In this episode of Investor Connect, Hall Martin speaks with Alicia Castillo Holley, the founder and general partner of Wealthing VC Club. Alicia shares her intriguing journey from being a scientist concerned about the limited impact of her lab research to becoming an entrepreneur and eventually a venture capitalist.  She discusses the inspiration behind her transition and the concept of ‘wealthing,’ which redefines traditional wealth-building models by emphasizing a dynamic, resource-positive approach rather than a static view of money and wealth. With years of experience managing multiple VC funds across different continents, Alicia underscores the importance of respecting money, making impactful investments, and maintaining a balance between optimism and humility in entrepreneurship and early-stage investing. She also sheds light on evaluating purpose-driven ventures for both impact and return, offering a structured yet flexible strategy for emerging investors, particularly in underserved markets.   Visit Wealthing VC Club at Reach out to at    and on   _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at:    Check out our other podcasts here:   For Investors check out:   For Startups check out:   For eGuides check out:   For upcoming Events, check out    For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group    Please , share, and leave a review.
