Summary

If you’re looking for a master class in believing in yourself, flipping the script on rejection and letting your WHY be your guide, you’ve come to the perfect place! Noone has navigated these choppy waters better than Paula’s good friend, entrepreneur, speaker, author and co-founder of IT Cosmetics, Jamie Kern Lima. As one of the very few self-made female billionaires in America and the first female CEO in L’Oreal’s 100+ year history, this trailblazer risked everything – leaving the safe and secure career she thought she’d spend her life in to bet on herself and solve her own problem: creating makeup to cover her rosacea. And here's the kicker: this major pivot to her calling was anything but easy. Hear Jamie's jaw dropping story that led her through a chorus of countless nos from investors and retailers, the verge of bankruptcy and the 10 brave and fateful minutes that would put IT Cosmetics on the map and shift the beauty industry forever.
