Join my free 3-day masterclass, The Consistent Cash Method, starting May 19th-21st at 11 am CST if you're a high-performing woman who wants to have more consistent, higher cash months in your business https://link.shaminataylor.com/consistent-cash-method    In this episode rerun of the Unapologetically Rich Show, Shamina Taylor sits down with the remarkable Natalie Dawson. CEO, empire builder, author, and one of the most quietly powerful women in business today.   At just 32 years old, Natalie runs a company of 350 people, is launching a private equity fund, and has helped 10x her family's net worth from a $155 million exit to well over $500 million.   And she did it all while navigating one of the most misunderstood and underrepresented experiences in business. Being the woman behind and beside a wildly successful man, while building her own undeniable legacy at the same time.   This conversation is raw, real, and full of the kind of truth most people are too afraid to say out loud. Natalie shares how she dropped out of college at 21 with $3,500 in her bank account and a borrowed BMW to go all in on a business nobody believed in.   How she fell in love with a man twice her age and spent years fighting the internal battle of not wanting her success to be attributed to him. And how she ultimately chose alignment over approval and built something extraordinary anyway.   Shamina and Natalie go deep on what it really means to be unapologetically rich. The daily habits, the non-negotiables, the ruthless standards around who gets access to your energy, and why the work you do on yourself will always be the highest return investment you ever make.   In this episode you will discover: How Natalie went from $3,500 and a dropped out of college to running a 350 person company in six years Why she fell in love with a man twice her age and the identity battle she had to fight to own her success fully The daily team meeting that Natalie says is the heartbeat of her entire business and why she will never stop doing it How she uses AI and ChatGPT as her personal mentor and learning tool and exactly how you can do the same Why women are about to hold 30 trillion dollars in wealth by 2030 and what Natalie is doing to make sure women know what to do with it Her definition of rich and why it has nothing to do with a number The non-negotiable standards she holds for the people in her inner circle and why she has ruthlessly cut anyone who does not support her vision What she learned watching her husband hit his biggest financial goal and then feel completely lost and what it taught her about purpose over money Why confidence is not something you are born with but something you build by being honest about what you want and aligning your actions to match   If you have ever felt like you had to choose between being taken seriously and being fully yourself. If you have ever worried that your success would be attributed to someone else. If you have ever played smaller than you should because the people around you were not ready for your next level.
