Women, Money, and Power

As women and business owners, our relationship with money is complex. We’re constantly challenged by our internalized scarcity mindset, the wage gap, and financial barriers in a system that wasn’t designed to benefit us.

But money, at the end of the day, is a resource at your disposal4. And if you choose to channel it as an agent of power, freedom, and equity, that’s exactly what it’ll bring you!

That’s just one of the exciting concepts we’re discussing in this week’s episode!

In September, a panel of five female founders got together for our annual Thrive Online fireside chat, Women, Money, and Power. We spoke candidly about the power of money and influence, feminist businesses, and finance. And this week’s episode is the complete and unadulterated discussion from that very panel!

We’re extremely proud to present Kelly Diels (Feminist marketing teacher), Emily Howe (Founder of The American Association of Corporate Gender Strategists, Claire Wasserman (Founder of Ladies Get Paid), Naomi Scott Clark (Feminist marketing coach), and Amina AlTai (Leadership and mindfulness coach) as our guests for this episode!

Here’s what you can expect from this one:

Building an empire versus building power (and sharing it!)

What a “feminist business” really means
Why pushing past our internalized income ceilings is activism

Scarcity and abundance as gendered teachings

Origin stories of some of today’s most influential female-owned movement-building businesses 

Defining “influence” and claiming it’s power
Acknowledging your inner power, cultivating a practice of self-trust, and knowing what you’re worth

What makes this episode so special is the honesty with which every panelist brings her own financial experiences to the table. No matter where you are in your own financial journey, you’ll find yourself feeling a little more motivated and well-informed once the headphones come off. 

So cozy up, and tune in—this is the only girl-talk you need this week!
