This conversation is a reminder that leadership doesn’t require a title—but it does require courage, clarity, and love. We talk about how to advocate for your worth, why setting boundaries is essential, and the questions every woman should ask herself before taking the leap into entrepreneurship.

From owning your value to embracing uncertainty, this episode is full of real talk for women who are ready to create change—from the inside out.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• The must-ask questions before starting your own business
• The art (and necessity) of saying no
• How to advocate for your value—especially when others don’t see it yet
• Why risk-taking is a muscle we all need to flex
• What it means to lead with love, purpose, and authenticity

We can’t wait around for systems to change—we have to be the ones who lead the change, in our companies, communities, and within ourselves.

In this episode of Women, Wealth & Wisdom, Anita sits down with the dynamic Jules Patrick—a strategist, leader, and mentor for so many.

In this bold and inspiring episode of Women, Wealth & Wisdom, Anita sits down with Lorena Cabezas, a leader in asset management who challenges every stereotype about what success is supposed to look like.

Lorena’s story is a powerful reminder that you don’t have to choose between being analytical and people-oriented…or between being an introvert and excelling at business development. You don’t have to come from a traditional background to thrive in this industry. As an immigrant and first-generation college student, Lorena has carved a path that is anything but conventional—and that’s her greatest strength.

Together, we explore: How owning your uniqueness is a strategic advantage A fresh and thought-provoking take on what it really means to be “underrepresented” The mindset shift from hard work to self-advocacy Why leadership isn’t about loudness—it’s about clarity, conviction, and courage

This episode is for anyone who has ever felt “different” in their industry or environment—and wondered if that difference could be a strength. (Spoiler: it absolutely is.)
