In today’s episode, I speak with Patricia Lizarraga, managing partner at Hypatia Capital. She founded the Hypatia Women CEO ETF, the only investment fund dedicated to publicly traded companies led by women. After decades on Wall Street, she’s seen firsthand what separates high-performing leaders from those who struggle to scale. From funding pitfalls to marketing missteps to the power of bold decision-making, we unpack the key strategies that drive business success.
