What happens when women stop treating money as taboo — and start using it as power?
In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Marcia Dawood, author of Do Good While Doing Well, TEDx speaker, host of The Angel Next Door Podcast to talk about the real story behind women, wealth, and financial confidence — and why we’re standing at a turning point.
Together, we unpack:
How generations of conditioning shaped women’s relationship with money
Why financial independence is about more than numbers — it’s about choice
How angel investing is opening doors for women to support women
The mindset shift required to move from “money avoidance” to “money ownership”
Marcia shares her personal journey into angel investing, breaks down the myths that keep women on the sidelines, and explains how investing — even at a small level — can create meaningful social impact and financial return.
This conversation is empowering, practical, and deeply validating for any woman who’s ever thought:
“I’m not good with money.”
(Plot twist: you are.)
You’ll walk away knowing:
Women are far more capable with money than we’ve been led to believe
Access to investing has changed — and it’s more available than ever
Community and collective action are key to closing the wealth gap
You don’t need to be rich to invest — you need to be informed
Doing good and doing well can absolutely coexist
If you’re ready to rewrite your money story — and step into financial confidence with curiosity instead of fear — this episode is a must-listen.
