Changing the Conversation About Women, Money & Collaboration

“Everything has to do with wealth, not just your money,” says Meghann Conter, CEO and Founder of The Dames and business woman extraordinaire. On this episode of Get Rich Without Being a Bitch, host Vanessa Shaw talks with Meghann about her community of female entrepreneurs with six- and seven-figure businesses, and what inspired her to start looking at networking as an opportunity to collaborate, learn, and grow both personally and professionally.  Meghann started the Dames after more than seven years of fruitless networking. She realized she was wasting time - and she wanted to facilitate a safe community for women to learn from each other and grow as people and entrepreneurs. Now, the Dames has more than 400 members internationally, and is on target to double that number in 2021. But for Meghann, it wasn’t always an easy journey. Her work in the Dames requires her to continually do personal work -- and that’s part of what she loves about it.  Tune in for a rich conversation about the struggles women face as they search for authentic professional communities, how Meghann overcame her money story and started talking to her husband about what it feels like to be the breadwinner, and the secret to achieving growth not just in your bank account, but across the many facets of your life.  Quotes: "She said to me...
