My fellow Ella's: I am putting together an event for a women's group at my company with the focus on finance. Women often defer financial decisions and investment decisions to the men in their lives, and it is very important to me personally to educate women and empower them to make these decisions for themselves. The event will be held in Chicago and I am looking for financial experts, or anyone related to the financial industry, who can come speak at our event. If you have any recommendations, please let me know! And if you want to attend, I can share more info 😄 Thank you!!

I hosted (and paid) Bola Sokunbi from Clever Girl Finance to speak to the women’s group I run at my company and she was fantastic. Highly recommended
Thank you for the responses! I’m coordinating this with a few other women and one of them has lined up a financial advisor who focuses exclusively on helping women. So we are set for now but if anything changes, I’ll be back in touch!
Hi! If you are still looking I have a client that might be interested.
Hi Lauren!
I’m a financial advisor and I actually popped onto Ella today to ask about any leads on speaking engagements! I’m open to coming to Chicago.
Do you have some time to chat this week?
