“On April 13th I proposed to my girlfriend Emily at the restaurant where we had our first date. I told her I was running late, had the restaurant opened just for her, and set up hidden cameras all around her. When she sat down at the table, there was a TV in front of her set to take her on a journey that would lead to the proposal of a lifetime. This is what happened…” – Justin

Find out how this former website designer started an $85 Million/year Fashion Empire. Stacey Bendet founded the Alice + Olivia (Alice and Olivia) clothing company in 2002.
It all started with a pair of pants… While walking by a fabric store in NYC, Stacy saw a wild & funky striped upholstery fabric. She purchased a few yards of the material. At the advice of a friend, she sought out a pattern maker/seamstress and commissioned a pair of pants that were the same dimensions as her favorite pair of jeans. The result was a hip and unique pair of pants that garnered attention every time she wore them. “Everywhere I went people would stop me and say “Where’d you get those pants?”,” she says. She started making them for her friends and sold to her first store after the boutique owner saw her and approached her in public and inquired about them.
That was only the beginning of Alice and Olivia, now in addition to the pants, there are Alice + Olivia dresses, shoes, accessories, and even an Alice Olivia children’s line.
In addition to the 800+ specialty stores selling the clothing, there are 8 Alice + Olivia Boutique stores with multiple locations in New York, California, and Connecticut.

To come up with the money she needed to start her own fashion company, Betsey acted in a commercial for Bayer Aspirin. She earned $10,000 being in the commercial which she used to start her fashion house ‘Betsey Johnson’.

Learn how James Dyson made BILLIONS reinventing the vacuum in this rare interview. Dyson vacuum cleaners sell in over 40 countries and his company has annual sales of $1 BILLION each year.
Before achieving success, James built 5,127 prototypes of his ground breaking bagless dyson vacuum cleaner before getting it right. “Failing 5,126 times, you learn to enjoy your failures, because failure teaches you something. In order to overcome failure, you’ve got to understand the failure, and then be creative in order to overcome it and make something work,” says Dyson.
A major factor that sets this entrepreneur apart from others is he looks at experience as a very bad thing. James says: “I like very naive people who are willing to try something new, a lot of times experience can be a very bad thing.”
The latest product in the Dyson lineup is the energy efficient hand dryers called the ‘Dyson Air Bade’. The Dyson Airblade hand dryer dries your hands in 12 seconds rather than the 30 to 40 seconds of the standard electric hand dryer. Not only is it faster, but it’s also very energy efficient (green) and uses less than a quarter (25%) of the energy of a traditional hand dryer.
Facts about Sir James Dyson:
1978 – James Dyson began working on his see-through cyclone vacuum cleaner
2007 – Awarded a knighthood (Sir before his name) by the Queen of England
What is happiness, and how can we all get some? Buddhist monk, photographer and author Matthieu Ricard has devoted his life to these questions, and his answer is influenced by his faith as well as by his scientific turn of mind: We can train our minds in habits of happiness. Interwoven with his talk are stunning photographs of the Himalayas and of his spiritual community.
Adam Savage walks through two spectacular examples of profound scientific discoveries that came from simple, creative methods anyone could have followed — Eratosthenes’ calculation of the Earth’s circumference around 200 BC and Hippolyte Fizeau’s measurement of the speed of light in 1849.
“Life comes at us very quickly, and what we need to do is take that amorphous flow of experience and somehow extract meaning from it.” In this funny, enlightening talk, educational psychologist Peter Doolittle details the importance — and limitations — of your “working memory,” that part of the brain that allows us to make sense of what’s happening right now.
