How Angel Investing is Helping Women Start More Businesses

Being an entrepreneur myself, I’ve always known that the trickiest part of running your own business or starting your own side hustle is the money part. How do you get enough money to get up and running? You could borrow money from friends and a family, use your own cash, or look for investors who believe in your idea. In this episode, we’re talkin’ all about a different form of investing called angel investing and how women are using angel investing to bridge the gender gap in entrepreneurship and start some kick-ass businesses. Loretta McCarthy is the Co-Ceo and Managing Partner of Golden Seeds, one of the largest and most active angel investment networks in the US and by far the largest that invests in early-stage women-led companies. Yes, please! Loretta is here to give you all the details on what angel investing is, how angel investing can help jump start your business, how to get your company all set up for investors and so much more.
