My Revenue Was $4 Million My First

I Pledge To Invest In Women Because I Believe It Offers One Of The Greatest Returns On Investment. I Am Committed To The Belief That We Would All Be In A Much Better Place If Half The Human Race (women) Were Empowered To Prosper, Invent, Be Educated, Start Their Own Businesses, Run For Office Essentially Be Given The Chance To Soar.

I Think Failure Is Nothing More Than Life's Way Of Nudging You That You Are Off Course. My Attitude To Failure Is Not Attached To Outcome, But In Not Trying. It Is Liberating. Most People Attach Failure To Something Not Working Out Or How People Perceive You. This Way, It Is About Answering To Yourself.

Everything About My Journey To Get Spanx Off The Ground Entailed Me Having To Be A Salesperson - From Going To The Hosiery Mills To Get A Prototype Made To Calling Saks Fifth Avenue And Neiman Marcus. I Had To Position Myself To Get Five Minutes In The Door With Buyers.

Failure Is Not The Outcome - Failure Is Not Trying. Don't Be Afraid To Fail.

I Made A Conscious Decision Not To Tell Anyone In My Life. Now I Tell People - Don't Tell Anyone Your Idea Until You Have Invested Enough Of Yourself In It That You Are Not Going To Turn Back. When A Person Has An Idea At That Conception Moment It Is The Most Vulnerable - One Negative Comment Could Knock You Off Course.
