I’ll never forget reading an Allianz Study on women that came out after the financial crisis of 2008.
It made an exciting discovery. A new demographic was emerging—Women of Influence. These women aren’t necessarily high earners, or even gainfully employed, though many are.
What sets them apart is how financially savvy they are. In other words, as Allianz reports, this new breed is “more confident in their ability to spend, save, and invest wisely than the average woman.”
And what’s really exciting—These Women of Influence are becoming global change makers, claiming their power, owning their greatness, making an impact.
I see it as inevitable. Once a woman becomes financially secure, her motivation shifts from making more money to leaving a legacy.
She starts looking for opportunities to gain more influence and give back to others in ways that fill her with meaning and pleasure, while at the same time imbuing her with joy, fulfillment and meaning.
These Women of Influence offer our greatest hope for healing the planet.
I believe, because you’re reading this, you are meant to be one of these women—if you aren’t already.
As a Woman of Influence, you are in the best possible position to leave a meaningful legacy. And, in the end, isn’t that what life is all about? Not just how you live, but what you leave behind?
Have you considered the legacy you want to leave? Tell me about it in the comments below.
