Youth. Admit it, we're all a little bit obsessed. Yet somewhat hilariously, no matter how young at heart we feel on the inside, it's still mind-bogglingly difficult to understand what the kids are into these days - and why (and what they're doing all the time on their phones). Luckily for me, Epic Sky CEO and co-founder Monika Rose is on the show this week to drop knowledge on teen fashion, entrepreneurship and youth and the shopping behaviors and psychology of girls well on their way to becoming the badass women of tomorrow. As the founder of a new ecommerce marketplace that not only sells stylish, teen appropriate fashion, but also encourages its audience to become designers in their own right, Monika brings a deep well of insight into next generation shopping habits to the show. Add to that her own enviable list of career accomplishments - from her early rise within Leapfrog to launching her own creative agency - and it's a conversation that delivers a road map for fulfilling work within the creative landscape while offering an insider's take on the consumer behavior of a population so many fashion business owners desperately want to better understand.
