    Poppi Founder: From Broke to Shark Tank & Building a Viral Brand From Her Kitchen

    Allison Ellsworth is the co-founder of Poppi, a better for you soda brand that is revolutionizing the next generation.  Allison always knew she wanted to be an entrepreneur, but her journey began in the oil and gas industry, where she spent years on the road building a successful career. During this time, she struggled with bloating and other gut health issues, inspiring her to take charge of her wellness. She adopted a clean diet, started working out, and discovered apple cider vinegar's benefits. However, she wasn’t a fan of its taste and sought a way to make it more enjoyable. Allison created an apple cider vinegar-based soda, "Mother Beverage" in her kitchen and quit her day job—nearly going broke while selling it at farmers' markets. After an appearance on Shark Tank while nine months pregnant and a complete product rebrand, the prebiotic soda became "Poppi," the viral, #1 selling soda on Amazon with over 2 billion TikTok views and the most-watched Super Bowl ad this year. In this week’s episode, Allison shares her journey of leaving a stable career to start her own business—without any prior experience. She reveals how she landed Whole Foods distribution with no connections and took a chance on Shark Tank to secure funding. Allison breaks down why they decided to rebrand Poppi, how they executed a successful relaunch during the pandemic, the social media strategies that helped them grow awareness and build a loyal community, and so much more. In this episode, we’ll talk to Sasha about: * Saying "yes" and figuring things out can lead to success. [03:02] * Allison’s career journey and how it shaped her. [04:22] * Passion is key to entrepreneurial success. [07:02] * How Allison’s health journey inspired her to create Poppi. [08:51] * Self-funding, entering Whole Foods, and joining Shark Tank.

    ILIA Beauty Founder on Making Bold Moves, Listening to Your Intuition & Stepping Into Your Power - Sasha Plavsic

    In this week’s episode, we’re re-airing one of our top episodes with Sasha Plavsic, the founder of ILIA Beauty, a natural skin-centric makeup and skincare brand that paved the way for the “clean-beauty” space as we know it today.  Throughout her life, Sasha noticed that some of her beauty products irritated her skin. Her mother, who was also dealing with her own health challenges, encouraged Sasha to look into the ingredients behind her favorite makeup, leading her to notice a real gap in the industry for efficacious makeup that supports healthy skin. This motivated Sasha to build from the ground up out of her parent’s garage and bootstrapping the venture herself. ILIA has now expanded to many different product lines & has award-winning skincare products, mascara, lipsticks, and more. The company has seen incredible growth and in 2022, was sold to the private investment fund of the Courtin-Clarins family. In our episode, Sasha shares how she went from dreaming of becoming an architect to diving into graphic design, even dropping out of college, crossing borders, and finally discovering her true path. She candidly shares her 'aha' moment in her 30s – the catalyst that pushed her to leave behind her old life, get out of a long-term relationship, travel, and create the space for freedom that she always wanted. Sasha shares how she got ILIA off the ground with no background in makeup and the importance of sharing ideas to bring them to life. She also talks about how she started the business with very little money, the exact steps she took to take ILIA to the next level and the importance of listening to her gut and not growing too fast. In this episode, we’ll talk to Sasha about: * Sasha's dream of becoming an architect and college decisions. [09:36] * Parents' reaction to Sasha's education and exploration. [17:11] * Ending a relationship, leaving town, and traveling the world. [23:38] * Honoring life's biggest value, freedom.[26:26] * Supporting her mother's health, and starting ILIA. [31:04] * Sasha's side hustles and entrepreneurial ideas. [33:12] * Working at Saje, self-funding, and dad's support/advice.[40:388] * How Sasha launched the first product with very little money. [43:45] * Managing and overcoming big transitions in her life: Getting married, getting pregnant, and losing her dad to cancer. [47:37] * Turning down Sephora and potential business partnership. [54:447] * Being present with her kids, valuing her own time, and setting boundaries in life.

    From Highschool Dropout to Beauty Legend, Doubling Down on a Growth Mindset, Overcoming Self-Sabotage & Taking the Road Less Traveled with Jeanine Lobell, Founder of Stila Cosmetics & Neen

    In this week’s episode, we’re re-airing one of our top episodes with Jeanine Lobell, founder of Stila Cosmetics & Neen. After dropping out of high school and trying to forge her own path in the world, serial entrepreneur and world-renowned celebrity makeup artist Jeanine Lobell fell in love with cosmetics. Thanks to her try-anything attitude and strong work ethic, she quickly moved up the ranks to work on famous faces like Nicole Kidman and Natalie Portman for the covers of Vogue and Vanity Fair. When Jeanine founded Stila in 1994, with its professional-grade colors and ultra-wearable formulas in recyclable packaging, it took the makeup world by storm and earned a cult following almost overnight. She saw unprecedented growth in the first five years and had numerous investors scrambling to buy the company, which she ultimately sold to Estee Lauder in 1999. Now, she is disrupting the beauty industry all over again with her direct-to-consumer brand, Neen, the first-ever subscription-based card that offers new ways to play with makeup and experience tutorials. In this episode, Jeanine speaks to us about how she discovered her purpose as a high-school dropout and someone who was regularly fired from jobs early in her career. We discuss how Jeanine finally realized her worth, what her superpowers were as a first-time founder when she launched Stila, and the advice she has for women who are looking to make a similar leap in their careers. We also take a look at the importance of having an abundance mindset, owning who you authentically are, finding your own voice, and so much more!  In this episode, we’ll talk to Jeanine about: * Breaking free from the “prisons” of others’ opinions. [03:24] * Why Jeanine went to mime school in Paris. [07:47] * Lessons in entrepreneurship from a hot dog stand. [11:39] * Why none of the stops on your journey are a mistake. [13:20] * Rising through the beauty industry ranks. [15:31] * Self-compassion as a first-time founder. [17:14] * The origin story of Stila. [22:12] * Thoughts on competition, comparison, and abundance. [27:01] * Being a first-time mom and a first-time founder. [30:02] * Why we're all works in progress. [39:37] * Selling her first company to Estee Lauder. [41:02] * Overcoming hardship as a serial entrepreneur. [44:19] * Neen’s subscription cards. [48:06] * Success expectations versus reality. [50:06] * Common mistakes first-time founders make. [52:41] * Balancing accountability with self-kindness.
