EP 1 Why Now: The Time for Women, Wealth & Wisdom is Here

In this powerful debut episode, host Anita Knotts, founder of the Lotus Women’s Institute, shares why now is the moment to launch Women, Wealth & Wisdom — a podcast years in the making.

In conversation with marketing executive Pamela Von Lehmden, Anita opens up about her 30+ year journey in the wealth management industry, her experience as an Indian immigrant, and her mission to create a space where women’s voices, stories, and financial power are fully seen and heard.

You’ll hear stories from women in the corporate world, nonprofit sector, public office, and entrepreneurship — all sharing how they’ve navigated challenges, claimed their worth, and redefined success on their own terms. Together, their experiences reveal a powerful truth: when women are economically empowered, they don’t just change their own lives — they change the world.
