  • Fill Your Shoes
    Mar 21 2023

    Guest Jill Faherty Lloyd grew up athletic and a tomboy with an investment banker father who encouraged her to become a female banker. An “ADHD Survivor,” Jill’s father taught her early that her differences made her special; they were her “superpower” and would lead her to decades of success on Wall Street. Jill “leaped before” she, “thought,” was thrilled by risk, didn’t get stuck in the negatives, enjoyed the “game”, and she loved being the only woman in the room. Through her studied clear communication, Jill found ways to lead and to “grow things;” she learned to “fill her shoes” and to be powerful and smart in the boardroom. In her current role at UBS Private Wealth Management, Jill helps founders and their families navigate successful financial transitions. Jill uses her banking expertise and personal experience to help women normalize their power, ambition, and money, and their need to ask for help. To model this, Jill generously shares her Rolodex, encourages founders to seek out mentors, even surrogate moms, and dads, and recommends when you meet with a potential contact you close by asking how you can help them, even those more experienced than you.

A long-time champion of solving challenges from different perspectives, Christine founded Fathom, a company that reflects passion and creativity through Human-Centered Design and development, allowing her to assist businesses she loves while inspiring her employees to lead. While holding a unique perspective can cause discomfort, Christine benefits from not being boxed into a single perspective.
