Let's talk about money

11/15/23 • 38 min

In today's episode, I tackle yet another uncomfortable topic - money. Women have serious challenges talking about money and this makes our lives and businesses unnecessarily harder. But, there is a good (and bad) reason for that. In this insightful episode, I talk about:

why is important for men to know more about women's discomfort about money
are we really so uncomfortable about it?
my journey with money
why do we need to change it
how to build better relationships with money and get what we are worth

Understanding our relationship and discomfort around money is the first step to empowering ourselves financially. While there are still so many obstacles in front of women to reach financial equality, talking about money openly is a good start. Sharing my story, I hope to normalize conversations around money, fight bias, and help women get a more positive attitude towards it.

My Burnout Journey

I had a bad burnout.
Even today, it's still painful to talk about it. But, we don't talk enough about burnout. There is still a lot of shame around it. Even if so many professionals had it, you always get a piece of advice to better keep it for yourself. I say, let's not.
In today's episode, join us on my personal odyssey through burnout. This story is a raw and honest account of the mental, emotional, and physical challenges I encountered, ones that many women in similar positions can relate to.
Discover how to recognize the warning signs and, more importantly, how I took decisive action to reclaim my well-being. I share the strategies, insights, and resilience that guided me out of the burnout abyss and onto a path of renewed purpose and balance.
If you've ever questioned the cost of success and what it truly means to thrive in both career and life, this episode is a must-listen. So grab your favorite beverage, settle into a comfy spot, and join us for this illuminating conversation on reclaiming balance and well-being, one woman's story at a time.

Episode 7: Immigrant Entrepreneur Story

You might wonder why am I talking about the immigrant entrepreneur. Wasn't this podcast supposed to be about female entrepreneurs?
I have been an immigrant most of my professional life. This lived experience heavily affected my career, my business, and my life choices. I can't talk about being an entrepreneur without talking about what it means to be an immigrant woman too.
As it happens, my experience is from Finland and the story is mine. But, who knows, it might have happened somewhere else too. Or it might happen completely differently for someone else.
In this episode, I talk about:

how my immigrant identity affected my business
personal experience dealing with immigration-based bias
challenges of being a foreign entrepreneur in Finland
how does it compare to be an immigrant entrepreneur in Finland vs Croatia

There are many immigrant stories out there, some more positive and sadly, some more negative than mine. I'm openly sharing my own, not to judge the country or get sympathy. We can't fix what we ignore and raising awareness of the issues immigrants sometimes face, is a step forward to fixing them, together.
