Although Lydia Fenet believes everything in life happens exactly as it should, she didn’t become one of the top charity auctioneers in the world by chance alone. For over two decades, Lydia worked tirelessly to become "the most powerful woman in the room." Lydia Fenet spent over twenty years working for Christie's, a world-renowned auction house, beginning as an intern, and eventually becoming one of the world's most well-known auctioneers. A series of events, including a car accident, led Lydia to leave the security and comfort of Christie's and take a risk on herself. Having realized her true value, Lydia "claimed her confidence" and founded Lydia Fenet Agency, a boutique auctioneering agency representing talented charity auctioneers. Today, Lydia is the best-selling author of two books: The Most Powerful Woman in the Room and Claim Your Confidence, a podcast host, speaker, and Founder and CEO of the Lydia Fenet Agency.

Italian-American award-winning chef and television personality Giada De Laurentiis blazed the path for female celebrity chefs. A pioneer in a still predominately male-dominated industry, Giada followed opportunities that ultimately led to her 21-year stint on The Food Network. As Giada recalls, most of her career was "edited." Wanting to rewrite the script to show a truer version of herself, she decided to get out while she was at the top. Giada launched her lifestyle platform Giadzy to pursue her heart’s true calling – entrepreneurship. With Giadzy, Giada showcases her love of Italy while weaving together the stories of each hand-selected product, creating an emotional connection with the consumer and building a community with her new membership program. Despite having faced her own struggles as a female chef and entrepreneur, Giada believes it is essential to enjoy the journey on the path to success. Thanks for listening!

The restaurant industry is notorious for being highly stressful, extremely competitive, and still primarily dominated by men. Owners of the critically acclaimed Raf's New York, sisters Jennifer and Nicole Vitagliano, along with their female chef partners, have created a safe space that raises women up and challenges the status quo. Just celebrating their one-year anniversary, Raf's has become an iconic neighborhood restaurant “where everyone wants to come and no one wants to leave." Following a romantic idea of opening an old-world style bakery near Jennifer's first restaurant, Musket Room, Jennifer and Nicole established a female “forever team” to align their values and vision. As they have created a space for each other to be themselves, they have been able to offer grace to each other during stressful circumstances. This has largely translated into the restaurant's vibe and the community they have built around it. Thanks for listening!

Liz Elting, CEO and Founder of the Elizabeth Elting Foundation, learned at an early age to rely on no one but herself financially. Liz took this advice to heart, founding and building a billion-dollar business from scratch and becoming one of the richest self-made women. From her NYU dorm room, Liz co-founded TransPerfect, the world's largest language solutions company, at the age of 26. Before getting her first clients, Liz made thousands of calls and wrote thousands of letters. Her road to success was filled with long hours and sacrifices. Although Liz had the highest vision for herself and her company, she experienced many learning curves along the way, including the heartbreaking experience of battling her co-founder in court. Liz is a fierce proponent of raising other female entrepreneurs up and amplifying their voices through her work with her foundation. In her best-selling book Dream Big and Win: Translating Passion into Purpose and Creating a Billion-Dollar Business, she vulnerably recounts her business journey and lessons learned.

While Jamie has come so far from her early entrepreneurial days of building and fundraising, she remains humble, remembering fondly that girl who "didn't know what she didn't know." Jamie grew up on the science side of skincare feeling very comfortable on the research and development side. Still, when she started her own company, intending to educate people on what is actually in their skincare products, she had no idea what she was doing. While she remembers feeling very alone early on, Jamie is now an empathetic supporter of other women founders and helps them rise. As Jamie passes the milestone of having sold her company in a major acquisition, she looks forward to the future growth of the company and remains committed to its success. Thanks for listening!

It's especially tough after doing all the things you think will bring success, but still waking up feeling unfulfilled every morning. Meha Agrawal, CEO and Founder of Silk + Sonder, found herself in that exact situation. As the first-born child of immigrant parents, Meha's path to success was paved at a young age. After being modeled a limited vision of what success could be, Meha became a computer software engineer. Realizing that perhaps that path wasn't right for her, she turned to entrepreneurship. A lack of community led Meha to establish Silk + Sonder, her beloved journaling subscription service. Though Meha had her fears about becoming an entrepreneur, she recalls her customers and her bigger why, knowing her product helps millions at a time. Thanks for listening!

Guided by optimism, Ellen firmly believes in showing up first and then figuring the rest out later. Deeply honest and known to drop the occasional F-Bomb, Ellen is a leading example that there is not just one path to success in life and business. After attending culinary school in Mexico City, Ellen returned home to LA. To get professional experience, Ellen busted her way into some of the best kitchens in LA until she eventually became a line cook at a two-star Michelin restaurant. Around the same time, the concept for an apron business began bubbling in her head. It is this concept that ultimately led to the formation of Hedley & Bennett, the leading provider of aprons and kitchenware for top chefs everywhere. Although Ellen has faced ups and downs along the way, her passion and purpose have inspired her to keep going down the path less traveled.

According to Vanessa Barboni Hallik, the visionary behind sustainable luxury fashion brand Another Tomorrow, it was all a "beautiful accident." After taking a sabbatical from her finance career in 2018, Vanessa found herself turning inward, which she now describes as a homecoming journey back to herself and her late mother. Finding no truly sustainable fashion pieces, Vanessa embarked on a journey to start a luxury brand rooted in transparency and care for animal, environmental, and human welfare. Through a farm-to-closet supply chain, Vanessa has developed a new model for sustainable fashion that enables the consumer to connect with the piece's origin story.

Inspired by her travels, Emily began to create high-quality children's sleepwear without flame-retardant chemicals.

How often do you stop to wonder who the person behind the reality TV star really is? You could look them up on the Internet, but what's the fun in that when you can hear it straight from the source? In this episode, Erin Lichy, of the Real Housewives of New York, is here to share her side of the story and what life is like for her as a serial entrepreneur, real estate agent, and mom.

Many of us today have been conditioned to believe that happiness will come after achieving a version of success based on money and titles that have been spoon-fed to us our entire lives. Anu Muralidharan, COO and Board Member of Expensify, reached a low point six years into chasing this version of fulfillment. Gripped by crippling depression, she knew she had to find a new definition of success. In an attempt to escape her circumstances, Anu immigrated to the United States to attend business school, accumulating $120,000 worth of debt in the process. Before she landed a job at Citibank, Anu cold-called hundreds, if not thousands of companies. As Anu describes it, she was always chasing after the next big thing, never stopping to ask herself if she was happy. Anu realized it was up to her to change her trajectory and began to follow her heart in an experiment that would lead her on the career path she is currently on. Throughout her career, Anu has faced self-doubt, a critical inner voice, and imposter syndrome, which has led her to offer keynote speeches on how high-achieving women can conquer all of these. Mentoring up-and-coming women entrepreneurs now brings her joy. Thanks for listening! Don't forget to order Rebecca's new book, Fearless: The New Rules for Unlocking Creativity, Courage, and Success.

As Mielle Organics celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, founder and CEO Monique Rodriguez promises an enormous celebration! And there sure is a lot to be excited about. In recent years, the Queen of Hair has broken barriers and given Black female founders everywhere a reason to celebrate. After losing her son during a high-risk pregnancy in 2014, Monique founded Mielle. Her turn to God and faith during this time led Monique back to her true purpose of working in the beauty and hair care space after working as a nurse for almost a decade. Through sharing her hair journey on social media Monique began to heal and was inspired to build a brand of natural hair products. She has experienced incredible success since the launch of her brand. Not only is Monique a self-made millionaire, but she has accomplished two historic milestones within two years: first, by becoming the first Black woman ever to raise the largest non-controlling investment of over $100 million with Berkshire Partners, and second, by being acquired by Proctor & Gamble, the largest exit a Black female beauty founder has ever made. The focus of Monique's brand has always been her online community and keeping her consumers' needs at the forefront. While Monique remains CEO of the company, she believes the real work has just begun. She now puts her focus on her real-life community, including her family and her non-profit Mielle Cares.

Enjoy this video podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠! A professional dancer's career is not easy. A complete commitment of your time, body, and most importantly your heart is required. It is for this reason that many women end their careers early or wait until later in life, after retiring, to have children. Dancer Eran Bugge is blazing a new path in the modern dance world by showing the industry that she has room in her heart for both dance and a child. Eran always assumed that she would retire and then become a mom, but then the pandemic hit and changed everything. Not ready to give up performing and not knowing when the pandemic would end, Eran and her husband decided to have a baby. After having a child and returning to dance, Eran became one of the first women since the 1980s to do so. Being a mother has allowed Eran to expand her heart even more while doing what she loves.
