Turning Passion into Product with Kimmy Scotti of Fig.1 and 8VC

Have you ever wanted to detach time from money? You may have wanted something more than an hourly job. But maybe you thought 'I'm too young' or 'I'm too old' or 'I'm too [fill-in-the-blank.]' For Kimmy Scotti, she didn't let her age stop her from accomplishing what she wanted. She pounded the pavement and figured out how she could get to where she wanted to go. 

This week's guest, Kimmy Scotti, is a life-long entrepreneur and business owner. After starting her first business at 15, Mimz New York, Kimmy went on to become a founding member of 8VC, a venture capitalist group. In the last few years, Kimmy has put her focus on co-founding Fig.1, a revolutionary skincare line. In this episode, Kimmy shares how she got started, her biggest passions, how she juggles her life and work, and so much more. 

"When we talk about the mission of Fig.1, it's to democratize access to healthy skin. And if you're going to democratize something, you better believe that Walmart is where it's gonna be." - Kimmy Scotti
