In this episode of Women of Wealth, we sit down with Brooke Page-Thompson, President of Velocity Advisory Group, for a powerful conversation on leadership, authenticity, and the financial strategies behind sustainable business growth.

Brooke shares her journey from navigating toxic work environments to stepping into leadership on her own terms—highlighting the importance of showing up authentically and the real cost of “splitting personalities” in the workplace.

We dive deep into what truly makes teams successful, including the critical role of psychological safety, trust across leadership levels, and the growing challenges of managing multi-generational workforces. Brooke also breaks down the subtle ways company culture can erode—and what leaders can do to rebuild it.

On the business side, Brooke offers a behind-the-scenes look at scaling a consulting firm, including the shift from cash-based thinking to accrual accounting, planning for long-term growth, and making smarter financial decisions as a company expands.

Whether you're a leader, entrepreneur, or building your career, this episode is packed with practical insights on creating stronger teams, making confident financial moves, and leading with clarity and intention.

• Why authenticity is a leadership advantage—not a buzzword
