Rebecca Minkoff: The Fashion Powerhouse’s Commitment to Female Founders

She Pivots

You’ve probably seen Rebecca Minkoff’s bags on the streets of New York City, in paparazzi photos, or inside the pages of magazines. But after returning from maternity leave, she confesses that she felt like a "stranger" in her own company--a turning point that refocused her attention on building a space to support other female founders. On this episode of She Pivots, Rebecca talks with Emily about the hard work that was required to get her business off the ground; what it’s like working with her brother; the tough (but impactful) words an employee told her after she returned from maternity leave; and, the important work she is doing through her Female Founder Collective.
