Over deze podcast
How do women get rich? Getting Rich Together brings you the money conversations most people never get to hear.
I'm Syama Bunten, founder of Wealth Catalyst, wealth strategist, and private investor. After my divorce, I wrote to fifty women asking to talk about money. Ninety-five percent said no.
The women who said yes changed how I thought about wealth, power, and what was possible. Their openness inspired this podcast.
Each week, I interview women founders, investors, executives, and creatives about how they earn, invest, build businesses, and make financial decisions. Guests include Rebecca Minkoff, Jacki Zehner, Fran Hauser, and Jennifer Justice. We talk about entrepreneurship, angel investing, venture capital, financial independence, retirement, philanthropy, and generational wealth.
We also explore the personal side of money: childhood beliefs, ambition, marriage, divorce, setbacks, and the relationships that open doors. You'll hear the decisions behind financial outcomes and the lessons women rarely share publicly.
These women became my wealth expanders. Their stories can help you see new opportunities, ask better questions, and take greater ownership of your financial future.
Follow Getting Rich Together with Syama Bunten for new conversations about women, money, and wealth every week.
