Emma Grede sits down with Rich Kleiman for the latest Boardroom Cover Story to discuss how Oprah Winfrey became her ultimate role model and helped shape her ambitions as an entrepreneur. From growing up in London around financial stress to learning early that money represented freedom, Grede explains how Oprah’s success, influence, and ability to build a lasting business inspired her own path. She reflects on what she learned from watching Oprah, how those lessons informed her approach to building brands like Good American and SKIMS, and why she continues to draw inspiration from one of the most influential figures in media.
