You already have everything you need to start investing. You just have to know how to use it.

Whether you're great at spotting trends, analyzing data, or just have a gut feeling when something is about to take off, those skills are valuable. The key is figuring out where to apply them.

We'll talk about:
💡How to turn what you already know into investment insights
💡Where to look for real opportunities
💡The best newsletters, book, and sources to stay ahead of trends

We'll kick things off with a casual networking session (grab a drink, introduce yourself, and vibe with other ambitious women). Then we'll get into real-world strategies for making sense of markets, spotting opportunities, and stacking wealth--all in a way that actually makes sense.

No experience needed. Just curiosity and a willingness to learn! Bring a friend and lets's make money make sense.

This event is being hosted by CultureWorks member, Sahara.
