Leslie Blodgett keeps it SO damn real with Bree on this episode! Called the “Queen of Beauty” and the most influential singular woman to impact the beauty industry by the New York Times, you’ve never met anyone like Leslie Blodgett. Not only does she do the splits on boardroom tables, as CEO and creator of bareMinerals, Leslie pioneered the original power of community (before the idea of social media existed)—reinventing how beauty was sold. Her warmth, empathy and authentic bond with her global community of fans, along with her unconventional approach, set a new standard that continues to shape the beauty business today. In 2006, Leslie took the company public in one of the largest cosmetic IPOs of the decade, and in 2010, the company was acquired for $1.8 billion.She pioneered a new age of direct selling and was the first to build a brand around a community with women all while building her empire on QVC. Leslie was running bareMinerals while being a mom time while her husband was a stay at home dad. She truly is unstoppable! In one of Leslies biggest Sephora's meetings, she wore a "Keep Your Promises" shirt which is the epitome of how she makes herself different. Leslie always wears something that sticks out on her outfit that's bold AF and has a message behind it! People might not know what these messages mean, but she does and that made her feel confident. How to change your mindset and play mind games is the meaning behind her NY Times best selling book called "Pretty Good Advice - For People Who Dream Big and Work Harder." The book is full of bold, blunt and honest advice from Leslie which will ignite a fire of inspiration inside you. Everyone needs a copy and everyone needs to see the BTS on our IG!
