Shake it Up, with Caroline Lewis

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Caroline Lewis. Caroline was checking all the boxes for her career: climbing the corporate ladder, leading big teams at Nike, and chasing the next promotion. Then, suddenly, she was off the ladder entirely. Caroline shares the moment her fast-moving, say-it-like-it-is style clashed with corporate politics, and how that unexpected exit became the launchpad for a more purpose-driven, powerful relationship with money. Caroline is the MP and founder of Rogue Women. She is also a Partner at Rogue Ventures and Kauffman Fellow. Before entering venture capital, she was Senior Director of Global Strategy and Operations at Nike where she managed a portfolio of strategic programs focused on consumer experience, digitization, and big data. Her love for start-ups comes from her early career experience as a founder of an e-commerce business and as a leader at a consumer health product company. Caroline holds an MBA from Portland State University and a B.S. in Behavioral Psychology from Davidson College where she played D1 Field Hockey.
