Redesigning the System for Women to Make More Money, with Cindy Gallop

Cindy Gallop is an advocate of gender equality, diversity, and inclusion - an entrepreneur who, in her own words, is ‘the Micheal Bay of business. I like to blow s**t up”. She is hugely passionate about women ‘making tonnes of money’ so that we can invest more in the things we believe in, as well as changing the world to build a more female-dominated financial ecosystem that serves women better.

Today on The Wallet:

1/ Cindy shares the challenges she faces securing funding for her start-up, how she designed a business model around her beliefs and values, and the struggles involved with building an adult content business.

2/ We discuss the disparity in funding between men, women, women of colour and minorities and the mindset shifts we need to see in investors to get more women funded both broadly and indiscriminately.

3/ Cindy tells me her experience of salary negotiations, how she has learnt to know her worth, the advice she shares with women to build their confidence in asking for more and how our micro-actions compound to be real change.
