It's the 20% you leave on the negotiation table because you'd rather be "liked" than be "difficult."
It's the brilliant idea you soften so someone else can claim it.
It's the guilt you feel when you invest in yourself instead of your family.
This is the hidden cost of being a woman with ambition. And it is costing you your fortune.
For too long, the rules of money have been written by others. In The Female Fortune, Dr. 'Tale Alimi draws on years of doctoral research and hundreds of conversations with high-achieving women to give you the definitive blueprint for dismantling the psychological and systemic barriers that hold you back from true wealth, power, and sovereignty.
π₯ WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

β How to Audit Your Shame Tax β Identify exactly where you are leaking money, confidence, and influence.

β How to Claim Your Female Fortune β Build a holistic prosperity measured not just in net worth, but in impact, legacy, and liberated joy.
π WHAT WOMEN ARE SAYING
"The Female Fortune powerfully reframes the hidden emotional and systemic costs women carry in pursuit of ambition and success. It is honest, deeply reflective, and offers practical language and tools for women to reclaim their agency, vision, value, and voice."
β Abosede George-Ogan, Founder, WILAN
"As an African girl child, you are often taught to support wealth creation, preserve wealth, or marry into wealthβbut not naturally see yourself as its primary architect or custodian. This reframing of ambition as a dividend to be claimed stayed with me long after reading."
β Ekemini Akpakpan, Executive Secretary, WISCAR
"The Female Fortune gave me a deeper understanding of how accomplished women are silently negotiating with self-doubt. The shame tax quietly conditions brilliant women to shrink themselves, apologise for ambition, and mistake survival for fulfilment."
β Ijeoma Thomas Odia, Editor, Guardian Woman
"The Female Fortune is about the Shame Tax: the invisible emotional, financial, and social surcharge women pay for wanting more. This book does not motivate; it diagnoses. Read it slowly. Then build from a different foundation."
