Episode Summary:
In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Jordan Cracknell, a powerhouse in the finance industry who’s on a mission to challenge gender norms and encourage more women to consider finance as a fulfilling and impactful career path.

With a background rooted in the World Trade Centre and a move from the fast-paced life of New York to London, Jordan brings a global perspective on what it takes to thrive in a traditionally male-dominated industry. She shares insights from her impressive career in finance, the key lessons she’s learned along the way, and how she’s using her platform to promote financial literacy—starting with the next generation.
