Lisa Sugar started her career in advertising, but it wasn't a job that excited her. She was passionate about writing about celebrities, fashion and beauty, so in 2005 she started the blogPopSugar. Her husband Brian helped her build the website, and when he saw how quickly it was taking off he encouraged her to quit her job and work on building out the site full-time. She did just that, and six months later Brian did the same and joined her as they built what has become a global media empire.
