Kelly Ann is the founder of Alternative Wealth Partners, the first private equity firm founded and led by a millennial, openly LGBTQ+ woman. With over a decade of experience, she has raised close to $1 billion in capital for startups, energy companies, manufacturing ventures, real estate, and other key emerging markets.

Key Discussion Points:

00:57 Access to Financial Information: As a woman, it’s not your fault that you don’t have access to financial information. It has been ingrained into society that women are not responsible with money when the reality is very different.

04:47 Female Financial Empowerment: In the last three years there has been a shift towards more female financial empowerment which comes down to an increase in access to information.

05:43 Money Mindset: The first step to creating financial freedom for yourself is to work on your mindset around money.

10:28 Overcoming Historical and Generational Financial Barriers: While you are holding the weight of past generational trauma, the reality is that you are your own entity and you have to do the work to understand your own needs without carrying the burden of everyone else.

In Summary: Kelly Ann Winget challenges us to actively engage in our financial lives and take ownership of our financial well-being. She urges us to start by shifting our mindset around money and defining our financial goals.
