Sarah Dusek is a pioneering entrepreneur, investor, and author of the Amazon 5.0-rated book Thinking Bigger: A Pitch-Deck Formula for Women Who Want to Change the World. In this episode, we explore female entrepreneurs' challenges and triumphs, particularly those related to securing funding and scaling businesses.

Here are three key takeaways that I believe will resonate with many of you:

1) Understanding the Funding Gap: Sarah highlights a staggering statistic: fewer than 30 women have publicly taken their companies on leading stock exchanges. This is primarily due to the significant funding gap for female-founded businesses, with only 2% of venture capital funds going to women annually. This episode highlights the importance of bridging this gap and empowering women entrepreneurs to seek the capital they need to grow their businesses.

2) The Importance of Thinking Bigger: One of Sarah's most powerful messages is the need for women entrepreneurs to think beyond conventional limits. Many women pitch their businesses with modest revenue goals, often aiming for just a million dollars in a few years. Sarah challenges this mindset, urging entrepreneurs to envision their businesses as potential $100 million ventures. By thinking bigger, we can attract the right investors and create scalable businesses that truly make an impact.

3) Navigating the Investment Landscape: Sarah shares her journey of raising capital and the lessons learned. She emphasizes the importance of understanding the nuances of the investment world, including what investors are looking for and how to communicate the value of your business effectively. This episode serves as a roadmap for female founders, providing insights into how to present their businesses as investable opportunities.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, investor, or simply someone interested in the dynamics of business growth, this episode has something valuable for everyone.
