What does it really take to build wealth through discipline, strategy, and long-term thinking—while still creating meaningful impact?
In this episode your host Shama Bunton sits down with third-generation entrepreneur, C-level executive, and angel investor Dawn Dobras, whose career spans fashion retail, creative industries, and board leadership.
Dawn shares how early lessons in financial literacy, competitive drive, and strategic planning shaped her rise from an entry-level role in fashion retail to investing in and mentoring female and diverse founders.
This conversation isn’t about flashy wins. It’s about building financial security early, thinking like an operator, and using wealth as a tool to empower others and create lasting change.
