ILLUMINATE DIGITAL®: Online Business Strategy for Social Impact Leaders & Changemakers

We sat down with the CEO and Founder of IndigeMoney (formerly Minimal Money) to talk about launching her online presence and creating a community for indigenous Oaxacans to learn about personal finance. We're super excited to share that after our conversation, she decided to change the name of the platform from Minimal Money to IndigeMoney in honor of indigenous people's financial empowerment!

IndigeMoney, created by the daughter of indigenous Oaxacan immigrants, is a platform that seeks to educate and inspire individuals to build wealth and save money by making financial education more accessible.

Having a business means giving tons of your time, energy, and value. Listen to hear about why you should be charging more than you think for the value you offer. And how when done with integrity in service of helping others, that doesn't make you a bad, selfish, dirty, or greedy person.

New Year's Resolutions can be kind of stupid because they tend to fade out quickly. But it's a good time of year to check in on your financial goals, do an assessment of your financial habits, beliefs, and mindsets in 2020, let go of what's not working, and double down on what's working in 2021.  In this episode we walk you through how to do this assessment, how to get crystal clarity on your financial goals and narrow them down, and how to prioritize and apply goal-refining strategies. 

We offer complimentary trainings like this one every month in our Private Community Building Wealth for Immigrant Families. It's a great place to connect with other immigrant families focused on building wealth and who want to do so in community while supporting others.
