For years, Rodeo Drive has been known as the most luxurious shopping destinations in the world.

We're talking $2 ,000 handbags and shopping sprees that cost thousands of dollars.

But here in Beverly Hills, that type of spending happens every single day, which raises a bigger question.

Is everyone here just insanely rich?

Or are there actual normal women making this type of money?

So today, I'm here in Beverly Hills to talk to these luxury shoppers

that are shopping in Rodeo Drive at these iconic stores to figure out how they were able to afford this lifestyle.

Let's go.

Excuse me, ladies, excuse me.

Quick question for you too.

Are either of you business owners by chance?

What do you guys do for work?

We work in luxury eyewear.

Oh, you do?

Tell me about that.

How'd you get into that?

10 years ago, after spending a decade in fashion, I joined a company that specializes in making independent luxury eyewear.

Okay, interesting.

Category to work in.

There's one piece of advice you could give young generation what

would it be read books what's your favorite book i don't know

if i have one dictionary have a nice day thanks excuse

me ma 'am quick question for you are you a business

owner by chance three two one thank you yeah of course of course let me know

if you like it excuse me ma 'am quick question for

you are you a business owner by chance what do you do for a living Have a nice day.

Her name is Poppy.

Do you want to get down and say hi?

Are you so excited?

Oh my gosh.

Poppy, are you a millionaire by chance?

She's so cute.

She loves meeting people.

How old is she?

She's, you know, he's totally fluffy.

Thank you.

Excuse me, ma 'am.

Quick question for you.

How old were you when you became a millionaire?

Oh man, 41.

What do you do for a living?

I am a surgeon and I have my own practice.

What's your best advice for someone right now who's going through the school and kind of struggling to get through it.

There's hard work that needs to be done now to feel the way you want to feel now later.

So, you know, it's okay to delay that gratification.

What did you sacrifice?

Going out with my friends, party.

You got to hustle, right?

You got to put in your time before you get to walk down the street and on Rodeo.

I have to know really quickly, what's the biggest challenge you're facing so far right now, building a business like this?

I think it's a lot, just, you know, as a woman, imposter syndrome, kind of believing in yourself, being in a man's world and putting yourself out there.

Did anyone not take you seriously?

Yeah, all the time yeah

and what happened i think you earn a place at the table by showing people you belong right

so you show them what you can do

and the more times you show up the more likely someone

is to say yes that's beautiful i have to know how

are you implementing ai right now in your business i think it makes us more efficient

and i think it makes us better physicians i'm looking forward to seeing where it goes

so you're pro ai right now yeah i think

so yeah interesting do you think a lot of business owners

if they're not implementing ai are going to be left behind yeah i think

so i mean when you look at what the big colleges and universities are training the next generation to do, it's to become people managers that use AI.

So all these new majors at MIT and Stanford, they're not focusing on creating AI anymore.

The technology exists.

Now it's going to be the people who know how to implement it

and manage teams and make it work to their benefit are the people that are going to be recruitable.

Did you hear that?

She made her first million at 41 years old.

That tells us it doesn't matter what age you are, you could still hit that million dollar mark.

The The best part is she's also a mother and she's able to balance it all.

Let's go find someone else.

Excuse me, ma 'am.

Quick question for you.

How old were you when you became a millionaire?

I think 26.

What do you do for a living?

I'm in the acidic space.

What do you do exactly?

My husband is a plastic surgeon and I run the clinic.

No way.

So this is the husband and wife whole business.

That's amazing.

What's the best piece of advice you can give to someone who wants to start a business with their husband?

With their husband specifically, I mean, choose your battles, work together, and just work hard.

What's the biggest challenge you've faced so far building this with your husband?

I would say just working through other people and being strategic and just being savvy with the investments.

Why do you say that?

You can make a lot more money in the investments than in the business itself

so you have to be very smart with where you put the money.

Interesting, so if there's someone right now who wants to start investing their money in 2026, what exactly, where exactly should they start investing their money?

Depends on how much they have they can start small they

can do like investment accounts with a broker they can also

do real estate i would love to know what's the most

amount money you've made in a single year a couple million a couple million

and you said you did this at 26 yeah so

if there's a woman right now who maybe wants to start her own business

but maybe she's too afraid what would you tell her join forces with people around yourself with smart people

that are doing things and see how you could work together with them don't be

100

so scared to go into business with other people

101

or go into business with your spouse just be open -minded to

102

that and follow the people that are doing it because it's happening all around us.

103

What's the dynamic between you and your husband when you guys go to work and then especially when you come home?

104

I mean he's with patients all day long I'm managing the front end of everything

105

so oddly we sometimes won't see each other in the whole day.

106

Because you manage

107

111

it's kind of scary it's hard for them don't make it personal I fired people who I adore

and love and at a personal level I would be their best friend I just think

113

115

so set them free i love stopping women

158

are you a business owner by chance i am why how

159

do you do i own the beverly hills estate how'd you get into

160

that it's a real estate firm in beverly hills we represent all the high -end luxury homes in Beverly Hills

161

and surrounding areas.

162

What's the most money you've made in a single year?

163

Oh I can't say that.

164

You can give me a range if you want.

165

Six to seven figures?

166

Yeah.

167

So tell me how are you able to hit that million -dollar mark with this?

168

Well I've been in the business 20 years

169

and I think it's just one of those things where you find what you love and you just perfect it.

170

You just keep working hard and showing up every day.

171

What type of risk did you take?

172

Lots of risk.

173

No risk no reward.

174

Were you ever afraid to fail?

175

No, I think there's no such thing as failure, only lessons.

176

You know, being a woman in any business is still not completely fair.

177

It's like we have to work harder and smarter than men.

178

Didn't a lot of people not take you seriously?

179

Yes, especially I got in the business when I was very young.

180

So when you're younger and you're a woman, both of those make it a little bit more difficult to be taken seriously.

181

But you just keep working hard, being professional, being an expert at what you do and learning all the facets of your business.

182

What do you think is the biggest thing holding women back right now in entrepreneurship?

183

Looking for a shortcut or an easy way out.

184

You took the hard way?

185

Yeah, from the bottom to the top.

186

Do you have any mentors?

187

Always had mentors and I still have mentors and I really believe in mentorship.

188

I think finding people that have done it the way

189

that you would like to do it and just seeing

190

if you can get them to talk to you

191

or like how you stopped me here just trying to get in front of people.

192

And did you ever deal with imposter syndrome?

193

Yes, I think when I was younger probably

194

and I think it's just one of those things where the more you deepen yourself

195

and get to know yourself the better you'll be at your craft or career.

196

You also have to do some some internal you know healing and work on yourself.

197

Are you a mother?

198

I'm a mother of two, yes.

199

How do you balance everything all at once?

200

I don't balance very well but you know I juggle.

201

I do the best I can.

202

So you believe that woman can have it all though?

203

You can have it all.

204

You can't do it all but you can have it all

205

and you can delegate and you can have great people around you and that's what I do.

206

How do you find the right people for the right places for you in your business?

207

For me it took a lot of years to get the right employees

208

and staff around and when you have reciprocity with your employees

209

and they're learning from you and you're giving them and then they're giving you and you're feeding the relationship, it doesn't feel so one -sided.

210

I think that really helps.

211

Exactly.

212

It's about building them too.

213

Building them as well.

214

I have to run.

215

One more question.

216

If there's a woman out there that you want to leave a message to all the young women right now, what would it be?

217

Follow your dreams, follow your heart, and remember that

218

if men can do it you can do it too guys

219

i cannot believe we stopped someone who owns beverly hills real estates

220

that is crazy you know she's making multi -million dollars off of this what i really found most inspiring is

221

that she kept saying how she was not taken seriously

222

but she still keeps going

223

224

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
