“I just kind of do things my way,” says makeup guru, Bobbi Brown, whose appearance on today’s show proves that we are all the masters of our own destiny. Lindsay shared to Instagram that interviewing Bobbi for the podcast was next on her bucket list. Not long after, Bobbi responded saying, “DM me,” proving that when we put what we want out into the world, we can make it happen.

Bobbi shares how she built two majorly successful makeup brands, Bobbi Brown, and later Jones Road Beauty, by following her own lead and being herself. She talks about how it felt to walk away from her first business, separating her brand from her personal identity, and the importance of relationships.

Top takeaways from this conversation:

*A lot of entrepreneurship is just making stuff up
*Even the most successful people, like Bobbi Brown, suffer from imposter syndrome. You just have to put yourself out there
*Bobbi utilized her expertise and personal brand to teach and build authority–and so should you.

*What feel like mountains really aren’t–break things down into actionable steps and figure out what you need to do to move forward
