Empowered Women



I'm a survivor of financial abuse and domestic violence.
Like so many women I support, hardship was my early companion.
Before age 20, I lost my father, my home, my money, and had become a victim of domestic abuse. Fortunately, during this critical period in my life, I discovered the classic book, Think and Grow Rich, by Napoleon Hill, whose teachings set my life on a new path of hope, faith, and inspiration.
After a long journey of sales jobs, college, and the search for a mentor, I joined American Express Financial Advisors and became a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional. The process of going from fearful victim to a confident woman with financial prosperity wasn’t easy. However, it gave me the foundation for my life’s work.
Helping women rise above difficult circumstances to thriving is my passion and why I created Smart Women’s Empowerment and why I’ve even made my personal coaching materials available for free in the Smart Women’s Academy.
