In this episode, Erin speaks with My Founder Circle's co-founders, Emily McDonald & Ankita Terrell on the mental blocks we create around money - whether we have it or don't, whether we raise it, invest it, spend it, save it, make it, or lose it. They share their own personal journeys in re-defining "success", strengthening their business through integrity, and breaking down the narratives of shame we create in our work.

They share the basics of venture funding vs. angel investors & how to determine if you should be seeking funding for your business, how to re-write your version of success, and the questions to ask when you're not sure where to go next.
