SHE TALKS: BOOTSTRAPPED BUDGETING
PRESENTED BY #BOSSBABESATX, POWERED BY CAPITAL ONE
7 TO 9 PM ON THURSDAY NOV. 15, 2018
@ CAPITAL ONE CAFE IN AUSTIN, TEXAS
$5 ENTRY

Produced by #bossbabesATX, SHE TALKS is an ongoing discussion-based personal and professional development series, tackling topics from finances to intersectional feminism.

On November 15 from 7 to 9 PM at the Capital One Café, we’re bringing you SHE TALKS: Bootstrapped Budgeting. In this session, we’ll open the conversation with a candid discussion about some of the practical and emotional barriers that keep us from making money moves as creatives, professionals and small-business owners. What we can do to better prepare ourselves for financial stability? We’ll also close the session with a budgeting exercise and some hands-on next steps.
