How Do Successful Changemakers Balance

Passion, Profit, and Purpose?

From Financial Stress...

  • Ever wondered how some of your friends have substantially increased their wealth while you’ve struggled to gain a financial footing?
  • It’s not because they work harder or are smarter, but rather because they have a more robust economic education.
  • Financial literacy is not taught to us in school, especially not in the arts…it’s almost exclusively learned experientially.
  • That’s why many changemakers find themselves deep into careers without much money to show for it…

To Financial Success...

With a strong foundation in financial information, you live your purpose driven life and profit from it.


You Will Learn (in Modules 1-8):

  • How impact-driven people can create additional income through purpose driven activities.
  • How to rest and rejuvenate throughout your career rather than banking on an aloof retirement
  • How to plan for and invest for sabbaticals vs. retirement
  • How values-driven money management can be both joyful and practical
  • How to face and fix debt issues that can plague your past and present
  • How to effectively use the essentials of investment vehicles
  • How to embody an abundant, yet approachable, modern money mindset...and much, much more!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the course take to complete?

This course is designed to take months of financial planning educational material and compress it into only the most important steps that service-driven professionals should take now. Some people will carry out every recommended step in the course and others will only carry out some.


Some people watch the course over seven day (one module per day), but then follow up on several of the action steps over the next several weeks to months. Others choose to do one module per week in order to have time to carry out the action steps within each module. The community and mastermind will help you as you move through the implementation phase.

What’s in the free training vs in the full course?

The free training taught you WHAT you need to know and WHY it’s important. But the full course will teach you HOW to implement those ideas into your daily life. The included online community and live mastermind will hold you accountable and provide the support you need to carry out your plan.

Do I need any previous financial education?

No, this course is designed so that a novice investor will be able to implement the ideas. Additionally, this course will challenge experienced investors with a different way of thinking about investment philosophy, fees, business, taxes, debt, impact, retirement, and more.

How is this course different from other financial literacy courses?
  • This class is tailored to meet the needs of service-driven professionals who have been overlooked, underestimated, and historically marginalized in finance.
  • Many financial literacy courses are created by industry insiders who have always been in the financial world and now want to share what they know. While this is helpful to many, they often lack empathy or understanding about what a service-oriented life looks like and the problems we face, thus their information isn’t practical or applicable for us. This course is taught by instructors who have faced and tackled the same problems that changemakers like you face and have developed innovative solutions specific to your needs. While trying to make a difference in the world and not having the resources to do so is frustrating, there are tactics and techniques that can support your journey.
  • On top of being an impact-driven 100% female-owned business, we have structured our firm to be as unbiased as possible (no conflicts of interest), meaning that we don’t sell financial products. This affects you because you know that the education provided is in your best interest, rather than as a result of getting compensation from another company through either affiliate links or commissions.
  • You get a full 60 minute 1-1 power planning session with a CFP® Professional at a very discounted price.
What are some key aspects of the full course material?
  • Realistic and simple methods for how to invest on a teacher salary
  • Updated insight on socially responsible investing and cryptocurrency
  • Practical options for student loan forgiveness and credit repair
  • Realistic and simple methods for how to legally start an impactful business in line with your values
  • The joyful alternative to traditional retirement designed for service-driven people

Is there live support throughout the course?
