This is the best career event I ever attended and I loved that it was very diverse. Yall inspired me in the midst of my career run. Thank you. Looking forward to the next event.”

“I really love how well organized everything is with your events. I understand the desire for in-person events and I imagine the vibe would be magical to be in one space with all these people... As someone living outside the US though, I really appreciate the online access. It would be nice if you could keep an online aspect even with in-person events, maybe just by making the recordings available to e-ticket holders. Also, that speaker line-up! Wow! So many amazing people in one place, and loving the diversity for sure. Thanks for what you do. :)”
- Ecesu E.
“Thank you so much to the TFD team for providing a financial conference featuring such a wide variety of female perspectives! There was never a dull moment, and I felt that every speaker was incredibly professional, well-prepared, and passionate about their material. I am thoroughly impressed with the quality of this summit, and am excited to incorporate all of the new advice and tools from the summit into my financial life. Bravo and thank you again for everything!”
