Show Notes
<p>In this episode of Sat Chats, we meet #86 Katie — a former real estate finance pro turned startup advisor, with a track record in angel investing and a knack for chasing “the next big thing.” From losing money in real estate and film to getting burned by Celsius, Katie’s journey is one of trial, grit, and learning the hard way.</p>
<p>Katie first bought Bitcoin back in 2017 at $4,000 a coin, alongside Ethereum. She hasn’t sold any of it. Despite massive volatility and hard lessons, Bitcoin stood out. And today? She’s back — stacking sats, self-custody curious, and ready to reengage.</p>
<p>We cover:</p>
<p>✅ How women approach risk and investing differently</p>
<p>✅ Losing her Bitcoin in the Celsius bankruptcy</p>
<p>✅ The difference between Bitcoin and meme coins</p>
