The Power of No: Celebrity Stylist & TV ...

Rebecca Minkoff
About this episode

Though she is widely known for dressing celebrities on the red carpet, Ali Levine is more of an entrepreneur in stylist’s clothing. This mother of two has worked in nearly every niche of the fashion industry, including corporate design at Coach and Fendi, working as an executive at Target, costume design for film, and, of course, celebrity styling.

With the arrival of her two children, Ali’s brand now encompasses not only fashion, but the wildly popular realm of “mommy influencer.” She’s also cultivating partnerships in the health and wellness space, has her own podcast, and has been developing mindfulness and spirituality in the most unlikely ways (hint: it has to do with reality television!). Ali shares the vital importance of following your intuition, and the ways in which the word “no” can take on a positive meaning when we use it to create boundaries, making more room for the things we truly want in our lives.

Thanks for listening!  Don't forget to order Rebecca's new book, Fearless: The New Rules for Unlocking Creativity, Courage, and Success.
