Investing with Your Values - Culture and Creativity with Candice Cook Simmons, The Cook Law Group and CSO at Radical Media

This week on Getting Rich Together, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the amazing Candice Cook Simmons. Let me tell you, this woman is a powerhouse of inspiration when it comes to building wealth on your own terms. In this episode, Candice shares her unique approach to building wealth — one that's all about aligning your money with your values and passions. From Broadway shows to climate-resilient housing in Ghana, we explore how investing in culture and creativity can lead to amazing returns, both financially and personally.  What I love most about Candice's perspective is how she encourages us to think beyond traditional investment vehicles. She reminds us that there's money to be made in amplifying voices and ideas that might be overlooked by others. It's about finding that sweet spot where your investments not only grow your wealth but also contribute to a world you want to see.  That’s the true power of investing with your values.      Key Topics: It takes a village to raise money-savvy kids Candice’s first jobs and money-making ventures Taking ownership of her financial decisionmaking in grad school The unfortunate reality of generational wealth and luxury of choice The great influence our networks and peer groups have on our financial choices Choosing financial stability over a career aligned with passions and interests What’s driving Candice’s decisions around investments today Creating a financial safety net with the Cook Law Group Investing with your values and investing in culture Timing investments and knowing when to say no How often Candice is looking at deal flow Leaving a legacy of equitable opportunity and unapologetic joy for all Connect with Rebecca online:   Instagram: @candicesc1of1 Website: https://www.candicecook.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/candice-s-cook-7454177/ Find more from Syama Bunten: Instagram: @syama.co, @gettingrichpod Website: https://scalingretail.com/, https://syamabunten.com/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/scalingretailconsulting
