Over eight seasons as one of "The Real Housewives of New York City," Bethenny Frankel built an empire out of being herself. Whether as the founder and CEO of the lifestyle brand Skinnygirl or the host of the podcast, "Just B with Bethenny Frankel," she's always thrown herself wholeheartedly into everything she does.
In partnership with Global Empowerment Mission, she established the BStrong initiative, which has raised $125 million in aid and counting for relief in Ukraine. Now, she's sharing the secrets of her success and offering advice in her new book, "Business is Personal: The Truth About What It Takes To Be Successful While Staying True To Yourself." Frankel sat down with me on "Salon Talks," which you can watch here or read a Q&A of below, to talk about why authenticity is good for business, about the "47-layer dip of insanity" of the Amber Heard and Johnny Depp trial, and how failure can be a win.
