From Job Offers to Financial Freedom: Negotiation Strategies for Your Next Big Move
Negotiate your best offer - and know exactly what to do with it.
Join Giovanna (founder of Flow State Financials) and Gerta & Alex (cofounders of YourNegotiations.com) for a live Q&A on how to use salary negotiations as a stepping stone to long-term financial freedom.
Gerta’s and Alex’s company offers 1:1 consulting and resources to help people effectively negotiate their compensation. They’re ex-Instagram, ex-LinkedIn, trained by negotiators at Harvard and MIT, and their clients increase their compensation by an average of $90K over the initial offer. Giovanna helps professionals create clarity, confidence, and ease in their personal finances so they can live fully now while building long-term wealth.
This interactive session will cover:
The job negotiations journey from first interview to signed offer, and how to avoid costly mistakes along the way
How to position yourself for 5–6 figure increases without burning bridges
Smart financial moves to make immediately after landing a higher offer
How to align your career income with your bigger financial freedom goals
Live Q&A for all your negotiation and personal finance questions
Please note: This is a live-only virtual event. No recording will be shared afterward to respect attendees’ privacy and to encourage open, candid conversation.
Why this topic matters
Negotiating your compensation is one of the fastest ways to grow your income, but without a plan that money can slip away just as quickly. This session connects both sides: how to secure more at the table and how to turn that increase into less stress, more wealth, and real progress toward financial freedom.
Whether you’re preparing for a new job offer, navigating a career transition, or simply want to take more control over your financial future, you’ll leave with actionable strategies to earn more, grow your wealth, and make confident money decisions.
