I had an amazing time yesterday and I look forward to participating in any and all things that this community has in store, thank you Joseph 🙏🏿

Our monthly Think Outside the Cell Community Meetup brought together growth-minded leaders — and what made it especially meaningful was the presence of two strong women, Cherri B and Marie, who added depth, insight, and powerful energy to the room. We need more of that. We need more justice-impacted women stepping into spaces where money is discussed openly. Where mindset is sharpened. Where ownership replaces limitation. Several of us sat around the table and played Cashflow, the financial literacy game created by Robert Kiyosaki — and let me tell you, it sparked conversations that went far beyond dice and game cards. It sparked: - Conversations about escaping survival mode - Conversations about investing instead of reacting - Conversations about how we build wealth differently This is what the Think Outside the Cell Community is about. Not just talking about money — but experiencing it, understanding it, and reshaping our relationship with it. And here’s what’s next: 📅 Saturday, March 20, 2026🕐 1:00 PM We’ve got lots of special activities planned over the course of the year: a boat ride, picnic, bowling, talent show, and more. All while living the Think Outside the Cell lifestyle. If you’ve been watching from the sidelines, it’s time to step in. If you’re a justice-impacted woman looking for a space to grow, you belong here. This community is rising — and you’re invited to rise with it. Stay tuned for details.

Too many of us wait for January 1st to make big life changes. We cling to the promise of “New Year, New Me” — but let’s be honest: resolutions without action are just hope in disguise. Here’s the truth: your financial future doesn’t care about the calendar. Whether it’s April or October, the right time to invest in yourself — and your money — is always now. So as we enter the final stretch of 2025, ask yourself: Why wait until next year to begin building wealth……when I can start owning a piece of it today? The fourth quarter isn’t just for corporations. It’s your Q4 too. And you can use it to shift from consumer to investor — from surviving to building. 🧠 Mindset Shift: From Waiting to Building If you’ve been impacted by the criminal justice system, chances are you’ve spent years surviving — playing catch-up, managing debt, repairing credit, stretching every dollar. Now it’s time to learn how to make your money work for you. Investing isn’t just for the rich. Investing isn’t only for “later.” Investing is how you get to wealth — not what you do once you’re already wealthy. Here’s the mindset:✅ You don’t need a lot of money to start. ✅ You don’t need to know everything. ✅ You just need to take the first step. 🛠️ 4 Steps to Start Investing This Quarter (Before the Year Ends) 1. Get Clear on Your Why Ask yourself: What am I investing for? - Freedom? - A home? - Retirement? - Your kids’ future? Write it down. Wealth needs a reason to grow. 2. Open a Brokerage Account If you don’t already have one, open an account on a beginner-friendly platform like: - Fidelity - Charles Schwab - Robinhood (more for learning, less for long-term investing) - Public or SoFi (good for those new to investing)
