Welcome to episode 1, season 2 of Rookie Mistakes. After a 3.5-year hiatus, I'm back! My intention for this podcast was always to have conversations with other people, so I am finally doing it.
My first guest Jana Collins. Jana has lived an interesting life and has had an incredibly successful career in politics, public relations, and real estate. On top of all that, she's easily the most generous person I know.
Some topics our conversation covers:
- Business ventures gone wrong (selling silk pajamas from Hong Kong at Nordstrom)
- Working for the Republican Party in California during the Reagan years/meeting Ronald Reagan
- Her family real estate business
- Near-death experiences at 19 and on her honeymoon
- Advice on becoming successful
- The impact of her mother and grandfather on her life
- Dealing with failure
Enjoy!
