On Negativity, Ambition, and Building a Serious Business (Tory Burch)

You know, I think that it's something that should be celebrated and it shouldn't be around gender.

Aspire with Emma Grede
On Negativity, Ambition, and Building a Serious Business (Tory Burch)

Ambition should be a personal thing and people should think about what ambition means to them.

On Negativity, Ambition, and Building a Serious Business (Tory Burch)

But it's not something to have a negative connotation around women.

Aspire with Emma Grede
On Negativity, Ambition, and Building a Serious Business (Tory Burch)

And that's something that has to be addressed.

Aspire with Emma Grede

penalize them for that.

And so I thought, how do you build a culture around flexibility?

On Negativity, Ambition, and Building a Serious Business (Tory Burch)

How have you been able to do that?

Aspire with Emma Grede
On Negativity, Ambition, and Building a Serious Business (Tory Burch)

I have done it.

Aspire with Emma Grede
On Negativity, Ambition, and Building a Serious Business (Tory Burch)

And what I say is that as long as it gets done, I'm not really clocking how it gets done.

Aspire with Emma Grede
On Negativity, Ambition, and Building a Serious Business (Tory Burch)

Yeah, and I used to do that, maybe not at five, but I would be a stickler for being at home.

Aspire with Emma Grede
