    Ep 12 - Jennifer: on Marriage, Divorce and Building a Million Dollar Business

    This week we're talking to Jennifer, and you don't want to miss this episode! We talked about so much, from marriage, to staying home to raise kids, to divorce and what all of that meant for her finances. After Jennifer's divorce, she bet on herself and grew her interior design business into a million dollar business. It was during her time in the interior design business that she noticed a lack of female representation in the real estate investment world. This led Jennifer to launch WIRE Investment Corp. in 2019, with the intent to create wealth and opportunity for female investors. We loved talking about all of this with Jennifer, who believes that female capital - in talent, insight, and experience, as well as money - is one of the great untapped resources, and we couldn't agree more!
