  • Martha Stewart shares her insights on success, creativity, and entrepreneurship. She emphasizes the importance of perseverance and adaptability in achieving one's goals, recounting her own experiences in building a media empire. Stewart describes how she was able to elevate and redefine homekeeping as an art form, appealing to both homemakers and career women while emphasizing the importance of balance.
    Martha Stewart was born Martha Kostyra, on August 3, 1941, in New Jersey. The second of six children, Stewart grew up in Nutley, New Jersey. She worked as a model from the age of 13, appearing in fashion shows as well as television and print advertisements. Stewart attended Barnard College in Manhattan, where she earned a degree in European and architectural history in 1962. While at Barnard, she met Andy Stewart, a Yale law student, and the two married in 1961 and had a daughter, Alexis. Stewart went to work as a stockbroker for the boutique firm of Monness, Williams, and Sidel. She worked on Wall Street until 1972, when the family moved to Westport, Connecticut. Stewart decided to focus her energy on gourmet cooking, starting a catering business in the late 1970s, and soon became known for her gourmet menus and unique, creative presentation. Within a decade, Martha Stewart, Inc., had grown into a $1 million business serving a number of corporate and celebrity clients. Stewart expanded into the world of publishing with her first book, Entertaining, which became a bestseller and was followed in quick succession by such publications as Martha Stewart's Quick Cook Menus, Martha Stewart's Hors d'Oeuvres, Martha Stewart's Christmas and Martha Stewart's Wedding Planner. Her marriage to Andy ended in divorce in 1990. In 1991, Martha Stewart, Inc., became Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc., with the release of her magazine, Martha Stewart Living. Stewart's lifestyle empire soon grew to include two magazines, a checkout-size recipe publication, a popular cable television show, a syndicated newspaper column, a series of how-to books, a radio show, an Internet site and $763 million in annual retail sales. On October 19, 1999 Stewart returned to Wall Street to see her company through its initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange. Stewart herself controls 96 percent of the voting shares in her company and is worth $1.2 billion. In 2002, Stewart made financial headlines for rumors of insider trading. In 2004 a jury found her guilty of conspiracy, obstruction of justice and two counts of making false statements. Stewart was sentenced to five months in prison and fined $30,000. Stewart was released from prison on March 4, 2005. Her self-titled syndicated daytime program ran from 2005 to 2012. Stewart continues to be a television presence.
    From the 2013 PBS Documentary “Makers: Women Who Make America”, examines how women have helped shape America over the past 150 years, striving for a full and fair share of political power and economic opportunity.

    Filmed in 2011... Just LOVE Martha, truly an inspiring ICON!! She was born a mogul! If your partner can't be supportive, get a new one. Men who don't respect a woman's intellect are resentful. Alexis, who presents as deeply resentful in an immature, bratty way with detachment, has no idea what Martha gave up to be her stay at home Mom, so much so she went off to boarding school to avoid her mother. I hope you've grown up in your attitude now, and be at your Mom's elbow to learn from her, time is running out. Martha really found her calling, and recreated herself while at home... To have a spouse who won't help make a home is terrible. Alexis should be so proud of her Mom who had all this trail blazing creativity in her. Why should she have given that up at all? I did the same thing, suppressed my creativity and opportunities for it and to this day I mourn the loss of that possible life, my own, outside being a mother. My son will never understand what I gave up to put him first, as it should be, but I too wanted it all. Thank you Martha for persevering!!

    You mention that your divorse had happened in the midst of your sucess when ha closed that door while you arrived triunfant with glorious results.
    Well, my divorse came because I stayed doing homekeeping and I truly compromised every step of the way.My husband kept ours/his money, became powerful and he abandoned me and my son with nothing.
    So, this world is almost full of_____ weird people.

    I loved this, and I loved seeing Martha a bit more genuine, but I don't appreciate the fact that she doesn't seem to realize MANY MANY people work very hard, some towards a life-long dream, who will never see the success that she has had. I wish she had done more to help the American public understand that hard work is good, but OFTEN there is a great deal of luck involved in "making it", and how important networking is - it is often WHO you know and when you know them, and sometimes, hard work isn't even a factor in someone's success. the sad fact of our society is that it's still the 1% who hold the majority of the wealth in this country, and THIS kind of inequity will not last long

    Today over 38% percent of U.S. households make under $250 a day, which Martha singly (not household) says at ~12:59 "sounds like nothing now," and she was making that much as a part-time supplement to her scholarship money while in college many years ago.

    She is a powerhouse but her success has come with costs. Her marriage and her relationship with her daughter. Mind you i think her husband and daughter are unfair to her because theres only 24hrs in a day and to run a successful business you need to be driven and work extremely hard. Ir doesn't leave you mich time for other things and relationships are blund to suffer.
    I think its not possible to have it all and to say it is , sets up women for a lot of disappointment. Lets be straight here you've got to give 110% to your business to be as successful as tbis woman is. Si i think you've got to choose. Mind you her daughter gave out about Martha not being there for her but she still enjoys the huge Benifits Martha's money brings her.
    As for her ex husband, well he should have married a less driven woman perhaps.
    As for Martha' shes an inspiration and a fantastic role model for young women who want to get ahead in life.
    She also looks fantastic for a woman whos near 80yrs old.
