This episode is introducing a new type of podcast episode - Minutes with Marcia. She explains that these episodes are shorter, around four to six minutes, to cater to the overwhelming amount of content that people are exposed to nowadays. This first installment is addressing the ability to do good while also doing well. She goes on to discuss how angel investing provides an opportunity to achieve both emotional and financial rewards. Marcia highlights the risks that come with angel investing but emphasizes that many angels invest in early-stage companies because they care about the big problems these companies are trying to solve. She shares examples of angel investments in companies working towards solving important issues like Alzheimer's disease and women's health.

Marcia explains that angel investments are not solely driven by financial gains, but also by the desire to make a positive impact in the world. She emphasizes the importance of diversifying investment portfolios to mitigate risks and continues to advocate for the support and funding of entrepreneurs who tirelessly work to solve challenging problems. The episode concludes with Marcia's call to action, encouraging listeners to consider becoming the change they want to see in the world by supporting startups in their own communities.
