Hey, it's Rebecca. Before we begin, I want to let you know that we are overwhelmed by your love and support and kind comments on social media. And I want to ask you for a quick favor. Please leave us a review. It really does help us out and it helps others discover the podcast too. And here's this week's show. Your ability to fail and be okay with it is a really important

quality that you have to have in life because I think we over, we overestimate how bad it is

when we don't succeed. And I don't do everything right, but I definitely do everything I want to do.

Welcome to No Limits. I'm Rebecca Jarvis. Each week we're talking to

women playing at the top of their game. So how are they doing it? Whether you're looking for

answers or you just want to hear a good story, you're in the right place.

Joining me here today is a woman who's built a career doing exactly what she wants.

She got to know Amazon and Google and all the key players inside long before the world ever knew their names.

She's interviewed every major tech titan under the sun. And above all else, the reason I really admire her.

When she wants something that doesn't exist, she creates it.

She is the executive editor of Recode, host of the Recode Decode podcast, which you should check out.

It's a great one.

And co-executive producer of the Code Conference. Kara Swisher, welcome to No Limits.

Hi, how you doing?

I'm good.

You're in the middle of breaking news on your phone right now.

No, I'm just trying to figure out what's going on in Uber.

And so it's a really complex and fast-moving story.

So I spend a lot of time texting executives or my own reporters or lots of people there.

We're going to come back to that Uber conversation in a minute, but I want to talk to you

a little bit about your background because as a journalist, I look at your story.

First of all, huge amount of respect for you and your reporting.
