For decades, finance has been dictated by straight, cis-gendered, white males. The need for something radically different is what pushed Regina and Angela, founders of Women’s Personal Finance, to begin their online community for women and non-binary identifying folks.
WPF originated from female friendship and has grown into a force of personal finance education, encouragement, and inclusion.
WPF has been featured in The New York Times and Forbes and won the 2021 Plutus Award for Best Financial Content for Women.
In this episode, we chat about:
The power of female friendship + close-knit community during isolating experiences or environmental barriers
Why Women’s Personal Finance focuses on a group of people instead of a personality or person
Centering women and non-binary folks in the personal finance conversation
How divorce or separation is an act of bravery + more

GUEST BIO:
The story of how WPF began dates back to 2018, when Angela wrote the blog post ‘Meet the Women of the Financial Independence Movement‘. That post kicked off the beginning of a real place where women could connect and talk about money and all other things important to them and soon after the post was published, Angela created the Women’s Personal Finance Facebook community.
Later that year, Regina wrote a guest post on Angela’s blog about her newly coined term PrepperFi. Angela and Regina cemented their friendship over the course of Regina’s son developing cancer and entering into treatment. Sometimes, great things come out of hardships. The Facebook community has now grown to over 70k members and is known to be one of the best, most supportive places on the internet.
With WPF’s expanded community and mission supporters, they offer a premium community, WPF Insiders, articles about money written by other women, access to money experts, resources about all things finances, a super neat swag shop, and more.
