Disrupt Your Money: Liberation through Financial Education for Marginalized Business Owners
Disrupt Your Money is the unapologetic money podcast for marginalized small business owners who know that wealth building is a revolutionary act.
If you’ve ever wondered how to:
- Build a profitable, sustainable business that funds both today’s needs and tomorrow’s generational wealth
- Navigate systemic barriers while accessing the capital, resources, and opportunities you deserve
- Align your money moves with your values and community impact
- Protect your financial power in a system that was never designed for you to succeed
…you’re in the right place.
We believe economic equity is the key to reclaiming our financial power—and that dismantling and rebuilding our money systems is just as critical as making sales or filing taxes. Every week, we break down practical, shame-free strategies to help you grow, protect, and pass on wealth, so you can create a legacy that outlives you.
From pricing and profit strategies to money mindset and systemic change, we’ll talk about the real issues—without the jargon, judgment, or boring finance-bro vibes.
Whether we’re unpacking tax tips, demystifying investments, or calling out inequities in the financial system, our mission is simple: help you use your money to disrupt the status quo and build an equitable future.
Your business is more than income—it’s a tool for liberation. Let’s use it.
