I did the corporate rat race for years.
Getting into the office before 8 am, staying there until 10 or 11 pm… doing tax returns for multi-billion dollar oil companies, dreaming of a life where I was in control of my time.
I started working smarter.
What began as a side hustle, quickly became one of my greatest passions. Teaching women how to invest in the stock market and become financially independent is what I was born to do.
Hey there, I’m Janine.
I’m a passionate keynote and TEDx speaker, author, entrepreneur & founder of The Wealth Building Academy Inc. It's my mission to close the wage gap before I leave this earth, and that starts with a strong understanding of finances. Financial literacy is the only way that you will achieve freedom in your life.
Causes I am passionate about
FINANCIAL EQUALITY FOR ALL
ENDING THE PINK TAX
CLOSING OF THE GENDER WAGE GAP
UNIVERSAL CHILDCARE
