Invest for Better

Ladies, it’s our time to take control. Investing isn’t just about numbers—it’s also about influence and impact. By aligning your investments with your values, you can advocate for what you want, like sustainability and social justice. Join us this September for our Circle experience, designed to create a safe space for women to discuss money, build community, and grow wealth. Together, we’ll learn, share, and amplify our impact. There has never been a better time to take action. Sign up for more information: https://lnkd.in/dp4xQt3x #SustainableInvesting #ImpactInvesting #WomenInvesting #SocialJusticeInvesting

This is how women do things differently. We don’t just talk about change—we build it, together. Last night at our Reflect and Rise gathering, women from across our community celebrated the strides we made in 2024—and shared dreams of the impact we’ll create in 2025. The conversations weren’t about intimidating financial jargon. They were about heartfelt goals: driving climate solutions, advancing gender equity, and building thriving, equitable communities. Together, we explored innovative pathways to fuel these missions, from sustainable finance to women-led ventures and regenerative economies. Ready to join a space where collaboration sparks action? Whether you’re just starting or already on your journey, our events are designed to welcome you.

What rules are you ready to rewrite? At Invest for Better, we see it every day: women breaking free from the outdated idea that “finance is a man’s world.” Just like Elphaba in Wicked, they’re stepping into their power, ready to chart their own course. As Wicked lights up the box office, it’s clear: so many of us feel that fire inside—the drive to defy the status quo and rewrite the rules. And at Invest for Better, our community is doing just that. We’re not accepting that investing has to be all about financial returns. We’re making capital work for people and the planet—aligning money with the values we hold dear. Finance can be for women, by women. We’re rewriting the rules and building a better world together. If you’re feeling that spark but aren’t sure where to begin, come join us. You’ll find a community of women just like you—ready to make a difference, fired up about creating change, and learning how to take action together. Let’s make it happen.
