Today we’re diving into a conversation about one of the most important shifts happening in business right now. Did you know the fastest-growing segment of entrepreneurship and business ownership is actually women? And at the forefront of that movement is today’s guest, a true powerhouse whose story is as inspiring as it is game-changing.

Our guest is Suneera Madhani — a visionary entrepreneur, FinTech innovator, and champion for women in business. Suneera is the trailblazing founder of Worth, a revolutionary platform that uses patent-pending AI technology to help small businesses gain fair access to capital. It’s a bold, brilliant idea that’s leveling the playing field for entrepreneurs everywhere.

But her story didn’t start at the top. Before founding Worth, Suneera built Stax Payments from the ground up, transforming a simple idea into a multibillion-dollar company with over $140 million in recurring revenue. Along the way, she made history as one of the first female CEOs to build a unicorn — a rare feat in the male-dominated world of FinTech.

Her journey is one of resilience, grit, and relentless ambition. From selling credit card machines out of the trunk of a Volkswagen Beetle to being laughed out of boardrooms, she’s faced every challenge head-on and proved the doubters wrong time and again. Today, she’s not only a successful entrepreneur but also an angel investor, advisor to more than a dozen boards, and a sought-after speaker who’s shared her wisdom on some of the world’s biggest stages — from Meta and Harvard Business School to South by Southwest and beyond.

In this episode, we’ll unpack Suneera’s incredible rise, her mission to shatter ceilings for women in business, and the lessons she’s learned while bootstrapping billion-dollar ventures, navigating biases in leadership, and balancing the demands of entrepreneurship with family life.

It’s a masterclass in leadership, resilience, and what it takes to redefine an entire industry — and you’re going to want to hear every word.
