Caribbean Women Build Wealth: Financial Literacy Strategy | CPA Megan Samuel-Fields

I was honoured to spend this episode chatting with Antiguan Megan Samuel-Fields, who is a woman on a mission to improve financial wellness for Caribbean people. As a certified public accountant (CPA), Attorney-at-Law, PhD candidate, life coach and the CEO of Samuel-Fields Consulting, her plate is full, and her passion for making every second and every cent count is unmistakable.  This episode continues exploring the essential question: how do we, as Caribbean women, maximise our contribution to regional economic development while protecting our wellbeing? We discuss the real barriers - the knowledge gaps, the tendency to follow only what our parents practised - and the specialised strategy required to move beyond them.In this conversation, Megan shares her insights on:The Power of Layering: How combining disciplines (like accounting, law, and finance) has created a powerful, integrated advantage for her as a Caribbean business leader navigating regional and global markets.Her scores on the Island Woman Ambition/Wellbeing Equation™: A candid discussion on balancing a 9/10 ambition with a sustainable 8/10 wellbeing, and the discipline required to maintain that equilibrium.The Founder's Foundation: Practical steps and a "survival kit" for Caribbean entrepreneurs seeking growth and resilience in their ventures.Redefining Financial Health: Moving past traditional definitions to understand financial wellness as a holistic life practice tied to intentional living, not just the balance in your bank account.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Megan Samuel-Fields01:51 Survival Kit for Caribbean Women Entrepreneurs06:01 The Role of Samuel Fields Consulting Group11:55 Passion for Learning and Financial Literacy17:51 Likkle Byte Ideas: A Family Collaboration23:49 The Importance of Financial Wellness29:55 Advice for Aspiring Women EntrepreneursIf you are a Caribbean woman who is building something - whether it’s a business, a career, or a legacy, this is  a conversation that will empower your next move.CONNECT & SUPPORT:Find Megan at:🌐 www.SamuelFieldsConsulting.comFacebook: SamuelFields Consulting Group LinkedIn: Megan Samuel-FieldsIf this conversation resonated with you, please like, share it with a friend, and leave a review.
