The Girl Disruptor: Elizabeth Lumley on Buzzwords, Bankers & Taylor Swift
from Good Company: The Zngly Podcast · host Mike
"We were promised flying cars; instead, we got robo-advisors and a box full of old cables." Welcome to the debut episode of Good Company, the podcast that ditches the corporate script to find the human side of B2B. Host Mike Wilson sits down with the legendary Elizabeth Lumley; journalist, keynote speaker, and self-proclaimed "Girl Disruptor"; for a conversation that pulls no punches. Elizabeth has been covering the sector since the 90s and has zero tolerance for fluff, kicking things off by banishing the phrase "Agentic AI is your best Intern" to the Buzzword Bin forever!Swapping war stories from the golden age of banking conferences, including a legendary 90s party featuring caviar and champagne that preceded a bankruptcy filing by just three weeks. But it’s not all laughs; Elizabeth gets candid about the reality of ageism in Fintech and challenges the myth of the perfect 30-year-old founder. We wrap things up with a surprising confession about why this veteran journalist is an unapologetic Taylor Swift fan. It is smart, loud, and definitely Good Company. Real conversations with interesting people.
