Kelly Cutrone, CEO & Founder of People's Revolution
Dare To Be Fearless with Alexa Curtis
I went up to Kelly Cutrone at a Starbucks when I was 14-years-old and in NYC. At the time, she was fully focused on her PR firm, People's Revolution, putting together some of the most prominent and famous fashion shows at Lincoln Center at the time. I ended up getting an internship with Kelly, and catching up with her felt so full circle for me since she's truly an icon in the industry. Now, she's focused on helping creators like Anna Delvey (yes, that Anna) reinvent the narrative behind being a creator. If you want to work in PR or media, this episode is for you.
