As co-founder and chief visionary of Dermalogica and The International Dermal Institute post-graduate training centers, Jane Wurwand is one of the most recognized and respected authorities in professional skin therapy. Under her leadership, Dermalogica has grown to be the leading professional skin care brand, used by more than 100,000 skin therapists in more than 100 countries around the world. 

In 2016, President Obama appointed Wurwand a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship, to develop the next generation of entrepreneurs both in the USA and abroad. She has served as a special advisor to the UN Foundation’s Global Entrepreneurs Council and is frequently sought out by the media. She was named one of “30 World-Changing Women” by Conscious Company media and praised as “The Woman Who Started a Cult” by The Sunday Times of London.

In November 2018, Wurwand launched FOUND/LA, a non-profit dedicated to supporting local entrepreneurs to help them build their business, purpose and community. FOUND/LA offers funding, mentorship, unique incubator programs and educational resources for entrepreneurs who have been underserved or overlooked by traditional systems.

In this episode, Jane discusses her journey, from the grief of losing her father when she was just 2 years old, to building a global skincare empire. She shares how divine timing orchestrated the birth of her book, ‘Skin In The Game: everything you need is already inside you’, and her bigger ‘WHY’ behind her unwavering and continued support of local underserved entrepreneurs. 

Other areas we dive into:

• The gift of the pandemic and COVID
• The new ‘next’
• Guilt of the survivor
• Finding your bigger ‘WHY’
• The power of visualization
• Digging deep into your own resources to find your purpose 
• FOUND/LA 
• Resilience, and the balance between physical, and mental health 
• The book - Skin in the Game: everything you need is already inside you

100% of all profits from sales of the book are being donated to FOUND/LA in supporting local entrepreneurs to build their business, purpose and community.
