Jessica Alba Is Standing in Her Power

SPOTIFY STUDIOS
About this episode
Actor and entrepreneur Jessica Alba discusses the challenges and the misogyny she faced starting The Honest Company, how she slowly reclaimed her identity, and why ten years later she has stepped away from the company. She and Trevor also debate whether it’s better to be killed with a gun or with a knife (on a movie set, not in real life where both are bad).
