Description

Every investment is a high-stakes decision made without certainty. How do the world's most successful investors and business leaders navigate risk, tolerate failure, and stay agile when everything changes? And what can be learned from their insights?  Liz Thomas, SoFi's Head of Investment Strategy, sits down with influential leaders to unpack the pivotal decisions that shaped their careers and portfolios, and wade through the noise to get to the important part. Liz speaks with top voices in finance, business, academia, and media armed with knowledge to help listeners achieve their financial goals. Investing isn't just about picking stocks. It's about defining your relationship with risk, learning from failure, and staying resilient.
