Linda Fisk, Founder & CEO, LeadHership Global | The Jeff Crilley Show

Women own and operate businesses at record rates, yet they receive less than 2% of all available VC funding. Linda Fisk has spent a decade trying to change that math.Linda is the founder and CEO of LeadHership Global, a community of over 10,000 women leaders spanning Kuala Lumpur, Mumbai, Nairobi, New York, Dallas, Vancouver, and beyond. She's a two-time TEDx speaker, six-time TV producer, international bestselling author, and a returning guest — her first appearance on the show was five years ago.In this conversation, Linda and Jeff talk about the persistent funding gap for women-owned businesses, why blind funding systems dramatically improve outcomes for female entrepreneurs, and how LeadHership Global builds 12-month strategic plans around each member's individual definition of success. Linda also introduces an integration with CurvUp, an AI-powered platform that bundles coaching, investor access, and fractional support into one ecosystem — think LinkedIn meets Upwork meets a VC pitch room.https://leadhershipglobal.comhttps://curvup.io
