May 23, 2025

What happens when women in finance stop waiting for permission and start telling their stories? In this episode, Leslie Lipscomb, Senior Vice President at FIG, sits down with Jessica Schloemp, Director of Operations at FIG, to share the heart behind  Financial Trendsetters 2, a collaborative book written by 12 women who are redefining what it means to lead in financial services.

They’ll give us a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of this book, all while discussing imposter syndrome, accountability tribes, and why women’s stories must be heard, especially in male-dominated industries. This conversation is about more than a book release- it’s about vulnerability, courage, connection, and lifting others as you rise. Plus, all proceeds from the book support an awesome cause that you’ll want to hear more about!

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
