“There's this idea that you [can] sail your way to success or
have some overnight success or kind of come upon success
relatively easily. And that has just never, ever been.”

Amol Rajan speaks to entrepreneur and businesswoman Emma Grede
about the trade-offs we have to make to get to where we want to
be in life.

Emma Grede is co-founder of the clothing brand Skims, which she
created with her husband Jens and Kim Kardashian. From ordinary
beginnings in East London to the forefront of global consumer
brands and social influence in LA, Emma Grede argues that focus,
trade-offs and relentless effort matter more than comfort if you
are to succeed. She says that opportunity still exists, if you’re
willing to chase it.
