Description
In this empowering conversation, Malinda sits down with Dr. Barb Provost, founder of Purse Strings and a PhD in Adult Learning, to unpack why women are too often left out of financial education and how to change that. Dr. Barb shares her unconventional path from bank teller to educator to founder, the origin story of Purse Strings, and how her boutique directory vets financial professionals who truly serve women. You’ll hear practical guidance on money mindset, setting solid business foundations, what to avoid (hello, pricey tactics that don’t convert), and why testing and pivoting matter. The episode also previews Malinda and Barb’s upcoming hands-on workshop for women business owners and closes with Dr. Barb’s “magic wand” wish for every entrepreneur: trusted, affordable guidance when decisions get tough, plus one non-negotiable: know your numbers.
