I didn’t want to learn from Kim Kardashian.
I didn’t want to learn from Kylie Jenner either.
Even though I admired their success, I wasn’t interested in learning from influencers who’d built fame-first empires.
But I did want to learn from the woman behind them — Kris Jenner.
The strategist. The brand architect. The brain behind an empire.
So when I saw Kris Jenner teaching a course on branding and business on MasterClass, that was it — I signed up.
And what I discovered wasn’t just a course. It was an entire platform designed for strategic thinkers, entrepreneurs, and creatives who want to grow in every area of life.
What Is MasterClass?
MasterClass is an online learning platform — but unlike anything you’ve seen before.
It doesn’t teach through textbooks, templates, or tutorials. It teaches through lived experience.
Every class is led by a world-renowned expert in their field:
Award-winning authors, Oscar-winning directors, fashion legends, startup founders, athletes, designers, scientists, and more.
But what makes MasterClass truly different is how it teaches.
It’s not just about how to do something. It’s about understanding why the best in the world do it that way — and what mindset they carry behind every choice.
If traditional courses teach you the tools, MasterClass teaches you the thinking.
Why Entrepreneurs Are Hooked
I work in the fashion industry, so I was immediately drawn to classes by:
-
Anna Wintour on creativity and leadership
- Marc Jacobs on design identity
- Diane von Furstenberg on branding and purpose
- But what surprised me was how MasterClass crosses industries seamlessly:
- Chris Voss, former FBI negotiator, teaches business negotiation
- Howard Schultz of Starbucks teaches leading with values
- Bobbi Brown teaches beauty and brand-building
- Malcolm Gladwell teaches storytelling that shapes public thinking
- Serena Williams teaches mental resilience
- Gordon Ramsay teaches systems, feedback, and leadership — disguised as cooking
MasterClass is available on Firestick, right next to Netflix — but I choose MasterClass.
These aren’t siloed lessons. They’re interdisciplinary insights that unlock strategy, mindset, and creative problem-solving. Whether you’re in fashion, tech, writing, wellness, or marketing, you’ll walk away with high-level clarity.
Learn Strategy, Not Just Skills
Most online learning platforms focus on implementation: how to write a resume, build a funnel, design a logo.
MasterClass is different. It’s built for visionaries — those who are already doing the work but want to do it smarter, sharper, and with more edge.
It’s about thinking differently.
Every course feels like sitting down with a mentor — someone who’s already been where you want to go, generously walking you through their mistakes, mindset shifts, and game plans.
This is a strategy-level shift.
My Favorite Classes (So Far)
| Instructor | You’ll Learn |
|---|---|
| Kris Jenner | Personal branding, business development, media strategy |
| Anna Wintour | Creative leadership, decision-making, and brand curation |
| Chris Voss | Negotiation tactics from the FBI to the boardroom |
| Bobbi Brown | Beauty entrepreneurship and reinventing your career |
| Diane von Furstenberg | Brand storytelling, authenticity, and creative vision |
| Serena Williams | Discipline, pressure, and mental strength |
| Gordon Ramsay | Systems thinking, team building, and performance culture |
| Malcolm Gladwell | How ideas spread, and how to shape them |
Each course is broken into 10–20 short episodes (about 10 minutes each), so you can binge it like Netflix — except this binge makes your business and mindset better.
From fashion to mindset — here’s what’s on my MasterClass list this week.
How I Watch It (TV-Style with Firestick)
One of the best parts of MasterClass?
It doesn’t feel like “school.” It feels like Netflix for high achievers.
I prefer watching on my living room TV, just like I would any other show.
All you need is the MasterClass app, which is available on Apple TV, Roku, or my personal favorite — Amazon Firestick.
If you’re someone who learns better visually and wants an immersive, high-production experience, this setup is perfect.
My favorite way to watch MasterClass — relaxing, inspiring, and screen-free from my laptop.

Recap
MasterClass changed the way I learn — not just what I know.
It helped me level up in several areas: how I lead, design, negotiate, and think about growth.
It’s not about becoming someone else. It’s about learning from those who’ve done it their way — and using that wisdom to do it your way.
So the next time you’re tempted to binge a show on Netflix…
Consider watching something that fuels your creativity, sharpens your business instincts, and gives you access to the minds that shape the world.
You’ll find it all in one place: MasterClass.
