Allison Walsh sits down with media strategist, PR expert, and beauty industry leader Cris Gordon to talk about courage, entrepreneurship, and the power of believing in your mission before anyone else does. With more than 15 years in the media industry, Cris has led million-dollar marketing campaigns for globally recognized brands including Google, Sephora, Bobbi Brown, Capsule Pharmacy, and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. She shares the story behind launching her own agency, growing it for eight years, and eventually transitioning into her role as Chief Brand Officer and Head of Beauty at MMC. From working 17-hour days early in her career to taking the leap into entrepreneurship, Cris opens up about the realities of building something meaningful. She shares practical wisdom about personal branding, storytelling, risk-taking, and why waiting for perfect certainty will keep you stuck. The conversation also explores her passion for empowering women, mentoring founders, and creating spaces where the next generation can grow in confidence, creativity, and leadership. If you've ever wondered whether you're ready to take a bold step toward your dream, this conversation will remind you that sometimes the most powerful move is simply believing you can.
