Corcoran, an entrepreneur and longtime investor on ABC's "Shark Tank," cited herself an example. And on "Shark Tank," it leads her to seek out entrepreneurs who question themselves. "Everyone's got self-doubt," Corcoran said. It may even be a shared experience among "Shark Tank" investors. Disclosure: CNBC owns the exclusive off-network cable rights to "Shark Tank."
Corcoran and his attorney Michael Levy entered the federal courthouse in Washington and went to the third floor, where the grand jury typically meets. Attorneys for Trump did not respond to a request for comment on the court order compelling Meadows and other former aides to testify. At that June meeting, the lawyers handed over a single envelope containing 38 documents with classified markings. Corcoran is one of multiple Trump attorneys who have been summoned to appear before the grand jury. Tim Parlatore, another attorney, voluntarily testified before the same grand jury in December to explain the steps Trump's legal team took to comply with the May 2022 subpoena.

REUTERS/Jonathan ErnstWASHINGTON, March 24 (Reuters) - Donald Trump's attorney Evan Corcoran appeared on Friday before a federal grand jury investigating the former U.S. president's retention of classified documents after he left the White House in January 2021. Corcoran and his attorney Michael Levy entered the federal courthouse in Washington and went to the third floor where the grand jury typically meets. In May 2022, Trump received a grand jury subpoena ordering him to turn over any records with classified markings, and officials from the Justice Department and FBI met with Trump's attorneys in June to enforce the subpoena. That claim later proved to be false, after the FBI discovered about 100 additional classified records among some 13,000 government documents in its Aug. 8 search.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump speaks to reporters before his speech at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) at Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center on March 4, 2023 in National Harbor, Maryland. The Manhattan panel is probing a $130,000 payment Trump's then-personal lawyer Michael Cohen gave porn star Stormy Daniels shortly before Election Day 2016. That grand jury could resume work on Monday. Trump's legal team earlier this week lost a last-ditch effort at the federal appeals court for the District of Columbia to block a Corcoran's ordered appearance. Those investigations are taking place even as Trump is seeking the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
A federal judge ordered Trump's lawyer to provide more grand jury testimony in the Mar-a-Lago case. The DOJ is investigating whether Trump potentially mishandled classified documents. The judge rejected Trump's lawyers claims of attorney-client privilege. The ruling compels Corcoran to provide additional testimony before the grand jury investigating the classified documents case — one of at least four major ongoing criminal inquiries involving Trump. Georgia's Fulton County is also investigating Trump and his allies' efforts to overturn the state's 2020 elections results.
"Negotiation really has to do with ego and timing," Corcoran tells CNBC Make It. Roughly three decades ago, Corcoran was approached with an offer to sell her real estate business The Corcoran Group, and she was interested in cashing out, she says. So, when real estate company NRT offered her $22 million for The Corcoran Group roughly 10 years later, in 2001, she quickly submitted her counteroffer — asking for $66 million instead. "As a real estate broker running 1,000 sales agents, I had to teach them negotiating skills," Corcoran says. But the trend dissipates as women gain negotiating experience, noted a 2015 moderator analysis published in The Psychological Bulletin.
You never get a second chance at a first impression — which Barbara Corcoran learned the day she met her "Shark Tank" co-star Mark Cuban. That initial encounter was Corcoran's "most embarrassing moment on 'Shark Tank,'" the Corcoran Group founder said in a recent TikTok video outlining the incident. "I look at the guy next to me, and it's the luggage guy sitting in the seat next to me," she said. Cuban, the billionaire owner of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks, joined "Shark Tank" as guest Shark in 2011, during its second season, and became a main investor a season later.

Corcoran said on TikTok she sold 88 "terrible apartments" in New York City in a single day. According to Corcoran, the sales took place amid a turbulent economy in the early 1990s when her real estate company Corcoran Group was struggling to stay afloat. "I had 88 apartments that were sitting on the market for three years." When the last unit of the nearly 100 apartments sold that day, Corcoran said there were still 50 people waiting in line. Corcoran's key takeaway from the strategy: "In business, everybody wants what everybody wants, but nobody wants what nobody wants."
Levy was hired by Corcoran's law firm, Silverman Thompson Slutkin & White, to represent Corcoran in the probe, according to one of the people. Levy, a principal at the Washington law firm Ellerman Enzinna Levy, declined to comment. Corcoran has appeared before a grand jury in connection with U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigation into classified documents taken to Mar-a-Lago following Trump's term in office and possible attempts to obstruct that probe. Another Trump lawyer, Christina Bobb, signed a certification that all classified documents had been returned before the FBI found about 100 additional classified documents during an August 2022 search, according to prosecutors. Trump has denied wrongdoing and claimed, without offering evidence, that all documents at his residence had been declassified.
Finding the time, or motivation, to read a 300-plus page book after an exhausting workday is no easy feat. "There is so much valuable knowledge you can learn from books and put into practice in your own life …. Many of the world's most successful business leaders, from Bill Gates to Warren Buffett, are proud bibliophiles, citing reading as an important habit for sparking creativity and broadening your understanding of the world. Gates said that Gallwey's insights "subtly affected" how he showed up to work throughout his career at Microsoft. This "is an outstanding book about CEOs who excelled at capital allocation," Buffett wrote in his 2012 letter to shareholders.
Now, she has two new business partners and a "Shark Tank" deal: During the episode, Barbara Corcoran and Robert Herjavec gave Farzin a combined $600,000 for 10% of Oogiebear. The investors promised to give up half of that equity if the company doesn't hit $400 million in sales within two years. So she took $22,000 from her savings, quit her full-time pharmacist job and founded Potomac, Maryland-based Oogiebear. On Friday's episode of ABC's "Shark Tank," Farzin told investors how far she'd come: Since launching her booger-removal business, Oogiebear had made $15 million in revenue. But Farzin stayed focused on Corcoran and Herjavec, asking them for a combined $600,000 instead.
