✨ Just spent an amazing evening at The Pledgettes Financial Friends event at Cohesion Brewery! Thank you Jenn Uhen, CFEI® Ashley D. and Stephanie Vail! Talking about wealth, money, and business with an incredible group of women was beyond inspiring. Let’s be real—building a thriving coaching business isn’t just about hard work or passion; it’s about being comfortable talking openly about money. Why? Because when we embrace conversations around wealth, it’s not only empowering but also essential to expanding our impact. 🌍 When we let go of the awkwardness and approach money with confidence, we can create stronger connections, help more people, and (yes!) build a business that not only pays the bills but also funds our dreams. Here’s the thing: If you’re a wellness coach, life coach, or expert in your field, your wealth mindset directly affects the relationships you build and the people you can serve. Are you ready to shift how you think about money? 💸 What’s one thing you wish felt easier or more natural when it comes to talking about wealth in your business? Drop a comment below—I’d love to hear!

“You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you.” — Maya Angelou I got to ask some hard-hitting, introspective questions of a founder in a mini retreat we did on Saturday. She was willing to be vulnerable about her vision for the future of her company and the areas where she may struggle along the way. We made some simple marketing refinements and streamlined some invoicing processes, but we wrapped the session with a list of what success looks like moving forward. Interestingly, she did not write money down as a goal. She wrote a list of gratitude in present tense of what she hoped for moving forward. It was so beautiful and thoughtful I was like “okay yeah I want all that too.” I get it! Being a founder is lonely. You HAVE to lean on others that are willing to recognize this and lift you up in ways you might not even know you need. And most importantly, you have to consider the community you have to support your pursuits and passions. That’s why I’m a member of The Pledgettes, where I learned *your financial journey is unique to you, your values, your goals, and the life you want to lead.* Money is just there to support that. Every goal is a financial goal and The Pledgettes offers the clarity, confidence, and support necessary to live your healthy, wealthy life. If you are looking for a community that has honest and open conversations about money, check out The Pledgettes and connect with founder Jenn Uhen, CFEI®. We have social events like Financial Friends, Book Club, Podcast Club, Movie Club, and Investing Club. And we have an event TODAY! Location: Cohesion Brewery (3851 Steele Street #Unit 1388 Denver, CO 80205) Date/Time: Monday, October 28th (6-8pm) RSVP Link in the comments.

I’m going to upset people by saying this, but it needs to be said. This is a choice. This is a choice made every day by executives at American companies. It is not an accident. And these executives could - today or any day - make a different choice and pay women the same amount that they pay men for the same work. Women can’t solve it by leaning in any harder. I think we’ve proven that, haven’t we? This has to end. #wagegap #workingwomen
