What does power look like today? In this episode of Fortune Daily, Ellie Austin takes you inside Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit in Santa Barbara.
First, Ellie and MPW Editor Emma Hinchliffe break down the summit's biggest themes- who is in the room, what top leaders are discussing, and what lies ahead for female leadership.
Then, we hear from two women redefining wealth and influence on their own terms:
- Lucy Guo, once named the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire, on why walking away and retiring early proved harder than building a tech empire.
- Olivia Ferney, a luxury travel fixer for billionaires, on turning viral behind-the-scenes content into a thriving multi-million-dollar business and disrupting a notoriously secretive industry.
