In this episode of Women of Wealth… we sit down with mentor and strategist Markey Read to unpack what it really takes for women solopreneurs to step into the CEO mindset, price for value, and build rich referral networks that attract clients instead of chasing them. Markey shares how to translate decades of experience into premium offers, simple “A-B-C + Custom” packaging, and leadership styles that fit who you are (not who you’re imitating). You’ll learn practical ways to delegate, communicate beyond DMs, and design a business that supports a life you actually love.
What You’ll Learn:
- Price for your worth: Why “staying affordable” doesn’t mean undercharging - and how to create accessible options without giving away the farm.
- CEO mindset for solopreneurs: Delegate micro-tasks, protect strategy time, and stop perfecting what never gets launched.
- From connections to referrals: The Power Partners & Rich Referrals approach to intentional, values-aligned networking.
- Own your experience: Count your 15–20+ years of professional expertise when you set pricing and positioning.
- Design your leadership style: Build offers, teams, and schedules around your strengths to prevent burnout.
- Real relationships > more noise: Use email and thoughtful outreach to deepen connection in a social-first world.
- Work–life harmony: Cultivate friendships outside of business and protect a personal life that isn’t ruled by someone else’s calendar.
Markey’s Frameworks & Offers Mentioned:
- Path to Prosperity: Know your people → message to their pain points → design real solutions → structure pricing → nurture referrals.
- Power Partners & Rich Referrals (course): Build intentional partner ecosystems so clients come to you.

What is Women of Wealth?
Women of Wealth is where generational wisdom meets entrepreneurial ambition.
Hosted by Hawley Woods Gray and Allie Ramo, the podcast brings two generations - and two distinct perspectives - to conversations about money, business, leadership, and building a life on your own terms.
Hawley brings the Gen X perspective, shaped by decades of experience in business, finance, leadership, and wealth building. Allie brings the Millennial perspective of a modern entrepreneur navigating growth, opportunity, and what success looks like for the next generation. Together, they prove that some of the best lessons happen when women at different stages of life learn from one another.
Each week, Hawley and Allie sit down with powerhouse founders, executives, entrepreneurs, and changemakers for candid conversations about the wins, challenges, pivots, and lessons behind their success.
Expect powerful stories, practical advice, different perspectives, and honest conversations about money, entrepreneurship, career, confidence, leadership, and creating lasting wealth.
Because wealth is about more than money. It’s about freedom, opportunity, impact, and creating a life on your own terms.
