Sarah Blakely's Journey to Success

Sarah Blakely, the founder of Spanx, shares her inspiring journey of starting her business from humble beginnings. After working as a door-to-door salesman selling fax machines, she decided to create a product to address a common issue she faced. By cutting the feet out of pantyhose, she created the prototype for Spanx, a revolutionary undergarment that provided a smooth look under clothing. Despite facing rejections and challenges, she persisted, landed a deal with Neiman Marcus, and later gained massive success with Oprah famously endorsing her product.
