Meet Your Host
Hi! I’m Maria, mom, teacher, personal finance blogger, and now summit host.
I’m a total money nerd. But I was completely overwhelmed and confused when I first wanted to start investing. The market seemed so confusing. Now I’m a comfortable DIY investor who understands what I’m invested in.
I’ve attended and participated in virtual summits in the past. And have always been disappointed with lack of the female representation, even though there are some incredibly smart, amazing female voices in the personal finance space.
Well that under-representation changes now. It’s time for Canadian women to have a safe place to learn from and with each other about money. And this year we are getting confident with our investments.

FAQ
It sure is! There are a lot of offerings out there for general personal finance, but this one has been created specifically for Canadian Women and their unique perspectives. When women learn from other women they can see what’s possible.
The summit runs from May 10 – 12, 2023.
Each video will be available for 48-hours. However, you can grab the VIP All Access Pass to get lifetime access to all of the videos, premium upgrades from our speakers, private podcast so you can listen to the presentations on the go without having to watch your screen, quarterly workshops, monthly check-ins and a safe space to connect with others throughout the year.

Absolutely not. The only person you’ll get emails from once you sign up is me, Maria. I will be sending you updates about the summit as well as a daily recap email with that day’s videos. Once the summit is over you may continue to hear from me from time to time, but you are welcome to unsubscribe at any time.
During each presentation the speakers will share with you how you can opt-in for their freebie. There will be a button for you to sign up for their email list (or visit their website) so that you only hear from speakers that really resonated with you. You will not be automatically added to everyone’s email list.
Learn more in our Privacy Policy.
To avoid tech glitches, save my sanity, and keep things easy for the speakers, the presentations are pre-recorded and will be released daily. I know how busy life can get so all of the presentations for that day will be released first thing in the morning (and you will get an email with all of the links).
New this year – there is a daily live recap/chat for anyone interested in attending.
No, we have a full schedule for this year and are no longer accepting speakers.
All presentations have closed captioning and transcripts available. Detailed notes of each presentation are available when you upgrade to the VIP All Access Pass once you register for the event.
Please reach out if there’s anything we can do to ensure you’re able to enjoy this event.
No problem! Shoot an email over to hello@womencanmoney.com and we’ll get back to you within 2 business days.
