The Unicorns Podcast connects you to some of the best and brightest founders, CEOs, executives, business owners, innovators, entrepreneurs and inspiring leaders who make things happen and inspire others.

Host Justin Kelly, former broadcast journalist and PR veteran, chats with leaders from across Australia and internationally on business strategy; what it takes to build a successful company; how to overcome challenges, and advice for those on a similar journey.

In this episode, Justin interviews Sonya Williams, co-founder and co-CEO of Sharesies.

Since its launch in 2017, Sharesies has grown strongly, expanding from New Zealand to Australia, achieving B-corp status, and introducing great features like AI-powered search tools. With its three co-CEO leadership model and commitment to financial education, Sharesies is much more than just an investment platform.

In this episode, Justin dives into the Sharesies backstory, exploring the challenges and triumphs of building a fintech startup, the unique perspective of female leadership in a male-dominated industry, and the delicate balance of profitability and social responsibility. There are also insights into the future of investing and how Sharesies is preparing for the evolving financial landscape.
