Meet Corri McFadden, founder of eDropoff, the former multi-million dollar luxury consignment business that helped pioneer an entire industry. She launched with $36 in her bank account, scaled to national recognition, and even landed a VH1 show. But 15 years later, Corey made the kind of power move most founders are too afraid to make: she walked away.
