Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2500296/fan_mail/new] From Net Worth to Self-Worth: Redefining Wealth and Ownership with Deanna Brown What if money isn’t the measure of your value? In this episode of Her Financial Frequency, we sit down with five-time Founder and CEO, investor, and media executive Deanna Brown, who brings more than 35 years of experience building and scaling global brands - and investing in early-stage companies - to this powerful conversation about worth, ownership, and identity. Deanna shares how growing up around financial tension shaped her early money mindset, how she tied her identity to earnings, and what finally shifted. After experiencing both financial misses and major windfalls, she realized something surprising: more money didn’t create more worth - and less money didn’t take it away. We explore: * Why money and self-worth get tangled * The shift from scarcity to expansion * The difference between earning income and building ownership * What “optionality” really means in wealth-building * Angel investing vs. venture capital, explained simply * Why alignment matters more than returns This conversation isn’t just about investing. It’s about identity, risk, ownership, and redefining what wealth actually means. Because your net worth is a number.  Your self-worth isn’t.
