Rarely do financial literacy courses involve a holistic approach.
The wealth retreat is unique in that it combines principles of wealth with insights into the energy of money, money and relationships, the exploration of financial beliefs and core values.
You’ll explore the essentials of income earning, saving and investing from a cooperative perspective. Discover how to get started and how to avoid costly mistakes.
Personal finance classes are complemented by discussions with a financial coach and the creation of a plan to bring you financial freedom while expressing your higher self and creating more time for your social contribution.
The program begins with an exploration of the psychology of money, what wealth is and an exploration of your values and what role financial independence plays in bringing your life into greater alignment.
