Codie Sanchez started her career as a journalist covering human trafficking, and was confronted with extreme violence and the worst of humanity on a daily basis. Realising that she didn’t want to be someone who, in her own words, had to ‘fight for a living’ she decided to take a hard pivot into finance. Since entering the world of finance, Codie became partner at private equity firm EEC, and built First Trust’s $1 billion+ AUM Latin America business. She’s also the co-founder of ‘Unconventional Acquisitions’ and the founder of ‘Contrarian Thinking’ who have a mission to bring more people into financial freedom. In the conversation we talk about how, just like Codie’s career, human beings don’t have linear paths, we talk about the question of whether you need periods of struggle in order to achieve wealth, happiness and success. As well as advice for women in the workplace and leadership and we finish by covering a handful of truths that will make you more money than any business degree. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. 00:00 Introducing Codie Sanchez 01:33 How would you describe what you do? 06:34 Switching to finance from journalism 10:48 How to choose your career path 19:14 Advice for women in the workplace 21:55 Corporate culture and hustle 30:58 Do you need to struggle to succeed? 41:25 Finding purpose 52:37 Uprooting your life for a relationship 56:14 Relentlessness 58:40 The tiara complex 01:03:01 The power of culture and leadership 01:08:14 If no-one thinks you’re crazy you’re too late 01:17:30 Give value and expect nothing 01:19:53 Earn before you invest 01:22:24 Choosing your business path 01:24:36 Advice to your younger self Season 6 Episode 5 🔗 CONNECT WITH CODIE 🎥 YouTube Channel - @CodieSanchezCT 💻 Website - https://www.codiesanchez.com 📸 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/codiesanchez/ 🐦 Twitter - https://twitter.com/codie_sanchez 👥 Linkedin - https://twitter.com/codie_sanchez 🔗 CONNECT WITH ALI 📲 Join My Telegram Community - https://t.me/+bH5gLHty5kBiOGZk 🎥 YouTube Channel - @aliabdaal 🐦 Twitter - https://twitter.com/aliabdaal 📸 Instagram - https://instagram.com/aliabdaal 💻 Website - https://aliabdaal.com 👥 Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ali-abdaal/ 📚 RESOURCES MENTIONED Deep Dive episode with Daniel Priestley - https://youtu.be/VwLqwcjJwRo Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead by Sheryl Sandberg - https://geni.us/ucYq4v The Mission, the Men, and Me: Lessons from a Former Delta Force Commander by Pete Blaber - https://geni.us/8rMhit Die with Zero by Bill Perkins - https://geni.us/jVPWCTb 📄SHOW NOTES & TRANSCRIPT Visit the website for the transcript and highlights from the conversation - https://aliabdaal.com/podcast/ 🎙 ABOUT THE PODCAST Deep Dive is the podcast that delves into the minds of entrepreneurs, creators and other inspiring people to uncover the philosophies, strategies and tools that help us live happier, healthier and more productive lives.
