As investors continue to search for yield in a constrained environment, attention is shifting toward undercapitalized segments with significant growth potential. Women-centric platforms, from professional sports to consumer brands, are no longer peripheral plays; they represent scalable, high-performing opportunities capable of delivering the returns that have become harder to capture in traditional asset classes.

That's according to high-net-worth investment advisor and 2026 GlobeSt. Woman of Influence Belinda G. Schwartz, executive chair of Herrick and co-chair of the Real Estate Department. Herrick is a full-service commercial real estate law firm based in NYC. Schwartz sat down with us to talk about the award, the state of the industry and how she is strategically advising clients today.

In the podcast, you'll also hear:

-How the current market challenges have changed the investment conversation for high-net worth clients.
-The real estate opportunities in specialty investments, like women's sports and women's brands.
-How law firm leadership is evolving and why diversity remains an important factor in advising clients.
