EMBody Radio $600 Million in Revenue and Counting: Lessons in Scaling, Self-Belief, and Bold Leadership | with Scarlett Leung and Emily Duncan
In today’s episode of EMBody Radio, I sit down with Scarlett Leung — a powerhouse operator and entrepreneur who has scaled businesses from scratch to over $600 million in revenue. Scarlett brings a rare balance of creative vision and business logic, and in this conversation we break down the real skills and mindset shifts required to build at the highest levels.
We dig into what it actually takes to grow a company beyond the startup phase, the realities of leadership, and why blending creativity with discipline is the ultimate entrepreneurial advantage. Whether you’re just starting your journey or scaling past 7+ figures, this episode will light a fire under you.

- The essential business/logical skills every entrepreneur should cultivate (finance, ops, HR, ecom)
- Why creative intuition is equally critical, and how Scarlett balances both sides
- The danger of staying loyal to team members who can’t scale with the business
