In this remarkable episode, we sit down with the extraordinary Jamie Kern Lima—self-made entrepreneur, champion of women, philanthropist, keynote speaker, and the co-founder of IT Cosmetics. Starting from her living room, Jamie built her company into a billion-dollar empire, eventually selling it to L'Oreal for an astonishing 1.2 billion dollars. Her success led her to become the first female CEO in L’Oreal’s history of over a century and secured her a spot on Forbes' list of richest self-made women. Beyond her impressive business achievements, Jamie is an active investor in more than 15 companies and today, she shares her wisdom and insights from her journey.

During our conversation, Jamie delves deep into the themes of her book, "Worthy," exploring the crucial distinction between self-worth and self-confidence—a differentiation many of us struggle to understand. Despite her long list of accomplishments, Jamie reveals how achievements alone did not fulfill her self-worth, shedding light on a common pitfall for many achievers. The insight that "In life, you don't soar to the level of your hopes and dreams, you stay stuck at the level of your self-worth," underscores the importance of internal work over external achievements for true fulfillment.
