Becoming Financially Savvy Take Control of Your Finances Today…For A More Abundant Tomorrow

    Last month I attended the National Achievers Congress event where Robert and Kim Kiyosak, of ‘Rich Dad, Poor Dad’ and ‘Rich Woman’ respectively, appeared with the rest of the Rich Dad advisors.  Listening to them share their stories and advice, especially Kim and Kathy Heasley, was inspiring! And to say it was brilliant is really an understatement! I left empowered by the education and on a mission to make my mark on the world as an entrepreneur!  

    I recently wrote an article on the rise of the entrepreneurial  nation, but as Kim Kiyosaki is hosting a Facebook chat event tonight at 8pm BST on her group ‘Rich Woman’, I thought I would turn my attention to women in business and why now is the time to get  going in your entrepreneurial endeavours!

    There are a number of new age terms describing women in business today all including ‘MomPreneurs; WomenPrenuers; and of course FemalePrenuers’.  I love all of them! They are uplifting and very cool!

    Nancy Clarke, CEO and Founder of WomensMedia, says The good news for women is that business now wants collaborative leadership, relationship skills, sharing of information, and win/win negotiation—skills that come easily to most women.’

    Kim Kiyosaki believes that women will be the instigators of the next economic boom, especially as the number micro-entrepreneurs – owners of small businesses that have fewer than five employees and a minimal start-up cost, – rises.  Here are some statistics for you to delve over – http://neweconomist.blogs.com/new_economist/2007/06/women_wealth.html

    In the meantime I have recorded an interview with one of my female entrepreneurial role models, Naomi Sesay, a successful  author of ‘The Human Upgrade’, speaker and entrepreneur of several businesses, including the ‘Billionaire Ladies Club’. She has worked with many influential names in the wealth creation and quantum physics arena, including Gill Fielding of ‘The Secret Millionaire’ fame. She  is a shining example of a debt free and financially independent woman.

    I met her right at the beginning of my entrepreneurial journey and she made such an impression on me I have just kept in-touch; which with the popular emergence of social media is an easy thing do in this day and age!  Not only that, but they always say if you want to be successful in what ever field you are in, follow someone who has already done it ordoing it, and Naomi  has definitely done it and continues to ’do it’, sharing her experience with, and mentoring, others.

    In this informative and content rich interview she talks about why it is great being a FemalePreneur; how she got started; the difference between male and female leadership; and her business the Billionaire Ladies Club! I hope you find it as inspiring as I did! And to Naomi – thank you once again for sharing your story with me and the readers of Becoming Financially Savvy. Please click the link below to listen.

    Interview with Naomi Sesay on Women in Business (approx 25 mins)

    The Billionaire Ladies Club (BLC) is a unique global network of phenomenal, influential and forward thinking women. Spiritually and compassionately enriched, the members of the Billionaire Ladies Club dedicate themselves to a base line of Financial Freedom with the view of creating Global Transformation in their lifetimes.

    BLC are holding an event on 24thto 25thJuly 2010 called ‘My Wealth, My Way’ where Naomi has kindly reduced tickets for Butterfly Wealth Creation readers, from £495 to £197 + bring a friend for free!!  To register for the event please click here!  I hope to see you there!

     The Human Upgrade by Naomi Sesay, is an exploration into internal vs external wealth and riches in the face of economic boom and bust.  You can purchased a copy from http://e-store.butterflywealthcreation.co.uk

    Her follow-up book ‘Women Who Believe  -  Do or Die’ is an extraordinary, amusing and simple step by step manual for the modern, fearless and, of course , FemalePreneur. It will be published early next year.

     A list of some of the many resources for the Woman in Business:

    To end, I leave you with another empowering quote from Nancy Clarke: Honour your talents and act like a woman—a smart woman—who knows how to jump over business obstacles, even in heels.”

    And a song for all women on a mission, irrelevant if they are in business or not!

    If you don’t like the song that is okay, I just hope you like the essence of it!! Personally, I love it! (As) I am a woman on a mission…..lahlahlah!  Enjoy!!

    What a value packed post. It's wonderful to see so many women stepping up and claiming their greatness now! Keep on spreading the love and inspiration :)

    Hi Lavinia,
    Reading through your post was quite inspiring, I am an enterprenuer on a very low scale now, and my ultimate desire is to grow to a higher scale someday, but the problem is that I don't know when that would be. Can you share any tips for starting a business with almost zero cash? Caroline.

  • Lavinia Osbourne

    Thank you Caroline! You are what the article refers to as a micro-entrepreneur….which is all good as it is all about starting and getting creative! When you have a lack of cash you have to get creative, which is never a bad thing! :)

  • Lavinia Osbourne

    And I will do! You too!
