Most women are confident dealing with day-to-day money issues such as monthly budgets, credit card balances, and savings accounts, but tend to shy away from more complex issues, such as investments and retirement.  In fact, the Financial Literacy Foundation states that 52% of women find dealing with money stressful and overwhelming.  The pressure of women having lower incomes than men and their tendency to live longer, compounds the stress and anxiety that many women face about their money.


The good news is that this stress and worry can be eliminated by learning the truth about traditional financial planning and identifying the financial myths that destroy peace of mind. By becoming a Wealth Wise Woman © you will be able to stop worrying about your future by making prudent and wise financial choices as you journey through life’s stages.

MariJo Harding has a Masters Degree in Social Work (MSW) and is a national public speaker. As a Financial Advisor Coach she ministers to women by helping them create a true financial peace of mind based on scientific and empirical principles while aligning their true purpose of money with their spending and investing decisions.

Can you believe that more than 1.3 million new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed in the United States this year? Those are staggering statistics, but there is hope. Each of us can do something to save lives and help those already fighting this disease. That’s why I’ve decided to take action against cancer by supporting the American Cancer Society Relay For Life® event right here in my community.

Relay For Life is an overnight event that brings our community together to help support the American Cancer Society and its lifesaving mission to eliminate cancer as a major health problem. The Society works hard every day to prevent cancer and save lives by supporting groundbreaking research, affecting public policies that protect us from cancer, and educating people on how to prevent or detect cancer early. The Society helps people with cancer right here in our own community. And our efforts at Relay For Life can help the American Cancer Society to keep working toward a cancer-free future.

I want to invite you to show your support in the ongoing fight against cancer by joining us for this year’s event. Please click on the link below for more information, including details on the inspirational Survivors’ Lap and the moving Luminaria Ceremony. We hope to see you there! If you can’t join us, will you please visit the site and make a donation to support our efforts? Either way, you will make a real difference in the lives of people facing cancer and in the lives of the people who love them. Thank you!
