Empowered women empower women. And today we've got an empowered woman who's gonna empower you on the show. You've heard her say, you've got a deal on ABC's hit show Shark Tank for 16 seasons. Barbara Corcoran is an Emmy award winning shark and executive producer on the show. She's the founder of the Corcoran Group and her journey to this moment we're all sharing together right now
is nothing short of remarkable. Barbara is one of 10 kids raised in a two bedroom home. She struggled with dyslexia, got straight D's in school and had 20 jobs by the time she turned 23. She then borrowed $1,000 and quit her job as a waitress to start a small real estate company in New York City.
She grew the Corcoran Group into the largest and best-known brand in the brokerage business, and Barbara became one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country. From a $1,000 loan to a billion-dollar business, and now she's invested in more than 100 businesses to date. She's also so sharp, quick-witted, and so, so funny. Plus, there's something she did to me.
behind the scenes on Shark Tank that I'm gonna share with you that made my jaw hit the floor and made my soul explode like a giant heart emoji. I am so excited for this conversation. Barbara Corcoran, welcome to the Jamie Kern Lee Michelle. I've been looking forward to it so much. Thank you so much. I'm so excited, and I just love you. And thank you for being here.

Chapter 3: What unique perspective does Barbara have on rejection?
Chapter 4: What is Barbara Corcoran's secret to building confidence?
Are you allowed to say bullshit on your show? Sure. Okay. I don't want to say it to you in any way. I haven't got her mouth a little bit, you know.
And that skill set sure paid off.
Let me tell you, without dyslexia, I would not be nearly as successful as I am. Dyslexic kids have gifts, true gifts that other kids don't have. They're very intuitive because they've gone through the pain of being looked down upon. It hurts. sharpens your intuition very much so. Your empathy, it definitely does. You can size people up faster than the other kid in the town.
However, you can't size up a book. But what's more important? Sizing up people, getting along with people. Very often, people who are severely dyslexic are great talkers. I'm a great talker. I can't read, but I sure can talk. And most importantly, when you put down as a kid, you want to get even. If you have any gumption, you want to get even.
And my whole life has been one long attempt to prove to everybody that I'm not stupid. Isn't that stupid that I would still be worried about that? But I'm always worried about not having the answer or being called on and stuttering and all the painful things being made to read out loud. That's happened to me at board meetings. Could you read this report? No, I pass it on to the next person.
I'm not getting caught in that again. I think because you're coming out of a hole, you have more fervor. And interesting enough, on all the businesses I've invested in, Shark Tank, by far my most successful are all owned by dyslexic people. Now, maybe because I picked them on purpose, but know this. They're not book smart, but they're street smart. And I think that just is not an accident.
But as long as you have a great parent... who makes you believe in yourself. I mean, I had that in my mother. If she didn't tell me I was a genius all the time, she didn't tell me all the time I had a wonderful imagination. If she didn't put me in situations to demonstrate my wonderful imagination, who cared about that except she cared? That's where I got my confidence from.
And where do I get my work ethic? from really is knowing I had a liability and I had to work harder than everybody else. But I got used to working hard. I'm a great worker. No problem. What was terrible as a kid became my assets as I became older. And then to be a parent to two kids. Oh yeah. With dyslexia. Oh, they're great. Yeah. I kept my eye on one ball raising Tommy and Kate.
Self-confidence, that's all I want to do. If I keep that confidence there, it's a home run. Don't worry about anything. It's a home run. And I also learned from my mother with all children, not just children that struggle in school, with all children, I think you have to let them fail.

Chapter 6: What lessons can we learn from Barbara's journey on Shark Tank?

We are in a culture that you don't want to let a kid fail, get a special tutor, blah, blah, blah, talk to the teacher, whatever. My mother was a believer in letting us fail because she wanted to nurture our gene of getting back up, and she certainly did. She always said getting back up is where it's at, not excelling.
I'm surprised I even tried to excel because she made getting back up sound so good, you know?
Yeah. Do you think, Barbara, like do you believe our setbacks or hardships are happening for us? In the sense of like when you look at what you've gone through in the case of dyslexia and then the skill set that you built and then now you are a parent and probably have such insight into doing that. Do you believe in that? Do you believe like our steps are divinely ordered? Of course.
Is there a role faith plays in your life?
