“As we come back from the pandemic, there is a growing recognition that "one size fits all" in a patriarchal society means one size fits men. And that we can do things for all the different genders based on their needs."

-Sallie Krawcheck, CEO and Co-Founder of Ellevest, on creating a space for women in finance and investing.

 

For this episode of the podcast, we sit down with Sallie Krawcheck, CEO and Co-Founder of Ellevest, to discuss Women & Wealth: A Roadmap for Financial Empowerment.

Ellevest is a tech-first financial company built by women for women – to help women earn more money, save more money, and invest in growing their money.
