Redefining Wealth: Empowering Women to Build Financial Confidence with Shae Invidiata
Welcome back to Small Business School! In today’s episode, Staci sits down with Shae Invidiata, a passionate advocate for women’s financial sovereignty and holistic wealth. Together, they dive into how women can break free from shame around money, embrace confidence in financial conversations, and build legacies that last generations. Shae shares how money isn’t just about numbers, it’s about energy, self-worth, and the freedom to design your life with intention. This conversation will leave you inspired to take up space at the financial table and start seeing wealth as a tool for impact.
Key topics covered:
- Why women often feel shame or discomfort talking about money — and how to shift that narrative
- The importance of learning the language of money to create true financial freedom
- How to build your own “locker room talk” spaces where women can discuss investing, tax strategy, and wealth openly
- Shae’s real-life journey from real estate to financial empowerment — and the lessons learned along the way
- A modern perspective on investments, including why she’s rethinking traditional education funds in favor of long-term legacy planning
Remember, building wealth isn’t about having it all figured out, it’s about taking one empowered step at a time toward the life you want.
