On today’s episode I am speaking with Julie Wainwright, founder of The Real Real. At 52, after the public collapse of Pets.com and a personal reset, Julie Wainwright launched The RealReal—an idea that would redefine luxury resale and grow into a billion-dollar business. In this episode, Julie shares how failure made her fearless, why she never let age define her ambitions, and the behind-the-scenes story of how The RealReal got off the ground. From clearing out celebrity closets in LA and building a brand rooted in trust and authenticity, Julie opens up about entrepreneurship, resilience, and what she wishes she’d done differently. Plus, she discusses the challenges of leadership, getting fired from her own company, and what’s next. Enjoy!
