Today's episode will get your head spinning, open your heart, and inspire you to take the leap into something bigger.
It doesnât matter how young or how old you are.
You are meant to go big, to swing for the fence, and to do something no one has ever done before.
No more small plans. You have something big to do.
And thereâs no better person to inspire you to make big plans than my friend and IT Cosmetics Founder, Jamie Kern Lima (@jamiekernlimaofficial).
Jamie went from serving up stacks of pancakes at Dennyâs to creating a product that would help millions of women around the world feel confident in their own skin.
Today youâll hear the story of how she transformed the beauty industry, created the most successful product launch in QVC history, and ultimately sold IT Cosmetics to LâOreal for 1.2 Billion dollars (becoming the first female CEO at LâOreal in their history).
If you think Jamie had it easy on the way there, youâd be wrong. And you wonât have an easy time either, but so what?
Her story is a rollercoaster of rejection and disappointment, fear, self-doubt, and near bankruptcy.
But when youâve got big plans, you just keep going. Jamie never lost faith, and today she is teaching you how to never give up on your big plans either.
This is an encore episode with new and exciting insights from me at the top of the episode. You keep asking about how to tap into your purpose, and it starts with deciding the next right step.
