Disrupt Norwich

Who is the Iconic Wealth Money Club for? It's for you if you are a woman who has broken the glass ceilings, made all the sacrifices, brought in the salary or the business income that your Grandmother could only dream of......but you're not maximising that money by getting it working for you. Perhaps you've not got the investment or specialist financial knowledge. Perhaps you don't know who to trust. Maybe you've had your fingers burnt before and have a hesitation to rebuild your wealth. Or maybe you've been meaning to get round to it and just never found (or made!) the time to do so. Maybe you think you've left it too late to make a difference. Kylie Anderson and I opened the doors to the Money Club this month to provide women like you to get exactly what you need to be able to grow your money confidence, your wealth and your future financial independence. Without jargon. Without judgement. and WITH some enjoyment too!! In person and online, financial insights, trainings, business strategy for those in or thinking about business, money and investing confidence, experts from the financial, legal.and property worlds sharing their knowledge...the list goes on - whatever YOUR focus, we've got you. Oh, and if yesterday's inaugural Money Club lunch is anything to go by, there will be some fabulous food and conversation along the way too! If you think the Iconic Wealth Money Club could be for you, come and join us while we are still offering founders rates. Send me a message or let me know in the comments and I'll get the details over.

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐈 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐇𝐑 🌟 I returned to work after my maternity leave a completely different person. I still wanted a career, but my outlook had changed ✨ I turned 40 in 2021 and knew it was time to put my ‘big girl pants’ on and get out there and offer my services to businesses that need my help to look at their people strategies differently. Our personal journeys make us who we are, and I would not have changed a thing, as it has all lead me along the path to where I am today 💙 Drop me a message if you’d like to ask any questions!
