About this episode

Meghan sits down with close friend Jamie Kern Lima to share the incredible story of how she went from waiting tables at Denny’s to becoming the groundbreaking co-founder of IT Cosmetics. In 2016, Jamie sold the brand to L’Oréal for $1.2 Billion in cash, a deal that made her the first female CEO of a brand in the company’s history. The two discuss the power of authenticity, overcoming setbacks, and the critical importance of trusting your instincts.
