The majority of invested assets owned by women are not managed by women. Only 1.4% of assets are managed by women and people of color combined! With up to 70% of wealth projected to be controlled by women by 2030, that gender gap simply won’t do. Barbara Pierce, founder of Women with Capital, has made it her mission to empower women with financial literacy and teach women that they are in control of their investments. She is here today to talk about the community she has created with Women with Capital, and how women should be thinking about their investments. This week’s episode 93 of How Women Inspire Podcast is about unlocking women’s financial power!
In this episode of How Women Inspire Podcast, Barbara Pierce is sharing the importance of financial and investing literacy for women and actionable steps you can take right now to take control of your own wealth management, while still being supported by professionals.
Barbara is the founder of Women with Capital, a private learning community to inspire, educate, and support women in using their wealth as a tool for change. In addition to her roles as an individual investor and founder of Women with Capital®, Barbara has 25 years of experience facilitating partnerships between top philanthropists and nonprofits.
Some of the talking points Julie and Barbara go over in this episode include:
Realizing early that investing is the key to building wealth.
Empowering women through financial literacy and investing, especially for social good.
The problem of women’s wealth predominantly being managed by men.
The psychology of wealth and how it guides people's actions, beliefs, and feelings of worthiness.
