Having a business is not goign to give you financial freedom unless... 

In this powerful and truth-telling episode, Alejandra Rojas is joined by investing educator Tess Waresmith to dismantle one of the biggest myths in entrepreneurship: that reinvesting in your business is enough to build wealth. Together, they unpack the marketing traps that keep women of color entrepreneurs stuck in a cycle of constant reinvestment and delayed security. This is a heart-centered, trauma-informed conversation about reclaiming your power, creating wealth on your own terms, and investing for real—even when your income is inconsistent.

This isn’t about Wall Street jargon or needing six figures to get started. It’s about shifting your mindset, building new financial habits, and learning how to secure your future now—not seven years from now. If you’ve ever felt like investing was “not for you,” this episode is your invitation to reclaim it.
