The Future of Household Help Is Already Here

In today’s episode, I sit down with Tamara Lucas, the founder and CEO of My PANDA, short for Personal Assistant Next Door App. As a single mom, Tamara turned her own need for support into a nationwide solution that connects people with trusted, local help for everyday tasks. From folding laundry to handling online scheduling, My Panda has grown into both a hyperlocal and virtual village built on community trust. Tamara shares how her team carefully vets service providers, how she’s scaling through business partnerships, and why building human connection remains at the heart of her mission.
