119 | Women in Finance, How to create authority, confidence, and visibility with Andréa Toucinho

Andrea Toucinho entered the payments world without a finance background. She was young, surrounded by men, and navigating an industry that can feel intimidating even for experienced professionals.
What changed her path was her determination to learn, stay curious, and build her voice one step at a time.

In this episode we talk about what it really takes for a woman to create authority in finance.
How to start from zero and still position yourself with confidence.
How personal study becomes credibility.
How sharing your insights helps you build a recognisable voice.
And how staying true to yourself can open doors even in the most technical industries.

We also touch on the value of networking, visibility, and speaking opportunities for women who want to stand out in payments and finance.

This conversation is simple, honest, and full of practical lessons for anyone who is building their own space in an industry that wasn’t designed for them.
