Guest: Anastasia Soloveva. Anastasia came up with the concept of Athena, an online educational platform about finances, to address the most underserved group on the financial market today: women. The modern woman is working more and living longer than ever before, yet she makes 20% less than her male counterpart, 76% more likely not to have a long-term financial plan or around 86% failing the financial literacy test. Anastasia's 15 years private banking experience allowed her to provide a holistic approach to finances and empower many women around the world with a financial plan without anxieties. We talk about empowering women about finance, and everything about NFTs, the trendy non-fungible tokens – as well as what the future holds.
