S1E3: On not having failure as an option - WeBarre

About this episode

Super privileged to chat with two successful, smart, women Anabel Chew and Linda Tang, co-founders of WeBarre. Their studio brings together ballet technique, yoga, pilates and strength training in an invigorating workout to transform your entire body. It is the workout that celebrities swear by, including Madonna, the Victoria Secret’s Angels and even Ryan Gosling. Empowering interview for all entrepreneurs!

What you'll learn

  • How the same passion became their foundation in choosing each other
  • How being friends is not a requirement to start a business together (sometimes friendship comes afterwards)
  • Knowing each other’s strengths was crucial in making sure they are complementary to each other
  • Treating your team the way you want to be treated
  • How attitude is everything and focusing on the positives help in growing a business
  • Understanding each other is crucial in communicating effectively as well as having high tolerance for each other
If we were alone we would probably freak out, and almost withdraw not knowing what to do. This sense that failure/giving up is not an option; we don't want to let each other down and that helps us solve anything.
