$600 Million in Revenue and Counting: Lessons in Scaling, Self-Belief, and Bold Leadership | with Scarlett Leung and Emily Duncan


Listen Later

In today’s episode of EMBody Radio, I sit down with Scarlett Leung — a powerhouse operator and entrepreneur who has scaled businesses from scratch to over $600 million in revenue. Scarlett brings a rare balance of creative vision and business logic, and in this conversation we break down the real skills and mindset shifts required to build at the highest levels.

We dig into what it actually takes to grow a company beyond the startup phase, the realities of leadership, and why blending creativity with discipline is the ultimate entrepreneurial advantage. Whether you’re just starting your journey or scaling past 7+ figures, this episode will light a fire under you.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

  • Scarlett’s journey from CPA to scaling businesses to $600M+ in revenue
  • The hardest transitions in growth: why the leap from $500M to $1B is the steepest
  • The essential business/logical skills every entrepreneur should cultivate (finance, ops, HR, ecom)
  • Why creative intuition is equally critical, and how Scarlett balances both sides
  • The danger of staying loyal to team members who can’t scale with the business
  • How to hire and assess talent at each stage of growth
  • The role of grit, adaptability, and willingness to learn in long-term success
  • Cross-functional leadership: why marketing, supply chain, and finance must all communicate
  • Scarlett’s reflections on community, connection, and creating opportunities for collaboration

Why You Should Listen

  • Think like a $600M operator — learn what separates hobbyist entrepreneurs from leaders who scale into the hundreds of millions.
  • Spot your own ceiling — understand when you might be the bottleneck, and how to bring in the right people to take your business higher.
  • Balance logic with creativity — discover why finance, ops, and HR matter just as much as vision, innovation, and connection.
