Book description
Okay, y'all, I just finished this amazing audiobook, "Give Her Credit," and I need to tell you about it RIGHT NOW. Seriously, if you love stories about badass women changing the world, this is your new obsession. It's the true story of this incredible Women's Bank that opened in Denver in 1978, and let me tell you, it's everything.
Imagine the 1970s: feminism was blowing up, but in banking? Total boys' club. Women were treated like kids-no credit without a man cosigning, and your paycheck? Totally ignored as "unreliable." So, these women decided, "Screw the rules." They didn't just ask for a seat at the table; they built their own damn table, and then a whole bank. The story centers on folks like B. LaRae Orullian (the sharp bank officer), Carol Green (the whip-smart entrepreneur behind it all), and their crew: Judi Foster (investment genius), Edna Mosley (civil rights powerhouse), Mary Roebling (finance boss), Betty Freedman (socialite fundraiser), and Gail Schoettler (Denver justice champion). These weren't just coworkers-they were a revolution, one coffee meeting at a time.
What makes this audiobook so special? It's not just history; it's alive. The narrator brings these women to life in a way that feels like you're sitting with them, laughing over strategy, sweating through the fights. You hear the frustration of being dismissed, the sheer grit of building something from absolutely nothing when banks kept saying "no," and then the triumph when they finally did it. It's messy, it's real, it's got those "oh my god, they actually did that?!" moments that'll make you stand up and cheer.
And honestly? It's about time this story was told. For decades, these women's incredible work was buried, but this book (and this audiobook!) finally gives them the credit they earned. It's not just about banking-it's about how women, especially women of color and different backgrounds, came together to say, "Our futures are ours to control." You'll hear about the uphill battles, the creative solutions, and how they didn't just help women get loans-they created a whole new way of seeing value in people who'd been ignored for centuries.
I listened to it while walking the dog, and I kept stopping to just stare at the trees, thinking, "Wow, these women did this." It's inspiring, it's infuriating (in the good way, like "how did we let this happen?!"), and it's pure, uncut history you didn't know you needed. If you've ever felt like the system was stacked against you, or just want to be reminded of how much one group of determined women can change the world? This audiobook is your next listen. Seriously, go get it. You're going to feel fired up, empowered, and maybe just a little bit like you can start your own revolution too. It's not just a story-it's a call to action, and honestly? It's the best thing I've heard all year. Don't sleep on it.
