In this "Lessons" episode, Stormy Simon, former President of Overstock.com, reflects on her journey from secretary to executive leadership and what it truly means to bet on yourself. She shares how necessity, responsibility, and self-trust pushed her to take uncomfortable risks, while redefining success beyond money, titles, or external validation. Stormy explains why curiosity and continuous growth matter more than status, and how recognizing patterns of stagnation became a signal to move forward. She also opens up about staying grounded through massive success, finding freedom on her own terms, and aligning life decisions with personal values rather than societal expectations.
