Rebecca Minkoff joins me today to talk about how she built her fashion empire - from her start as a young designer who gets a lucky break to her steady climb to 'household name' status. We talk about her work with female entrepreneurs and she shares her provocative answer for the age-old question of how to find balance. Listen in and hear why I found Rebecca to be wise beyond her years.

17: Rebecca Minkoff: How To Become A Fashion Icon

I’m smart at getting to where I want to go, and I can teach you how to do it! I had 22 jobs before starting my real estate company with a $1000 loan and built it into a $5 billion business. Today I’m a ’Shark’ on ABC’s hit show "Shark Tank." It didn’t take a fancy degree to get here but took street smarts and a lot of courage. Life is too short to waste your time practicing someone else’s fancy theory on success. I give you the straight talk and the confidence to get there. Got a question? Call me at 888-BARBARA.
