Featuring Tyra Banks, Entrepreneur and Supermodel, Smize & Dream
Moderated by Kc Ifeanyi, Executive Director of Editorial Programming, Fast Company
Too ambitious. Too strange. Too much. Tyra Banks has heard it all, and she’s turned it into a business advantage. From breaking barriers in modeling to reinventing herself as an entrepreneur and brand builder, Banks has built a career by betting big on ideas others weren’t ready for—and making them impossible to ignore. In this candid conversation, Banks unpacks the business of being “too much,” why the ideas that seem outlandish today can become your greatest advantages tomorrow, and how to tell the difference between being too early and being right on time.
