Real Change Starts with Women Making a Sh*t Ton of Money with Cindy Gallop, Founder of Make Love Not Porn

This week, I had the immense pleasure of talking with the exceptional Cindy Gallop the self-proclaimed Michael Bay of business. Cindy’s name is synonymous with trailblazing initiatives in advertising, TED talks, and championing women entrepreneurs through Make Love Not Porn.    In our deep dive, we traverse Cindy’s childhood memories in Asia, where frugality was the norm due to her family's circumstances, and how these early experiences shaped her views on money and investment and were critical to her journey toward financial independence.    Cindy shares the magic of how everything in her life was unplanned, yet it’s led her to be the powerhouse she is today. We explore her unexpected foray into advertising, thanks to a chance encounter, and how mastering the art of negotiation has never led her astray.    She candidly discusses the challenges she faced as an older female entrepreneur in a male-dominated tech world, detailing her relentless (and continuous) fight to secure funding for Make Love Not Porn amidst widespread discrimination.    As we explore Cindy's trajectory, you’ll hear valuable insights into her tenacity, resilience, and the critical importance of creating and maintaining safe online spaces for women and minorities. Tune in for an inspiring look at how Cindy's groundbreaking work and ceaseless advocacy for financial empowerment continue to leave a lasting impact on society.
