This week, we’re talking all things money moves with Molly Benjamin, the powerhouse founder behind Ladies Finance Club, where the mission is simple but bold: help women take charge of their finances and build their wealth. From her early days working in communications in a bank to empowering over 60,000 women in achieving their financial goals, Molly knows a thing or two about money – and she’s here to spill!
In this episode, we dive into Molly's journey, her insights on money mindset, and why clear, fearless financial communication is key (especially in relationships). Plus, Molly shares the mistakes she commons sees women making, how she handles the odd spanner and why she loves what she does (we love it too!)
Get ready for a fun and vulnerable conversation that’s both empowering and inspiring, because, as Molly says, it’s time for women to get rich – and stay that way!
