Bola Sokunbi the founder and CEO of Clever Girl Finance, a personal finance platform for women. Bola is a Certified Financial Education Instructor (CFEI), finance expert, speaker, writer, podcaster and social media influencer. She’s also the author of her new book, Clever Girl Finance.

Bola and I met on a panel for the New York Women in Communications network here in New York. She’s built an incredibly successful business in a relatively short time period. Her business success becomes even more impressive when you learn that she’s a mother of twins.

Being a woman of color, she’s also in a small percentage of successful entrepreneurs and is raising the bar for us all.

Tune into this episode to hear:

• How Bola decided to leave her six-figure, stable job with newborn twins.

• Bola’s financial advice to empower women everywhere.

• Struggles Bola has endured as a female founder of color, and her advice to conquer these.
