06: Putting out fires as founders and all things grit with Carrie Sporer

The Bold Founder

If we weren’t putting out fires in our businesses what would even be the fun in being a founder, right? Today I have the very talented Carrie Sporer from Swair who has created the Lulu Lemon of hair products on the market right now, but it hasn’t always been rosy and her team has seen their struggles. Today, we're going to talk about something that happened to her that honestly made my jaw drop.
Her first major fire was during her launch phase, where three weeks before launch they had to recall a majority of her products causing a full-blown panic, but that isn’t where she threw in the towel and quit. Carrie and her partner Meredith Krill bounced back and were even featured on Good Morning America, Allure, Vogue and more.
So this episode is for you if something has ever happened to you that's just absolutely devastating when you are on the precipice of something amazing, you are going to relate absolutely to Carrie’s story. So that's why we're going to be focusing today on grit and what to do when things don't go your way.
