This episode is a MUST listen.  Mel calls it “the single best conversation” she has ever recorded.  If you’ve ever felt behind, stuck, or doubting yourself, you need to hit play.  This is the most motivational, eye-opening episode that you will ever hear, and it will give you the roadmap to become the person you’ve always wanted to be.  Today, Mel is joined by Emma Grede.  Emma is one of the most successful self-made businesswomen in the world, playing a huge role in 3 billion dollar brands, as the founding partner of SKIMS, cofounder & CEO of Good American, and co-founder of Safely.  But this is not a conversation about business. It’s about creating an extraordinary life, even if you’re starting from nothing.  Emma was raised in East London by a single mom. She’s dyslexic and did poorly in school. She dropped out of college in her first year because she couldn’t afford tuition.  But that was just the start of her story. She proves that anything is possible when you refuse to quit. Today, she has built 3 billion-dollar companies, became a Shark on Shark Tank, and is the host of Aspire with Emma Grede – in addition to being a mom of 4. In this conversation, Emma will give you the mindset, the strategy, and the motivation to bet on yourself when the world doubts you.  This is a masterclass in grit, vision, and relentless execution.  By the time it’s over, you’ll stop waiting, stop wishing, and start moving.  For more resources, click here [https://www.melrobbins.com/episode/episode-321/] for the podcast episode page.  If you liked the episode, check out this one next: The 7-Day Reset for More Time, Energy & Happiness (Backed by Science) [https://www.melrobbins.com/episode/episode-266/] Connect with Mel:    * Get Mel’s #1 bestselling book, The Let Them Theory [https://www.amazon.com/dp/1401971369?tag=lnk0001-20&geniuslink=true] * Watch the episodes on YouTube [https://bit.ly/45OWCNr] * Follow Mel on Instagram  [https://bit.ly/3QfG8bb] * The Mel Robbins Podcast Instagram [https://bit.ly/49bg4GP] * Mel's TikTok  [https://bit.ly/46Kpw2v] * Sign up for Mel’s personal letter  [https://bit.ly/46PVnPs] * Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes ad-free [https://siriusxm.supportingcast.fm/] * Disclaimer [https://www.melrobbins.com/disclaimer]
