he 'Witch of Wall Street' breaking through the 'glass ceiling'. That would be Patricia Walsh Chadwick. When we last talked with Patricia in 2020 her first book "Little Sister, A Memoir" had just been released and we were left with the idea that there was more to come. A woman of resilience and determination, Patricia's story continues. At the age of seventeen she had been ejected from the only home she'd known since she was five. Turns out it was a cult, a cult that had cut her off from the outside world. How did this teenager who had never even used a phone, turn into a dynamo on Wall Street? Patricia's new book "Breaking Glass, Tales from the Witch of Wall Street" tells the story of a woman who didn't take no for an answer and broke through the old boy's club. Her career started in 1972 at a time when a woman's role on Wall Street was mainly administrative. How then did Patricia work her way up to becoming a portfolio manager overseeing $6 billion dollars of client assets? Listen to a fascinating conversation with Patricia.
