In this episode, I am joined by Jamie Kern Lima, the New York Times bestselling author of 'Believe IT' and the founder of IT Cosmetics. Jamie, a resilient entrepreneur, shares her personal journey of overcoming self-doubt and embracing worthiness. From her humble beginnings as a Denny's waitress to becoming the first female CEO of a brand in its 100+ year history, Jamie's story is a testament to the transformative power of self-belief. Join us as Jamie delves into her latest book, 'WORTHY: How to Believe You Are Enough and Transform Your Life,' offering insights that go beyond conventional wisdom. This episode explores the impact of worthiness on business, leadership, relationships, and personal fulfillment. Discover the steps to change what you believe you're worthy of, and in doing so, change your entire life.

Jamie Kern Lima is author of the upcoming book WORTHY: How to Believe You Are Enough and Transform Your Life, New York Times bestselling author of Believe IT, guest teacher of the Life You Want class live with Oprah Winfrey, and Founder of IT Cosmetics, a company she started in her living room and grew to the largest luxury makeup brand in the country. She sold the company to L’Oréal in a billion-dollar deal and became the first female CEO of a brand in its 100+ year history. Her love of her customers and remarkable authenticity and belief eventually landed her on the Forbes America's Richest Self-Made Women list. She’s been a Denny’s waitress, a struggling entrepreneur, lived a life-long journey of rejections, and has battled her way through years of self-doubt, body-doubt and God-doubt. She was given away at birth and adopted and has been on a journey of learning to believe she’s here with purpose, on purpose and for a purpose and is worthy, lovable and enough. She's a mother of two and an active investor, speaker, and thought leader who is passionate about inspiring and elevating women. She's also an active philanthropist who has funded leadership training in more than 100 prisons and shelters across the United States, and has donated over $40 million in product and funds to help women face the effects of cancer with confidence. She’s donating 100% of her author proceeds for both WORTHY and Believe IT.
