What happens when you build a $100 million brand, become the face of a cultural movement, and then watch it all come crashing down—publicly? In this episode, I sit down with the iconic Sophia Amoruso—founder of Nasty Gal, originator of #Girlboss, and now a seasoned investor and entrepreneur—to talk about what it really takes to reinvent yourself without losing who you are. We get raw about failure, public scrutiny, and why walking away from something “successful” might actually be the most powerful move you can make. Whether you’re pivoting careers, or simply redefining what success looks like, Sophia’s insights'll give you the crash course in reinvention you didn’t know you needed.
