ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
During the 11th Annual Financial Empowerment Conference Series, we introduced the theme KNOW Better. DO Better., with an emphasis on putting knowledge and power to work to improve your financial situation. This series is about stewardship education as well as encouraging implementation, so we are maintaining the KNOW Better. DO Better. theme, but for this 12th edition of the series we are shifting our emphasis to establishing a positive legacy by Building Wealth Across Generations. We are all going to leave a legacy, but to create a positive legacy requires us to be intentional about what we are doing while we're alive and making sure that we have our house in order to ease the burden on those we leave behind AND to put them in a position for greater success after we are gone. The financial legacy you leave behind is important, but your legacy consists of more than just money and possessions. Your legacy encompasses all that you have learned and gained throughout your lifetime, and sharing all of those things with the people you are close to ensures that your living has not been in vain, allowing the ones you care about to benefit from your life experiences. As we kickoff this 12th Annual Financial Empowerment Conference Series, we invite you to join us either in person or on virtually on our online platforms and include the people you love to be smarter about building wealth and to share in the critical conversations that will make a difference for years to come.

FEATURED SPEAKERS
Generational Wealth Building Panel
In discussions about wealth building, it often feels like certain groups are left out of the conversation. In keeping with our emphasis for this year's Financial Empowerment Conference Series, we have assembled a diverse panel of people who represent different age groups and experiences in the financial realm to have a candid conversation that will offer insight into building wealth and leaving a strong legacy for your loved ones. Our panelists have experience in banking, money management, debt elimination, investing, insurance, estate planning, and more. They also range in age from Millennials to the Silent Generation that preceded the Baby Boomers. The diversity of ages and experiences, should allow our panel to have thoughtful answers to the questions on the minds of our participants, no matter where they come from. And the panel will be moderated by a skilled conversationalist and podcasting host, who also has background in personal finance. We are looking forward to a dynamic discussion and encourage your questions, whether you will be with us in-person or tuning in virtually. Register today, and make plans to be a part of this life changing conversation.
