Her work in podcasting led to a three-year exclusive deal with Spotify valued at $60 million, and she has been recognized by Forbes on its 30 Under 30 Media list.

She launched The Unwell Network to partner with influencers and develop new podcast ventures. Cooper later signed a three-year contract with SiriusXM for $125 million, resulting in the creation of "Unwell Radio" and editorial control over its content. She has also been named to the Time 100 Next list by Time Magazine.
