Barbara Corcoran's bright-eyed smiles and quick wit come across as vibrant as the pinks and yellows she favors in her wardrobe and home décor. But there is no mistaking this multi-millionaire entrepreneur's no-nonsense approach to business.

Corcoran is widely recognized as one of the 'shark' investors from the popular ABC reality showShark Tank, but she also has long been known as a real estate mogul in New York City. Her jackpot success came with the sale of her real estate company, The Corcoran Group, for $66 million in 2001.

She shares the humbling moment that taught her an important life lesson, her secret for growing a business, plus pitching mistakes from the shark tank and much more.
