This one-of-a-kind episode is a masterclass in how to believe in yourself, no matter what obstacles you face.
There are 5 lies that you are telling yourself that are holding you back from greater success, purpose, and true fulfillment.
Today, Mel is sitting down with one of the most successful self-made women, Jamie Kern Lima, who will share these lies and the truth you need to hear.
Jamie went from serving stacks of pancakes at Denny’s to creating a billion-dollar makeup company, IT Cosmetics. She is one of the most successful entrepreneurs of all time and was the first female CEO in L'Oreal's history.
Jamie’s life story shows you what is possible when you stop doubting your greatness, build unshakeable self-worth, and embrace who you are.
In this episode, she is giving you the exact playbook for the level up in your life you have been looking for. Once you listen, your self-doubt won’t stand a chance.
