Join me for an incredible conversation with Flossie Hall, a powerhouse entrepreneur who has built and exited multiple seven-figure businesses and is now CEO of Stella Foundation, where she's helped move over $200 million in capital to female founders worldwide. Flossie's journey from growing up in poverty in small-town America to becoming a force for women's economic empowerment is nothing short of extraordinary. Flossie takes us through her early years, from being "toothless Flossie" living in constant instability to becoming a teenage mother determined to break generational cycles. She shares how she navigated working three jobs while earning two undergraduate degrees, even becoming a Distinguished Researcher at the University of Michigan. Her story takes an unexpected turn when a military move forces her to pivot from medical school to accidentally launching a meal prep business that generated $30,000 per month from her home kitchen. Throughout our conversation, Flossie reveals the inflection points that transformed her relationship with money, from the day she realized she could dictate her own income to learning that enough is truly enough. She opens up about teaching her four children about wealth, investing in startups as "lotto tickets," and why she organizes her work into three buckets based on mission, balance, and profit. This episode is a masterclass in turning adversity into advantage and using wealth as a tool for systemic change.
