Rachel's Notes from the Sidelines:

  1. Social media promotes what you don't have. Get clear on your value system so you're less impressionable on what's missing.
  2. A big part of success is not what you know, but resilience. Be the last person standing.
  3. Bottom line can't drive a business. It's people first.
  4. SPARKLE FACTOR is wanting to leave the world better. Be community-minded, and have a strong rooting of values.
  5. Fashion is about authentic self-expression.
  6. Women need to stop worrying about being judged by others.
  7. What you consume and who you spend time with is how you look at yourself and who you become.
  8. Do continual auditing. Ask if a thing or person aligns with you and supports you feeling good about yourself.
