Don't Be Intimidated By What You Don't

Every Time I Went On Stage I Was So Terrified I Almost Threw Up.

I Would Say Where I Feel Like I'm Struggling The Most In Learning And Giving Myself Permission To Fail Is In Finding The Balance In Life. There Are Different Aspects To Women: There's The Mother, There's The Working Woman, There's The Wife, The Friend, The Sister, The Daughter And So Just Figuring That All Out. I Continue To Want To Try New Things And Give Myself Permission To Not Be Great At It.

Within The First Year Of Launching My Company, Spanx, I Decided To Go Over To England And Cold-call Harrods, Harvey Nichols, And Selfridges The Same Way I Had Cold-called Neiman Marcus, Saks, Nordstrom, And Bloomingdale's Here In The United States.

The Word 'spanx' Was Funny. It Made People Laugh. No One Ever Forgot It.

I Feel That Women Have Been Neglected, Unnecessarily Neglected And Mistreated Personally By The Fashion Industry And Shapewear In That Entire Category Was A Definite Place That We Were Neglected.
