We are wrapping up #ActionAugust! In Episode 25, my guest Rian Buckley CEO and Co-founder of Fitcode, a fashion data company that enhances the denim shopping experience by focusing on fit, not size brings it again. She encourages us all with great fervor to “Grind When No One Is Looking” Before she became a powerhouse CEO, Rian was an elite athlete at the University of Washington and a fashion model traveling the globe. Both of those experiences taught her to be disciplined, competitive and a wise ruler of her time. She reminds us there is always going to be someone smarter, prettier, stronger and more talented than you. If you can work harder than everyone else, you’ll get the results. You have to be disciplined and do the work to win.
In Episode 24 of the Success Bully podcast, we get into it for #AugustAction. My phenomenal guest Rian Buckley CEO and co-founder of Fitcode, a fashion data company that enhances the denim shopping experience by focusing on fit, not size, does not mince her words when it comes to what she wants. While scaling her fashion tech startup and weighing investment options, Rian stated with such steady determination, “I wanted the power.” And by power she meant… the power to choose. We talk about what inspired her to create a solution for a clear problem in the e-commerce space and her goal to remain a cash positive company.
