The Mistakes That Made Her Millions: Kim Perell on the Power of Failing Forward | Live from the 2025 Powerhouse Women Event
Description
One of my favorite things about the Powerhouse Women event every year is bringing together brilliant, like-minded women together in one place. Today, you're getting a front row seat to a very special LIVE stage where my dear friend Lori Harder sat down with Kim Perell, serial entrepreneur, speaker, author, and startup mentor. She shares how she turned a $10k loan from her grandma into a $100M business, the "70% rule" to transform overthinking into instant action, and the importance of finding your tribe, your mentors, that'll guide you to the next level of success. Plus, the biggest red flags founders should avoid, building a healthy relationship with failure, protecting your energy through designated life audits, and even more tactical needle-moving tips!
