Money is really FUN!
Especially when you know how to make your money work for you.
You are not alone! MANY women, just like you, are dealing with money challenges, and it’s no wonder! 84% of women say they are not getting the financial messages they need to feel confident and secure with choices in managing and growing their money. As a result, 90% of women are mostly or completely unprepared for retirement, 1 out of 3 women is living in or on the brink of poverty, and 3 out of 5 women can’t pay for their basic needs.
We are here to help you find your path to making your money work for you, and to provide you with the security and freedom your money is supposed to give you.
Do you dream of…
- owning a home?
- buying a new car?
- a better career?
- stopping the paycheck to paycheck lifestyle?

Turn your dreams into reality.
The #WomensMoney Conference is a full day with experts learning the simple financial steps to get you closer to a life that is free of money worries. Develop your simple plan to achieve your dreams and live a financially comfortable, worry-free life.
We are attracted to money not for what it is but for what it can do. Money provides a sense of security. It makes us feel safe. It provides opportunities for education, comfort and leisure. Money is one pathway to a better life for ourselves and those we love. When we begin to manage our money, we have the opportunity to dramatically impact the lives of ourselves and others in unimaginable ways. We have the power to change the world around us by supporting our dreams and goals.
