Personal Finance for Female Founders & Freelancers
Event Description:
Personal finance can feel overwhelming when you're navigating the world of freelancing, self-employment, or founding a company.

So, how do you ensure you're setting aside enough for a secure and comfortable financial future while balancing the unpredictability of your income?
In this interactive workshop, we’ll dive into practical financial strategies specifically designed for freelancers, founders, and solopreneurs. From understanding retirement savings vehicles to budgeting with fluctuating income, this session will give you the tools to take control of your financial future.

Something to note:
This October (2024) marks the 50th anniversary of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974, which protected women's right to access to credit. Before the law, women needed their husbands, fathers or brothers to co-sign for a loan or credit card.
Let's keep making progress for women in regards to personal finance, access to capital, and financial empowerment!
