🚀 The Time for Women’s Economic Power is NOW: A Venture Capital Perspective 🚀

Recently, I was asked why this moment is ripe for women to assert their voices, secure equal pay, and drive economic change. Despite recent setbacks, my response is rooted in a strategic outlook on emerging trends and opportunities:
🔹 Gender Constructs are Evolving: Today’s younger generations are challenging outdated stereotypes and creating a more inclusive landscape where potential is not determined by gender.
🔹 Wealth Transfer to Women: Women are amassing and deploying wealth with a strategic focus on purpose and values. This isn’t about concessionary returns—it’s about deliberate investments that align with long-term impact and success.
🔹 Community Building and Collaboration: Women are crafting new spaces for growth, learning, and mutual support. They’re creating networks and opportunities that drive real, sustainable progress.

A perfect example of this dynamic shift was the "Playing to Win: A Women in Business Summit" in #Phoenix, held alongside the WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association) All-Star Weekend. This event showcased how women and men from diverse backgrounds—government officials, sports legends, and transformative leaders—are converging at the intersection of business, sports, and economic development, and Phoenix is leading the charge.

Key Insights for Investors and Entrepreneurs:
🏀 Teamwork Over Individual Achievement: Success is a collective effort. Just as the summit’s organizers passed the spotlight, true innovation and growth come from collaborative success.
🎾 Strategic Positioning: In business, just as in sports, finding the right role that aligns with your skills and passions is crucial for achieving extraordinary outcomes.
🏓 Authenticity is a Strength: Genuine leadership and vision drive success. Be true to your mission and values.
⚽ Embrace Failure: It’s an integral part of the growth process. Every setback is a stepping stone to future success.
🏉 Lifelong Learning and Play: Just as play is vital for development, ongoing learning and curiosity are essential for building a resilient and innovative business.
🏀  Character Revealed Through Challenge: As Ann Meyer Drysdale wisely quoted John Wooden, “Sports don’t build character, they reveal it.” The same applies to business and investment—challenges reveal the true potential of your vision.
Let’s harness this moment to invest in diverse voices and innovative ideas. The future of economic growth is here, and it’s driven by women who are reshaping our world.

With appreciation to Jessica Pacheco Megan Schmitz Jenn Daniels Devney Preuss Majerle and the others who organized this grand slam summit and invited me to share my voice, and to #Arizona #Governor Katie Hobbs and Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego for adding their brilliant leadership.

⚡ New podcast drop! ⚡

What a treat to join the formidable Delphine O'Rourke, JD on her American Health Law Association podcast to talk about #womenshealth! 

Delphine and I are kindred spirits and chat about these topics all the time,  and I am thrilled to bring you the 'fly on the wall' experience to hear our conversations ;). 

We dive into:

▶ The arbitrage opportunity in women's health (the #soapbox)

▶ The increasing frequency of #OB and #maternal #health #deserts across the country and why we should be concerned about it

▶ The #ripple #effect of restrictive repro rights on women's wealth and economic mobility -- and business growth and innovation more broadly

▶ Why employer #benefits #programs could use a big revamp

It was a great conversation!!
