Founders & Professional Women: The Wealth Conversation
We're bringing founders and professional women together for a real conversation about building wealth — including how people actually got started, what they had to learn along the way, and the decisions that helped them become more confident with their money.
We often don't see women talking openly about building wealth with friends, let alone telling a larger group of women about their investment strategy, the mistakes they've made, or the things they didn't know at the beginning. We're here to change that.
You don't need to be an experienced investor to belong in this conversation. You might already own a business, invest regularly, be thinking more seriously about financial independence, or simply want to understand what options are available to you. The goal is to make these conversations more practical, honest and accessible — and help women turn knowledge into action.
We have four different experts speaking from very different angles on wealth creation:
Kelley, a professional wealth manager, breaks down tax and investment strategy for anyone juggling multiple business entities. She will also speak to professional women about how to grow their wealth using a simple investment framework — including where to start and how to think about the decisions in front of you.
Marissa, a serial entrepreneur who's gone from tech to wellness, shares what actually worked, what didn't, and what she learned through different stages of building businesses and wealth.
Renee, who went from founder to non-profit, makes the case for why giving belongs in the wealth conversation, not off to the side — and how purpose, impact and wealth can coexist.
Finally, a legal expert walks through the legal side of building wealth, both personal and business, and some of the things women should understand as their assets, businesses and responsibilities grow.
This won't be a conversation about having everything figured out. We'll talk about confidence, risk, career and life transitions, financial independence, mistakes, opportunities and the questions women are often expected to already know the answers to.
Food and drinks are covered. And just by showing up, you're entered to win door prizes from a lineup of women-owned businesses we love — House of Lagree, a wellness studio, a $250 bottle of wine courtesy of our partner YWCA, and more.
This is HGIC's first event, and we want you to join us. We're building toward something bigger — a community and platform for women growing their wealth together, in real life.
Come leave the room with a clearer understanding of your options, practical ideas you can apply to your own life, and the start of a community to build alongside.
