"Financial confidence isn't about knowing everythi "Financial confidence isn't about knowing everything. It's about knowing that you have every right to ask, to understand, and be part of the conversation." 💬

Our 2026 Savvy Change Maker Award honoree, Eden Lopez, is a Managing Director at RBC Wealth Management. Eden is a leader of the LSS group, which builds tailored portfolios for entrepreneurs, executives, and institutions.

Eden believes that when women have access to knowledge and guidance, they can do powerful things. Her advice to anyone who finds money talk intimidating is to give yourself permission to ask, find people you trust, and stay curious. The more we understand, the more we can advocate for ourselves and shape our own futures. 💜

Join us at the Savvy Ladies Annual Gala Benefit, The Power of Your Voice, as we celebrate Eden and all of our honorees.

This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we're shar This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we're sharing the story behind Savvy Ladies. 💜

Our founder, StacyFrancis , saw firsthand what happens when a woman has no control over her money. Her grandmother was trapped in a financially and physically abusive marriage and lost her life at the hands of her husband.

That loss changed Stacy's life. Over 25 years ago, she created Savvy Ladies so every woman could have the financial knowledge and agency her grandmother never had.

Today, we empower women with financial confidence through free financial education and the Savvy Ladies Free Financial Helpline, because no woman should have to navigate her finances alone.

One ask helped change the direction of Beth Pinske One ask helped change the direction of Beth Pinsker’s career.

When Beth decided to pursue her CFP® certification, she asked whether her journalism experience would count toward the requirements and asked her employer to help pay for the education.

Both answers were yes.

On the latest episode of The Power of the Ask, Beth shares how that moment helped her grow professionally, along with the lessons she’s learned about advocating for yourself, your family, and the people in your care.

Hay conversaciones que nos enseñaron a callar... y "dinero" was one of them. Pero here's the truth: tu dignidad financiera no debería depender de que traduzcas todo para tu mamá, tus tías, o tus hermanas.

Savvy Ladies just made it easier than ever to get financial help, en español. Their free helpline means your mamá can ask a question without you having to translate shame, confusion, or whatever her comadre told her.

Talleres. Clases. Consejos. Todo completamente gratis, y con el respeto que nuestras familias merecen.
Porque libertad financiera no es lujo, es necesidad.

Empieza hoy. La dignidad no se pide. Se reclama. 🔗 savvyladies.org
