In this episode, Katey talks about money. Her opinion is that women have been excluded from the money conversation for a really long time and she addresses it from her point of view. So I think that we should change that.

And I think that I want to uphold this industry, you know, I want it to I want the bar to be really high because I think that it should be but I love and respect my peers. And I also mentioned how like sometimes willing to simpleton facts are shared, maybe I should have used a different word than that. But I just meant the basics, but at the same time, sometimes people just want the basics, you know, so maybe I should just shut up. So anyways, I just want to say that. And then I do mention brands that I work with. And I don't want you thinking that it applies to brands that I am in deals with.
