss of control. In earlier appearances, Tucker discussed her long tenure as CEO of BlackLine, which she bootstrapped for 12 years before taking public in 2016. She said the company's biggest competitor remains "spreadsheets" and that the pandemic served as a "long-term accelerator" for digital transformation. Tucker noted that she stepped down as CEO as part of a "multi-year succession plan" and expressed optimism about younger generations, describing Gen Z as "super fierce" about what they will accomplish. She also stated that she had experienced "environments that were rampant with sexual harassment" earlier in her career and praised the Me Too movement for enabling young women to "not feel the need to put up with it."
