After5NewYork - Girl Math: Why We Invest The Way We Do

Join a financial professional, educator and co-founder for Girl Math: Why We Invest The Way We Do, an exploration into the psychology behind spending, saving, investing, and the emotional decisions that shape our financial lives.

From viral “girl math” trends and everyday spending habits to long-term investing, financial anxiety, and wealth-building, this discussion unpacks how culture, confidence, emotion, and social conditioning influence the way women think about money. Why do some financial choices feel empowering while others feel intimidating? How do relationships, identity, and risk tolerance shape investment behavior? And what does financial independence actually look like in today’s world?

This isn’t a dry finance lecture. It’s a thoughtful, discussion-driven experience designed to make conversations about money feel accessible, empowering, and relevant to everyday life. Curiosity encouraged.

Don’t miss this chance to connect with your After5Society.
