A simple basement project transformed into a global fashion brand, Donna Salyers, the founder of Fabulous Furs, the pioneer of faux fur clothing, joins us! Her initial ambition to fit in with New York City's high-fashion crowd in the 1980s launched into a sewing kit business that grossed $300,000 in its first year out of her basement in Covington, Kentucky.
Discover how strategic decisions and humility have played pivotal roles in her business’ success. As Donna states, “I would go to New York and see Saks Fifth Avenue, I would walk around there and think: anything I see here I can make and it will actually be better than buying from Saks.”

For anyone who has watched, heard about, or read about the Golden Bachelor, one statement is true: you likely fell in love with Leslie Fhima. Leslie is a Minnesota born and raised, 65-year-old woman who has always been willing to try something new to explore where it may take her. As a young figure skater, it was her dream to be a part of the Ice Follies, a touring ice show with elaborate productions, which she auditioned for and joined for 2 years following high school. In the 80s, she opened up Leslie’s Shape Shop, an aerobics studio, after training with Jane Fonda, and continued her journey as a personal trainer and fitness instructor with LifeTime. Leslie Fhima and co-host, Lisa Rubin, have been extremely close friends since high school. As Lisa would say, “Leslie is always reinventing herself and ahead of her time”.
In this episode, we hear more about Leslie’s upbringing and her past that brought her to the person we were introduced to on national television. We learn about the friendships fostered from the Golden Bachelor, her feelings today towards Gerry, the behind the scenes of the clothing, hair and makeup on the show, and what is next for Leslie. She is authentically and truly herself (Lisa can attest to that).

What does Jacquie Berglund do? She turns beer into food.
Jacquie Berglund is the Founder and CEO of FINNEGANS Brew Co, the Rambunctious Social Entrepreneur and the driving force behind a beer brand that has generated over 2 million dollars in community impact since its inception in 2000. A graduate of The American Graduate School in Paris, Jacquie has degrees in Communications (BA) and International Relations and Diplomacy (MA): nothing to do with beer making. When she returned to the United States, she served as Marketing Director for Cara Irish Pubs in Minneapolis; this is where the spark for FINNEGANS was first lit.
In this episode, we learn the story of how Finnegans Brew Co came to be and how Jacquie and her team developed the first flagship beer. We learn how her passion for impact led to the development of a non-profit for 100% of the proceeds to go back to the community. We talk about what the “power suit” is for each individual woman: surprisingly it is not always a suit. Lastly, we learn about FINNOVATION Lab for founders.
