Episode 60 - Why Women Need More Money

DESCRIPTION   This week, Shaa shares how women over the age of forty are now the fastest growing business demographic, but also the group that is granted the least amount of funding, and why that needs to change.  KEY TAKEAWAYS  Women over 40 are now the fastest growing group of business owners out there. This has come from a greater need to create financial security and freedom for themselves and their families. This is the time in life when women have hugely valuable experience, a wide network … and yet, limited funding.  Women need a safe space to normalise their ambitions. We need to surround ourselves with like minded women who champion each other. BEST MOMENTS  'We're going to level up our conversations and normalise our ambitions' 'We can't change anything by ourselves - we have to do this collectively' VALUABLE RESOURCES  Building A Bigger Table Podcast - https://omny.fm/shows/building-a-bigger-table    MEET YOUR HOST Hi, I’m Shaa.
