It hit me out of nowhere like a drive-by bullet…

“Selfish, money-driven women like you who adopt are shameful.”

And that was just a small part of a lengthy DM I got after sharing my experience of being the only woman in a group of founders at a mastermind event to my stories. (I share the stories and full DM in this episode.)

What I didn’t expect was that the very same experience at the mastermind that I was criticized for, prepared me to handle the DM in a way I wouldn’t have before.

In this episode, I’m sharing the lessons I learned from the mastermind hike we took in the Phoenician Desert, my breakthrough moment while feeling uncomfortable and different, and how to access high-level business networks before you have the money to invest.
