Getting Rich Together

Getting Rich Together

By 2030, women are projected to inherit more than $30 trillion in wealth. That’s power and possibility—but here’s the catch: women still earn just 85 cents on the dollar, and we don’t get a 15% discount when we shop. Financial literacy and confidence haven’t kept up with the times. That’s where Getting Rich Together comes in. I’m Syama Bunten. After my divorce, I wrote to fifty women asking to talk about money. Ninety-five percent said no. But the few who said yes changed everything. They became my wealth expanders—showing me new ways to think about money, power, and what’s possible.

They were, in essence, my personal wealth catalysts -- something we can all be for each other as we unlock the wisdom inside. This podcast brings those conversations and that catalyst to you. Each week, you’ll meet women across industries and backgrounds—investors, founders, leaders, and creatives—who are redefining wealth on their own terms. Their stories are here to expand your vision, unlock your wisdom, fuel your confidence, create a wealth catalyst in your own life, and remind you that wealth isn’t built alone. It’s built together.
