About this Event
Many womxn entrepreneurs face blocks in their business stemming from money narratives that convince them to undercharge, to believe that they do not have the capability to handle the finances in their business, and inevitably become a financial avoidant. Join us for a free event: "What The Finances: What Women Entrepreneurs Need to Know About Money"
Why do we avoid our bookkeeping? Why does the thought of talking to investors create feelings of anxiety? Why do we undercharge? Why does the financial side of our business feel unmanageable? What do womxn entrepreneurs really need to know about money?
Many womxn entrepreneurs face blocks in their business that may stem from a money narrative that they may or may not be aware of. These unhelpful narratives convince womxn entrepreneurs to undercharge, overspend, to believe that they do not have the capability to handle the financial side of their business, and inevitably become a financial avoidant.
Join us in this online free event where we will explore what womxn entrepreneurs really need to know about money. We will discuss the 3 main financial growth blocks with womxn entrepreneurs, personal credit for business owners, and cash flow management strategies.
The event will take place on a Zoom Video Webinar. You will also be emailed our Money Map of Meaning Tool in advance of the session.
