Activate Your Money

Great Returns
Grounded in Values

Activate Your Money: Invest to Grow Your Wealth and Build a Better World goes beyond basic financial literacy to provide the details you need to become a confident investor. Combining stories of women’s personal finance journeys along with practical and actionable investment strategies, this book will give you the knowledge you need to take control of your money and make great returns by investing in the communities, people, and companies that match your values.

Where we choose to put our money matters. Whether it’s parked in a savings account at a big bank or sits in the stock market, what your money is funding may shock you—and not paying attention isn’t an option anymore.

The Activate Your Money website serves as a companion to the book. It contains the resources, downloadable tools, and training you need to move from knowledge to action. We point you to communities of women who are finding joy in investing. Collectively, we have the power to change the world.
