Alexa Von Tobel: Founding Partner At Inspired Capital & Founder of LearnVest
This week we chat with finance mogul, Alexa Von Tobel. Alexa von Tobel, CFP® is the founder and managing partner of Inspired Capital and the New York Times-Bestselling Author of Financially Fearless and Financially Forward. Founded in 2019, Inspired Capital is a $500M early-stage venture capital firm that invests across categories of innovation. Prior to Inspired Capital, Alexa founded LearnVest in 2008 with the goal of helping people make progress on their money. After raising nearly $75 million in venture capital, LearnVest was acquired by Northwestern Mutual in May 2015 in one of the biggest fintech acquisitions of the decade. She later assumed the role of Chief Innovation Officer through which she oversaw Northwestern Mutual’s venture arm. In this episode the pair trace back to the start of Alexa’s “work hard” approach to success, recalling her high school years as a student athlete and her psychology studies at Harvard University. Alexa breaks down how a positive attitude is the key to success and offers insight to achieving and maintaining a positive space. Conversations on building success with her husband, the road to finance in NYC, and mixing talent with passion to achieve dreams are just the beginning… Twentysomethings, get ready for an episode with the woman of the hour, Alexa Von Tobel!
