Episode 115: An Interview with Syama Bunten, Founder of Wealth Catalyst and Principal of Big Delta Capital

In this episode of Positive Impact Philanthropy, Lori Kranczer speaks with Syama Bunten, principal of Big Delta Capital and founder of Wealth Catalyst. Syama shares her journey from working in fashion and entrepreneurship to stepping into the world of investing and wealth building after a pivotal life transition. Through her work, she is creating spaces where women can take ownership of their financial futures and feel confident using their capital with intention. This conversation explores the powerful shift happening as more women step into both earned and inherited wealth, and the critical need to close the confidence gap around money and investing. Syama highlights how community, shared knowledge, and aligned values can transform not only how women approach wealth, but how they use it to create meaningful impact in the world. Her approach reframes philanthropy and investing as deeply personal, relational, and purpose-driven practices.   You'll hear about: The growing opportunity for women through wealth creation and wealth transfer Why confidence, not knowledge, is often the biggest barrier to financial empowerment How Wealth Catalyst is building a community for women to learn, invest, and grow together The importance of peer networks and shared experiences in shaping financial decisions Creative approaches to giving that prioritize connection and alignment over size of gift How life transitions can spark a deeper sense of purpose and agency with money Syama's vision for helping women use capital to create lasting impact and legacy   Connect with Syama!
