​Welcome to Money Talks

​5 live & virtual personal finance discussions designed to help women build money confidence — together.

​Hi, I am Arpita — and I volunteer-started this initiative because I didn’t grow up talking about money — and most women I know didn’t either. From cultural norms to feeling like we need to have it all figured out already, money can be a confusing (and often an isolating) topic. If you’ve ever felt behind, unsure, or just tired of pretending to have it all figured out — welcome. This space is for you.

​This series is:

• ​For women who want to understand money on their own terms

• ​Rooted in community, not judgment

• ​Action-oriented — with worksheets, case studies, and real talk

• ​Free and educational initiative for friends & family
