Welcome to Being Invested, the podcast where we explore investing from the inside. I’m not talking about insider information, but the personal stories of the people who make the markets. I’ve always been fascinated by how skilled investors have become who they are, how they’ve ridden the roller coasters and what it means to them. I’ll introduce you to innovators and leaders in all types of assets and markets – from blue chip stocks to venture capital, from timber to crypto, from violins to power plants.
I’ve been an investor and worked in the international capital markets for my whole career. I’ve had a front-row view of the women and men who move money to shape our world, and I’ve always been interested in who they are as human beings, the choices they’ve made, the qualities that make them good at what they do, and how they deal with setbacks.
This is not a podcast about where to invest your money. It’s a podcast for people who want to understand and thrive in the financial services industry – for those of you just thinking about entering it, for anyone a bit stuck in one corner and ready for a change , and for those of you, like me, who are just plain curious about who the people are behind the world’s financial markets. You’ll get to hear how investors have built and are building their careers and their businesses, and learn from them to invest for the outcomes you desire. And how to respond when the price tanks.
The mindset of being invested can enrich and elevate your journey, and I’d love to encourage more people into the sector who may not have considered it before.
Please join me for riveting conversations and new insights into the careers, life hacks and hard-won life lessons of investors across the globe.

I am thrilled to launch Being Invested with my first guest, Alex Ivanova. The aim of this podcast is to bring to life the people behind the markets. I'm so glad you have tuned in.
Alex is the perfect guest to start us off. Her journey to a life in a town along the Thames, managing $10bn in bond portfolios for Invesco, speaking five languages, starting a non-profit, and raising two children with her husband, all started in Yakutsk, in the far east of Russia. It took determination, focus, adaptation and an ability to spot an opportunity. Her favorite quote is "If people don't laugh at your dreams, your dreams are not big enough." I can imagine she has left a lot of people laughing as she's followed - and realized - her dreams. I hope you enjoy this absorbing conversation as much as I did!
