Business is more creative than we give it credit for. Sophia Amoruso understands this sentiment—and while many of us have witnessed the intimate details that have gone into building her past ventures, Sophia is looking forward as she launches her latest endeavor to help fellow entrepreneurs take flight. Enter Business Class, a newly launched course, which is “a one-way ticket for entrepreneurs that covers the fundamentals of starting and scaling your own business to achieve long-term success.”

Sophia's accidental foray into entrepreneurship has informed her current purpose-driven approach to creating content and resources that resonate in our digital age. This same approach is true for Business Class, as students have access to Sophia's extensive knowledge. While she has many lessons to teach—and stories to share—in this conversation, Sophia shared her thoughts on the role of creativity in conscious business, how her relationship with pace has changed, and what she's learned about slowing down—and starting again. This episode also opens with a story contributed by Tayler Carraway of Happy Medium.
