In 2008, Vicky Tsai walked away from a startup job and set out to rediscover herself on a trip to Japan. In Kyoto, she had an unforgettable meeting with a geisha, and learned about the face creams and blotting papers that the traditional Japanese hostesses had used for centuries. But as she contemplated selling those products in the U.S., experts on both sides of the Pacific told her it would never work. Strapped for money and juggling multiple jobs, Vicky worked out of her parents' garage, pitching her new brand—Tatcha—on QVC and steadily growing it. In 2019, Unilever acquired Tatcha for a reported $500 million.This episode was produced by Jed Anderson with music composed by Ramtin Arablouei.

The WNBA kicked off its new season last week with beauty brands lining up to gain access to the league's growing cohort of fans.  In a gold rush that started around 2020, some of the industry's top brands have entered into multi-year sponsorships with the league or its top players. The most recent, Fenty's sponsorship of the New York Liberty, was announced earlier this month and kicked off on Saturday's home game opener with several activations including a "Gloss Bomb glam cam" where fans show off their beauty look.  The NY Liberty, a top team in the league, has also received sponsorships from L'Oréal-owned brands Essie nail polish and NYX color cosmetics. Meanwhile, Amorepacific-owned Laneige became the Phoenix Mercury's official sponsor last year, mass hair-care brand Odele Beauty sponsors the Minnesota Lynx, and Glossier has been a league sponsor since 2020.  What's more, Youth To The People has partnered with the Seattle Storm, and L'Oréal-owned Urban Decay was the official L.A. Sparks sponsor for two seasons. Plus, the Chicago Sky has partnerships with Covergirl, Olay and hair-care band Jamaican Mango and Lime. But perhaps one of the biggest deals is Sephora's sponsorship of the league's newest team, San Francisco's Golden State Valkyries, who will now play at the newly-renamed "Sephora Performance Center" in Oakland. And this is just a snapshot of the WNBA deals Glossy is tracking.  “There was limited broadcast for women's sports [a few years ago], and now we have record-breaking viewership, which has been just absolutely amazing,” said Jacki Gemelos, a former WNBA player and coach turned sports agent. “Major brands rarely built campaigns around female athletes. And now athletes like Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, Alex Morgan and Simone Biles, just to name a few, are leading campaigns and not just being included.”  As previously reported by Glossy, attention from the beauty industry aligns with a sharp rise in WNBA audience attention. Viewership on ESPN was up 155% last season and, within this, viewership among people aged 18–34 rose by 164% and viewership among women increased by 165% year-over-year.  Glossy welcomed Gemelos to the podcast to discuss this change and provide context and advice for beauty execs looking to join in on the action. She provides context as to different types of deals, including the average costs and what makes a deal authentic. Gemelos is a lifelong basketball player who spent more than a decade playing professionally overseas and in the WNBA for the Chicago Sky and the Connecticut Sun. She was an assistant coach for the NY Liberty before joining Nike as an athlete community coordinator. Today, she's an agent at prestigious boutique firm Disrupt the Game, where she oversees deals for a roster of top talent.  In today's episode, Gemelos discusses everything beauty execs need to know about this cultural shift. But first, hosts Lexy Lebsack and Sara Spruch-Feiner discuss the top headlines of the week. This includes QVC's foray into 24/7 social commerce selling through TikTok Shop, plus a bird's eye view on how the beauty industry did in the first quarter of the year, according to a new report from Circana market research company.

Welcome to The Lindsey Anderson Show! In this episode, we dive into resilience—the key skill every entrepreneur must develop to overcome the inevitable ups and downs of running a business. Today, I chat with Brenda Reynolds, an expert in leadership and change. She breaks down a five-step framework for building resilience as a leader, and we talk about how to tackle change and turn it into growth. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to bounce back, this episode is for you.Guest Introduction:In today's episode, I'm excited to welcome Brenda Reynolds, a leadership expert, TEDx speaker, bestselling author, and consultant. Brenda specializes in helping leaders navigate change and uncertainty by turning “now what?” moments into opportunities for growth. She's worked with top organizations like McDonald's, QVC, and Goldman Sachs, equipping leaders with the tools to lead confidently through times of change. Today, Brenda is going to share her simple yet powerful system for developing resilience as a leader and business owner.Building Unshakeable Resilience in Business with Brenda Reynolds - Key Takeaways:Resilience is Key to Overcoming Setbacks: Business ownership comes with both wins and losses, but resilience is what allows us to bounce back and keep moving forward. It's about handling uncertainty and challenges with grace and strength.Fail Forward Faster: Every failure is a test, not a setback. When you see challenges as opportunities for growth, you'll build the business of your dreams faster.The Importance of Managing Transitions: Change is inevitable. How you handle transitions, both personally and within your business, will define your success. The most resilient leaders engage their teams through authentic communication and empathy.The Five Frogs Framework: Brenda's simple five-step framework to building resilience as a leader. From the “Freaking Out” stage to “Sovereignty,” this framework helps you grow stronger and more confident through challenges.Navigating Emotional Moments: It's normal to feel overwhelmed when things fall apart. But the key is not to get stuck in those emotions—acknowledge them and move through them intentionally to come out stronger.Brenda's Five Frogs Framework:F - Freaking Out: This is the initial emotional response where everything feels like it's falling apart. The key here is to acknowledge your emotions but not get stuck in them.R - Reframing: Once you've processed the initial shock, it's time to reflect and reframe the situation. Ask yourself: What can I learn from this? How can I turn this challenge into an opportunity?O - Overcoming Obstacles: Obstacles, big or small, will come your way. The key is to face them head-on, take action, and keep moving forward.G - Growth: Every challenge is an opportunity to grow. As you face adversity, you'll build resilience and become a stronger, more confident leader.S - Sovereignty: This is the final stage where you own your resilience. After overcoming challenges, you emerge as a more capable, empowered version of yourself, ready to lead with confidence.The Challenges Entrepreneurs Face:As entrepreneurs, we often face the emotional rollercoaster of business ownership—some days are wins, others are losses. The biggest challenge is staying resilient through the setbacks and emotional highs and lows. Building resilience is the only way to keep pushing forward, no matter how tough things get. Resilience gives us the courage to pivot and keep growing.Key Quotes:“Resilience is the key to overcoming setbacks and...

The two talk about Lisa's early days of inventing out of necessity, the challenges and lessons of protecting intellectual property, and the evolution of Inventing A to Z—a company dedicated to guiding aspiring inventors from the spark of an idea all the way to the marketplace.  In this episode, we discuss: How Lisa got started as an inventor Her first major product The importance of protecting inventions What challenges women face in the inventing world Why Lisa is passionate about supporting women inventors Lisa's books and creative pursuits   Lisa Ascolese is the CEO and founder of the company Inventing A to Z, and author of her book "The Inventress's Guide To Inventing The Right Way - All Or Nothing Now Or Never!".

Lisa has an impressive client list, which includes many corporations such as Service Lamp, Sylvania Lighting, and Westinghouse. She spearheads putting together campaigns to get companies and individuals on national shopping networks such as QVC selling out products in literally seconds in addition to helping clients get their products licensed and in retail stores.
