Why I Cried Myself to Sleep Running a Billion-Dollar Brand

Why I Cried Myself to Sleep Running a Billion-Dollar Brand

Kendra Scott reveals the shocking truth about 2020: while the world saw a billion-dollar brand thriving, she was sobbing herself to sleep every night, feeling like a complete fraud.

From dropping out of college to build a hat company that failed, to becoming a single mom starting over with $500 worth of jewelry supplies, Kendra's path to building one of America's most beloved jewelry brands was anything but glamorous.

She opens up about the moment she closed her first business in the pouring rain, saw a sign that said "Yes, We're Open," and realized failure was simply the bridge to her next breakthrough.

Whether you're struggling to start, scared to pivot, or exhausted from trying to be perfect for everyone else, this conversation will show you how vulnerability becomes your greatest competitive advantage and why your mess is actually your message.

In this episode you will:

  • Break through the dangerous myth of balance and perfection that keeps you playing small and burning out
  • Uncover the power of making genuine connections before transactions, and why cupcakes and champagne might be your secret weapon
  • Discover why treating failure as a gift instead of a death sentence unlocks exponential growth in business and life
  • Transform your relationship with vulnerability and learn how being authentic attracts the right people, opportunities, and success
  • Master the art of pivoting when life shakes your snow globe, turning recessions and setbacks into rocket fuel for your next level
