#30 Rejection as Fuel: The Mindset That Took Her From Ballet to Best-Seller to CEO | Carlota Rodben

Finally, I am sharing my story! • I’ll share how moving 17 times by age 27 shaped my identity as a global citizen and polyglot. • Pivoting from international relations to diving headfirst into the beauty and luxury industry despite facing a ton of rejection. • Writing Beauty as it Is at age 22, interviewing top beauty leaders, and opening unexpected doors. • My time at Chanel, where I created and led an innovation team that merged technology, experience and luxury in new ways. • During the pandemic, I authored Beyond Luxury: The Promise of Emotion, exploring how luxury could evolve in a rapidly changing world. • In 2023, I took a leap of faith, leaving Chanel to pursue entrepreneurship, driven by my vision to transform the luxury industry.Want to stay ahead of the curve?
