#37 Christine Day on Taking the Leap from Corporate America to Live Your Own Startup Dreams

Christine Day is a globally recognized business leader who has led at two companies you might have heard of: Starbucks and Lululemon.In our conversation, we talk about how Christine met Howard Shultz, former CEO and chairman of Starbucks, and how she went from office manager at a small coffee shop to running Starbucks’s Asia Pacific Group. Christine also shares how she led Lululemon through tumultuous times as its CEO for six years. We discuss how it’s like to transition from living, creating, and scaling other people’s dreams to having your own — as she eventually took the leap from being a big deal CEO in corporate America to the co-creator and co-founder of her own startup, The House of LR&C.--Love the podcast?
