Story + Rant With The Female Founder Collective's Rebecca Minkoff | Episode 158

Hanging with The Female Founder Collective’s Rebecca Minkoff On Out-Of-The-Box Thinking, Career Paths, Risks, Perseverance, Sticking To Your Vision As A Founder, Story + Rain’s Origin Story

We’re ranting live from Industry City in Brooklyn and from The Female Founder’s Collective’s annual Female Founder’s Day. Tamara sits down with Sarah Beth from the team to answer some questions she has about career and building a brand. We grab FFC Co-Founder Rebecca Minkoff between sessions at the gathering of 500+ plus founders for this episode on out-of-the-box thinking and career paths, risk-taking, having perseverance, and sticking to your vision as a founder.

Tell us a little about your early career and how you’ve navigated career moves over the years, to get to where you are now? What was the catalyst for creating Story + Rain? Can you tell us how the name ‘Story + Rain’ came about? With decidedly differing answers, Tamara and Rebecca answer one of our favorite questions: What is a story about your career that you’ve never had the opportunity to share before? Is there a moment in your career when you found yourself having to stick to your vision and it paid off in spades, in terms of authenticity and your brand? What kind of creativity goes into putting together an event like Female Founder’s Day?

"For me, I was always thinking outside of the box. I was never staying in my lane."
- Tamara Rappa, Founder and Editor-In-Chief of Story + Rain


"I think it’s important to be an open book, but I also think that there are certain things that don’t need to be shared."
- Rebecca Minkoff, Founder of Rebecca Minkoff and Co-Founder of The Female Founder Collective
