Martin Luther King Jr did not write this.
We who are in our fifties, the movement begins
I hope you take the time to watch this video, it is my personal plea to all of us..
Today is the birthdate of Martin Luther King Jr. If ever there was a person that believes in his dream, “I have a dream” it was he.
If ever there was a man who could not, would not,take any other path toward equality it was him.
Today I am inspired to continue with my dream of teaching a million women how to make a million dollars by turning their passion into profit. No over night gimmicks, no make money fast shtick. This is a program that will challenge your beliefs, turn you upside down and inside out and give you the opportunity, finally,to live a truthful life.
Today, as I remember the great and never failing Martin Luther King Jr, I give thanks for his tenacity, his persistence, his commitment to his bigger picture and I am pressed to move on despite all the naysayers and non believers.
I too have adream…I wish for all women to be empowered, to be equal, to be included in the financial conversations around the world. Money is power, no doubt, let’s take it back…

The final frontier? Space or feminine financial freedom?
I think space exploration is really really cool. I’m old enough to remember the day the first space craft landed on the moon and Neil Armstrong uttered those words “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” I’m old enough to know that space exploration for some is now a yawn. Then there’s the other final frontier of course, Star Wars and all things related. But wait, if you ask me, and I’m glad you did, there is one other frontier that is really important, attainable even if most people don’t believe it to be true, and worth spending money on: feminine financial freedom. Seriously, think about that for a minute. Women make up more than 50% of the population, we are more likely to outlive our partners, (I know who wants to think about that) we make less money than men , partly because we’ve stayed home to care for children and/or parents and partly because that’s just the way it’s been, women don’t hold many of the upper level career positions, women have lower pension payments and women are not represented evenly in governments at any level…this all leads to the truth that, once a woman retires 54% will be living at the poverty level and the rate continues to climb the older we get…Yikes!Doesn’t that scare the s*** out of you? It does me. I’ve spent many years caring for my family, I stayed home with my children instead of getting paid at another job, I arranged my schedules so that my partner could always get to his job and if the kids had to be cared for it was me who took the time off. I had several small businesses after working at a bank because I needed the freedom, the result of which was no benefits, no pension and no emergency plan financially. I’m not willing to head quietly into my retirement years with that kind of knowledge…I’ve always been a trail blazer and an advocate for women and this is no exception My goal, to coach a million women who will make a million dollars and then assist women who cannot afford coaching through my charitable foundation so we’re helping millions more.
How will we do it? Turn your passion into profit: love to cook? Think Paula Dean. Love to decorate? Think Martha Stewart. Love to bake? Think Mrs. Fields. Love to talk? Think Oprah. Love to write? Think J.K. Rowling. Love to sing? Think Susan Boyle…. love current affairs? Think Arianna Huffington….The list is endless and so are the possibilities.
I’m starting a revolution ladies, I’m taking a stand for you, so that YOU don’t wake up at 2am scared to death of where you’ll be living in the future. I’m taking a stand for you so that you can stay in your comfy home surrounded by the photos of your kids, your favourite pieces of furniture, your garden full of flowers…I’m taking a stand for you ladies: let’s shatter the myth that women don’t know anything about finances, that men are in charge of us, that we can’t take care of ourselves….We can be financially free not financially fearful.
Come join us won’t you?
