Tracy Holland scaled a beauty brand to $750 million in wholesale revenue, and everyone called her an overnight success. It took ten years of building and failing before that. Sophia and I sat down with Tracy — co-founder of HATCHBEAUTY, founder of InnerFifth — to talk about what actually builds a brand. She shares the waitressing rule she still uses in boardrooms, why raising capital too early costs you control, how to trade equity for influence instead of burning cash on ads, and the three non-negotiables for women right now: know AI, build a personal brand, and delete the word "should."

📝 SHOW NOTES A closet cleanout and a country dance floor. That's all it took for Sophia to land two income streams she never went looking for. In this episode, Sophia walks Michelle through how clothes that were headed for the donation bin turned into about $60 on Depop — including the tank top that sold within hours after racking up nearly 1,000 views. Then the story takes a turn. One night of line dancing in Arizona put her across from a 24-year-old art broker, which led to a private gallery tour, an hour-long crash course in selling $30K–$100K art, and a commission offer.

Natasha Arvinte-Hickey grew up in post-Soviet Moldova, where a cold apartment and two unemployed parents taught her exactly what scarcity feels like. Today she coaches leaders and teams across Europe and Asia — and her message is not what you'd expect. In this conversation, Michelle and Sophia ask Natasha why great players so often make a terrible team, why friction is a signal instead of a problem, and what leaders keep getting wrong about layoffs and AI. Her answer to almost everything comes back to one thing: most of us don't actually know ourselves. Learning that, she says, is the anchor everything else hangs on.

Do you find yourself hitting every goal and still asking "what's next?" Our guest, Meghan French Dunbar, has a name for that loop — and it lives in the same part of your brain as addiction. In this episode, Michelle and Sophia sit down with the "business anthropologist" and bestselling author of This Isn't Working to unpack why your worth isn't tied to your work, how to actually define your values (hint: keep it to five), and why the "soft skills" we undervalue are really leadership skills.
