1074 How to Overcome Self-Doubt & Reject...

Lewis Howes
About this episode

“What I thought was a setback was actually a setup for what I was supposed to do.”

Today's guest is Jamie Kern Lima, founder of IT Cosmetics, which she started in her living room and grew into the largest luxury makeup brand in the country. She sold the company to L’Oréal in a billion-dollar deal and became the first female CEO of a brand in its history. Her love for her customers and remarkable authenticity and belief eventually landed her on the Forbes America’s Richest Self-Made Women list. Today, she’s a mother of two and an investor, speaker, and thought leader who is passionate about inspiring the world.

In this episode Lewis and Jamie discuss how Jamie hustled to get the results she wanted, how to push through self-doubt and rejection, the moment she knew she needed to exit her dream and sell her company, and so much more!
