  • In your years of coaching women, how do you help them with their money EQ?
  • How can we help women be better money managers to achieve financial freedom?

About our guest: Linda Lingo is an authority on women building wealth. Her successful 35-year career in corporate America and her ten years as a Financial Advisor has given her practical experience, radical knowledge, and a deep understanding of the best ways to manage money for the modern-day woman.

Women work with Linda to discover how to become a master at their finances, build their wealth and make an even bigger impact in the world. Linda’s mission is to empower women with smart strategies for a successful, stress-free approach to money.
