When you step into Woven, you're not just joining another community; you're investing in a movement. Here, you become part of something bigger—supporting financial empowerment and advocacy for women and nonbinary individuals. Together, we’re redefining financial narratives in an inclusive and safe space.
I want to express thanks to Angela and Regina for creating WPF and Woven and for the admins & mods for taking time to keep these communities going. Thank you! It is has been an invaluable resource to me. I appreciate it! -Ericka
I wish I had known about this group a few years ago when I was dealing with a very expensive, protracted divorce from an abusive husband.
But I have learned so much since joining this group and chime in whenever I can to help other women during their time of need.
Here for the support and encouragement! -Hetal
I need to credit the Women's Personal Finance group for introducing me to some concepts I hadn't fully considered--coast FI, barista FI, etc. My husband and I met with an advisor for one hour last week (flat fee, fiduciary CFP), and she reassured us that our aggressive debt payoff early in our marriage and investing 30%+ of our incomes for the last 10+ years or so has set us up very well.
We are doing so well, in fact, that we agreed we could reduce our investments via payroll deduction to start saving up cash for my eventual exit from the full-time workforce. I explained the "grade me, grade me" Lisa Simpson teacher strike episode scene and she gave us an A+!
It's pretty incredible to be at this point, just shy of age 43. I don't really have anyone I can share this with in real life or even in the WPF Facebook group because I know too many people in that group. - Anonymous Member

In the vast expanse of personal finance Twitter, we – Regina and Angela – found kindred spirits in each other. Embarking on our blogging journeys at the same time, our bond deepened not just through shared financial insights, interests in sustainability, and inclusive feminism, but through the heartfelt support Angela offered Regina during her son's cancer battle.
Though we've achieved significant milestones, we still feel like everyday people. By our mid-thirties, each of us reached a net worth of over a million dollars. Beyond our personal financial successes, we've been dedicated to giving back. We've proudly served on nonprofit boards, making tangible impacts in our respective communities. Our belief in servant leadership underpins everything we do, emphasizing the importance of serving others and leading by example.
Both of us have been independently honored with the 'Community Builder Award' from the Plutus Foundation, and together, our initiative, WPF, secured the 'Best Personal Finance Content for Women' accolade. Additionally, Money Magazine celebrated our efforts, including us in their 50 'Changemakers' as part of their 50th anniversary celebration.
But at the heart of it all is our shared mission: to make finance approachable and human. We stand firm in the belief that you don't need gurus; you need genuine, trusted allies on this journey. That's the essence of WPF – a nurturing space of trust, empowerment, and shared financial growth.
