Description

"In this new episode, Steven sits down with serial entrepreneur Sophia Amoruso.

Sophia Amoruso is an American businesswoman and New York Times best-selling author of '#GIRLBOSS' which later became a Netflix series of the same name.

Sophia founded the female fashion retailer, 'Nasty Gal' in 2006 when she was 22 years old. Six years later, Nasty Gal was named the "Fastest Growing Retailer" in America. However, in 2016, the same year that Sophia was named by Forbes as one of the richest self-made women in the world, Nasty Gal filed for bankruptcy.

Since Nasty Gal's bankruptcy, Sophia has founded 'Girlboss Media', an online community providing mentoring and support for women worldwide. As well as 'Business Class', a comprehensive tutorial course that helps founders accelerate and scale their businesses.

In this conversation Sophia and Steven discuss topics, such as:

How Sophia’s rebellious nature helped her to create an original business
How she regards being an outsider as a superpower
Why as a CEO you only know 10% of what is happening in your company
Why Sophia would never want to be a CEO again

A few years ago I was a broke, university dropout, living in one of the worst parts of the country, alone, with nothing but a laptop & a dream. Fast forward a few years, I’m the 27 year old CEO of one of the UK’s fastest growing companies. That company is called Social Chain. My world is intense, sometimes crazy, always challenging and always unpredictable. This podcast is simple, every week I’m going to share my personal diary with you and I want to give you an insight into what it’s like behind the scenes, being an entrepreneur, the deep, dark thoughts that nobody else will share with you and anything else that’s playing on my mind. This is not scripted, this is off the top of my head and this is direct from my diary. This is the diary of a CEO, I’m Steven Bartlett. I hope nobody is listening, but if you are… keep this to yourself.
