Money is a Tool to Unlock Your Greatest Vision with Eva Yazhari, CEO & Founder of Beyond Capital Fund

Please join me in welcoming the gorgeous and prolific Eva Yazzari, founder and CEO of the Beyond Capital Fund, to the show this week. Eva, who has spent the past 15 years driving transformative change through her investment fund, shares her remarkable journey from a precocious child in Staten Island to a powerful venture capitalist investing in emerging markets. 

 

We explore her early money stories, her initial foray into finance, and the profound life experiences that shaped her entrepreneurial spirit and values-driven investment philosophy. Eva recounts her childhood entrepreneurial ventures, including selling bubble gum at a profit, and her ambitious pivot from pre-med to mathematics, which set the groundwork for her future in finance. 

 

She discusses her unconventional path, starting a career in finance before she even graduated college, maneuvering through hedge fund work, and her decisive move to Switzerland during the financial crisis, which was pivotal in her founding the Beyond Capital Fund. Eva candidly reflects on her personal growth, the importance of aligning money with values, and the moment she fully realized her life’s mission. 

 

Eva's inspiring story illuminates the path of marrying profitability with purpose and highlights the significance of building a legacy that transcends mere financial success. Tune in for a deeply reflective and enlightening conversation on how money can serve as a force for good in the world.
