Foundations #9: Community Changes How Women Build Wealth
Wealth B-Hers
We talk a lot about the internal work of building wealth: reframing what money means, examining our triggers, defining what security looks like for you. In this episode, Felecia turns to something we don't talk about enough, the myth that financially successful women figure everything out alone. She unpacks how isolation taxes our financial lives in decisions delayed, opportunities missed, and energy spent performing a confidence we don't actually feel, and makes the case for why the right community isn't about accountability check-ins, but about something deeper: belief, believing in yourself...

Foundations #8: What I've Learned From Women With More Money Than Peace
Wealth B-Hers
Some women reach the number they thought would make them feel safe and still feel anxious, vigilant, exhausted, or like there will never be enough. The problem is not that something went wrong. Sometimes, it is that everything went right, but the stories beneath the money never changed. In this episode, Dr. Felecia Froe shares what she has learned from women who have more money than peace. Wealth can fund a different life, but it cannot rewrite fear, guilt of a scarcity mindset.

Foundations #7: Purpose Before Portfolio
Wealth B-Hers
Before you invest a dollar, there’s one question that matters more than the return, the structure, or the opportunity itself: What do you want this money to do for you? Not what did someone else earn. Not how much can this grow. What is this money meant to create in your life? In this episode, Dr. Felecia Froe explains why investing without purpose can leave you wealthy on paper but misaligned in reality. Money is a tool, and tools only make sense when you know what you are building. When your purpose is clear, the question changes from “Is this a good deal?” to “Does this move me...

Boring Money, The Steady Kind with Fred Moskowitz
Wealth B-Hers

That’s where this conversation starts. Dr. Felecia sits down with Barry Levine, a Massachusetts-based bankruptcy attorney with more than 45 years of experience helping individuals and small business owners navigate serious financial strain. Barry has seen people walk into his office scared, ashamed, overwhelmed, and convinced they are out of options. What he has learned is that the legal process often has structure, but fear can keep people frozen long before they ever ask for help.
They talk about why bankruptcy is not always the worst-case scenario, why ignoring notices does not make them disappear, and how understanding the system can bring clarity before things spiral. Dr. Felecia asks the practical questions many listeners may be wondering: When should someone talk to an attorney? What actually happens in bankruptcy? What assets are protected? What happens to your credit score? And what should business owners do before financial pressure turns into chaos? This conversation is about shame, strategy, and learning how money works on both the upside and the downside.
