Ep 38: Making Music (And Profits) With Jody Gerson
How She Does It
03/11/24 • 38 min
Music is ever-present in our lives, from our morning exercise routines until bed. And we all have a "life soundtrack" of songs that transport us to a moment or an era — one note and you're right back there. Music is also a multi-billion dollar business. But who runs this business? Despite so many of the biggest performers being women, the industry itself has long suffered from a lack of women and diversity — not only on the talent side but also on the executive side.
One of the most powerful longstanding players in this business is Jody Gerson, Chairman and CEO of Universal Music Publishing Group. She’s the first woman ever to hold the position at a major music publisher, and since joining UMPG in 2015, she’s transformed the company, which has now surpassed $2 billion dollars in revenue.
Listen to how she got her start in the music industry, how she can tell the difference between a mediocre song and a hit, and why she is working to make the industry more inclusive for women.

To be a ballet dancer, you must be a dancer, an athlete, and a performer all at the same time. It is a competitive and complex hierarchy, with thousands of dancers funneling to just a small handful at the very top. And that tiny percentage of ballerinas at the pinnacle has looked the same for over 100 years... There is an overwhelming lack of diversity in the professional ballet world, and the prevalent stereotypes persist around who achieves success.
Misty Copeland turned these notions on their head when she became American Ballet Theatre’s first Black Principal dancer and ballet’s biggest superstar. Listen in to hear more about the obstacles Misty has faced and how she’s overcome them, why she felt an immediate bond with Prince, and what she’s doing to change ballet to make it more accessible to everyone.

Ep 35: Pinky Cole Hopes You Fail
How She Does It
02/19/24 • 36 min
There are countless situations in which risky behavior can be detrimental to your life. But there’s one area though, where risk can be a very good thing — sometimes life-changingly incredible. That’s with entrepreneurship and your career. In fact, not taking risks is arguably one of the riskiest things you can do in your career, and perhaps no one knows this better than Pinky Cole, owner of Slutty Vegan, and author of “I Hope You Fail: Ten Hater Statements Holding You Back From Getting Everything You Want.”
Pinky Cole knows exactly what it means to take risks in her career, fail, and get back up again. When her first restaurant burned down, she didn’t let it break her. Instead, she took it as a sign that she wasn’t fully aligned with her purpose, and chose to completely reset. Fast forward to today, and she’s the owner of the multimillion-dollar vegan empire Slutty Vegan. Our favorite bit of Pinky Cole brilliance from this conversation? “The sky is not the limit, there’s so much more beyond it.” We couldn’t agree more.

Ep 46: Making Jobs In Finance More Accessible To Women
How She Does It
05/06/24 • 30 min
According to research by Deloitte, the number of women who reach the highest level of leadership in financial services is on the rise, with women holding 18% of financial C-suite positions globally. But the research also says that number is climbing slowly — without a more concerted effort, women financial leaders may not even reach 25% by 2031.
Lindsay Hans, President and Co-head of Merrill Wealth Management, is working to change that. In her role, she’s committed to lowering the barrier to entry for women financial advisors — including being a strong advocate for their new training program which is more attractive to female advisors who may not have a pre-existing network of wealthy connections.
Takeaways:
- Historical reasons, such as wealth distribution and demographics, have contributed to the underrepresentation of women in the financial services industry.
- The presence of women in leadership roles in the financial services industry is slow but increasing
- Younger women are increasingly knowledgeable and comfortable with financial decisions.
- There is a preference for financial advisors of the same sex, but it varies on a case-by-case basis.
Chapters:
00:00 - Introduction
06:51 - Lindsay Hans Career Advancement
16:20 - Initiatives to Support Women Financial Advisors
20:40 - Advisors and Client Relationships
25:58 - Challenges in Attracting Women to Financial Advisory Role
30:15 - Conclusion

Mellody Hobson, President and Co-CEO of Ariel Investments is using her influence as one of America’s most powerful women to create more revenue for minority-owned businesses with Project Black.

It’s been a crazy year for interest rates, banks, and mortgage rates. Thankfully, we’ve avoided a recession this year, and about 61% of economists say it's probably not going to happen in the next 12 months. But still, things are a bit scary. And while it’s not nearly as bad, most of us can remember how scary the 2008 financial crisis was. It was the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression in 1929.
Sheila Bair, the former Chair of the FDIC helped navigate us through the 2008 economic crisis and rang the warning bells when no one else was listening. She joins us today to talk about why she doesn’t think what happened then would ever repeat itself. We also chat about her new series of books for kids called “Money Tales” and her mission to teach children early to protect their hard-earned cash.
