Without Jamie Kern Lima in my life, I’m not sure that I’d be starting my company right now. She’s a cheerleader for all women and has so much belief in people. Her personal story is a billion-dollar success story when the cosmetics company she founded was sold to L’Oréal and became the first female CEO of one of their brands in history. Her new book “Believe It” is a must-read if you have big dreams, and she’s going to ignite your soul on fire and remind you that anything is possible.
Question Highlights:

- Can you share a story of rejection?
- How can we connect back to why we started something in the first place and stop comparing ourselves to others?
- What do you tap into to keep going?
