Скачать или смотреть How Anyone Can Invest in the Change They Want to See in the World with Marcia Dawood

What if your money could do more than sit in a retirement account?

This month on Smart Women Talk, we’re joined by Marcia Dawood, global leader in angel investing and author of "Doing Good While Doing Well" and "Unapologetic Wealth," for a conversation that will completely change how you think about investing.

Marcia breaks down what angel investing actually is (no finance degree required), why women are uniquely wired to be exceptional investors, and how anyone—yes, even with as little as $100—can invest in ideas, founders, and innovations they care about.

You’ll learn:

What angel investing really means (and how it’s different from Shark Tank)
Why women founders receive only ~2% of venture capital—and how that can change
How to start investing with your values, not just your wallet
Creative ways to invest using donor-advised funds, IRAs, and equity crowdfunding
Simple, low-risk first steps to explore this world without feeling overwhelmed

If you’ve ever wanted your money to reflect what matters most to you, this episode is a must-listen.
