Acting As If: How to Claim What’s Coming ft. Lisa Price of Carol’s Daughter

#351: I'm sitting down with Lisa Price — founder of Carol's Daughter — to talk about growing, pivoting, and changing direction publicly. Lisa has been building Carol's Daughter for 33 years.

She's navigated equity partners, a major acquisition, public scrutiny, and ultimately buying her company back on her own terms. And through all of it, she's operated from a practice she's had long before it had a name — acting as if.

We talk about what it actually looks like to claim something before you can prove it. The gratitude practice that rewired how she moves through hard seasons.

What she learned about her own role when she became a "small fish in a big pond." And why the easiest, most peaceful deal of her career only felt that way because of everything hard that came before it. This isn't a story about random luck.

It's a story about preparation, posture, and trusting yourself enough to decorate the tree and make the cookies while you're waiting on the yes. This episode is for you if...
