Attendance fee: free
CFA Society Oklahoma is hosting this Collaborative WIM Initiative event, themed “Women, money and power”. This discussion concentrates on the psychological relationships that we all have with money, and why it is so important to come to terms with, and take responsibility for, not just our finances but also our psychological relationship to our finances and money. Our own histories and feelings about money have a huge impact on how we think about using it and sharing it. This is going to be a discussion to help you think a bit about your own relationships with money- to try and make the underlying thoughts and feelings a bit more conscious.
