Memorable Moments
“Don’t settle for no answers. A lot of women come to us and say, ‘I'm just so frustrated my doctor's not helping me. I can't seem to get the right help.’ And you just you have to really demand for answers, and if you're not getting answers, you need to change doctors.”
“Women's Health is still very underfunded and I think female founders are still very underfunded.”
“Every twist and turn to your career, even if you feel like it's a sideways move, can really help you grow. I've always kind of let my career be this zigzag career.”

Like many sisters, Alison Nissen and Marcy Stoudt are similar in some ways and not alike in others. Alison graduated college and settled into a career in academia. Marcy, on the other hand, found success in the corporate world. As their mother entered mid-stage Alzheimer’s disease, they began to chat daily about their dream of launching their own business. They signed off each call with the chant: “It’s better together!” The more they talked, the more excited they became about the future.
They designed Revel Coach as an inspirational platform that mentors executives and entrepreneurs who wish to find career and family success. When you have a vivid vision, aligned action, and a growth mindset, it is possible to find harmony by celebrating every small and large success along the way. Find Joy everywhere! Today, Revel Coach mentors individuals in their next steps for their careers, volunteerism, and public service.
Memorable Moments
“Doing what you’re doing right now may be all the right things…but take a peek at where you would like to be in three years and start taking the steps to have an action plan for that vision.”
“We forget how much choice we have in how we think. Generally, our circumstances are not our stressors, but rather the negative thoughts and viewpoints we manifest out of insecurity.”
“Know where you’re pointing, then start breaking it down into tangible steps. You can start today…just because you don’t have the credentials, experience, wealth, or whatever the setback, doesn't mean you have to act that way. A lot of our work starts with the foundational mindset and helping her reframe how she thinks about where she’s headed."

Memorable Moments:
"Evolving from expert to thought leader empowers women to expand their influence, share their ideas, and lead with their stories for impactful change."
"Information cannot replace the value of perspective. What lessons and experiences can you pull from to impact and form a genuine connection with your audience?"
"Emotion is the catalyst for change. Your audience will trust you to help them achieve greatness when they can feel the possibilities that lie within them."
"The issue with “expertise” is that we are stuck in our heads, hyperfocused on sharing knowledge, instead of trusting in our hearts and bodies to form a true relationship with our audiences."

Vrinda Gupta is the CEO & Co-Founder of Sequin, the first debit card and banking in U.S. history designed by and for women and minorities. She is a globally recognized credit expert featured by Forbes, ABC7 News, and Fintech Magazine and has been named one of the top 10 women to watch in Fintech.
Vrinda helped launch the popular Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card at Visa Inc. But, when she applied for the card she helped create, she was rejected.
This inspired Vrinda to act. She quit her job at Visa to found Sequin, to recognize women's financial power and fight against the injustices that opposed it, including credit card debt and the Pink Tax.
Money is power - and this proud first-generation Indian immigrant is on a mission to design a world where women have more of both.
You can sign up for Sequin today completely fee-free at sequincard.com/shebelievedshecould.
Memorable Moments:
“The pink tax is a well-documented phenomenon where women are paying more for everyday products and services 42% of the time, which adds up to thousands of dollars a year, and hundreds of thousands a lifetime.”
“As women and minorities, we are not having conversations that are necessary to be successful in the financial world. We feel at fault and alone in our unknowingness, but most hardships have stemmed from a system that is steeped in the patriarchy.”
When fundraising, it’s important to find mission-driven investors, recognize that you don’t need to know wealthy people to recruit support, and never, ever under-sell yourself.
“It is so important to have accounts in your own name. Whether that’s a bank account or a credit card, it is important to set yourself up for success by knowing the steps.”
Every woman is a walking billion dollar opportunity because we have been continually underserved.

“70% of everybody using peer to peer crowdfunding are women due to their economic disadvantage. 70% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, and 80% of them are women. It’s shocking.”
“We are flocking toward crowdfunding platforms to help in everyday emergencies because a vast majority of women do not have an emergency savings fund.”
“AngeLink has built a platform that is focused on a community where women can depend on a safe and secure place to connect with their friends and loved ones in times of need...but also, the opportunity to change your life when starting a small business.”

Memorable Moments:
“When we deflect a compliment, it shows the sender how you feel about yourself and diminishes what that person has said. We may think we’re being modest or humble, but it serves no purpose other than to make both parties feel negatively.”
“Traditional gender roles valued submissiveness and modesty. History has shown that women who were too ambitious were viewed as threatening, and unfortunately, they paid the consequences.”
“Ask yourself why you should not show up as your most awesome self. Do you need therapy, do you have a low self esteem? Most of the time we need to do the internal work to find out why the doubt is there.”

“There is no company out there that can't close that confidence gap by a little bit by offering their time giving mentor advice. There is no woman who can't spend a little bit of her time with somebody.”
“I'm a big believer in the cold email, or the cold DM for the girls, I can't tell you how much happened with Être, because I sent one cold email every day to a woman I didn't know.”
