Mistakes That Made Me A Millionaire with Kim Perell


Listen Later

What if your biggest failures were actually stepping stones to extraordinary success? My dear friend Kim Perell, serial entrepreneur and investor in over 100 companies, knows this firsthand. After selling her last company for $235 million, Kim could have presented a glossy highlight reel of triumphs. Instead, she chose vulnerability, sharing the mistakes that paradoxically fueled her success journey.

In this raw and refreshingly honest conversation, Kim reveals the messy middle of entrepreneurship that social media never shows. From her first kitchen-table startup to becoming a multi-millionaire by 30, her path was riddled with setbacks. "I've made mistakes that cost me $5 and mistakes that cost me $5 million," she admits with disarming candor. Kim details how her sunscreen product turned customers' skin yellow, her tea brand required multiple complete rebrands after cease-and-desist letters, and countless pivots that would have broken a less resilient spirit.

The wisdom Kim shares transcends business – it's about resilience in the face of life's inevitable setbacks. With her "be the buffalo" philosophy (charging directly into storms rather than running from them), she offers a framework for transforming obstacles into opportunities. She provides practical frameworks for knowing when to pivot versus when to quit, when you're staying somewhere too long, and how to trust your intuition when making crucial decisions. The earning-or-learning litmus test offers immediate clarity for anyone questioning their current path.

Whether you're building a business, contemplating a career change, or simply navigating life's challenges, Kim's hard-won insights will shift your relationship with failure. As she poignantly reminds us, "Failing does not make you a failure." Ready to discover how your biggest setbacks might become your greatest catalysts for growth? Listen now and transform how you view mistakes forever. And be sure to pre-order her incredible new book Mistakes that Made Me a Millionaire: How to Transform Setbacks into Extraordinary Success.
