Money as Power: How Women Are Changing Who Writes the Checks with Natalie Levy
About this episode
Leisa Peterson interviews Natalie Levy about women's financial agency and the impact of angel investing.
What does it actually take for women to step into financial agency? In this episode, Leisa talks with Natalie Levy — engineer, former Wall Street derivatives trader, and founder of She's Independent — about angel investing, what holds women back from writing checks, and how taking action changes your mindset more than anything else will. Natalie shares how she started angel investing with $10–15K checks early in her career, how the death of her mother cracked open a deeper mission, and why she built a community where women can learn to invest even before they have the capital to do it.
