ASK THE EXPERT PURSE POWER: 10 TIPS EVERY WOMAN MUST KNOW ABOUT MONEY AND WEALTH Over the next decade, it’s reported that women will control two thirds of consumer wealth in the United States and be the beneficiaries of the ostentatious transfer of wealth in our country’s history. Evaluations range from $12 to $40 trillion dollars. Will you be in the number and what is your plan to get there? According to Wealth Activator and Strategist, LaShawne Holland (www.LaShawneHolland.com), “Let’s face it, we’re not about to earn our way to wealth. Earned income alone doesn’t lead to wealth for the majority of Americans. Somehow, we think that if we work harder, smarter, longer, we’ll achieve our financial dreams. But our paycheck alone, no matter how big —isn’t the answer. We need to hold a purse of our own. “ Holland says that jobs are not designed to make you wealthy; they’re designed to make the owner of the company wealthy. As a little girl, her grandmother use to say, “God bless the child that’s has her own.” She has developed winning wealth strategies for hundreds over the past 20 years and has witnessed the evidence that there is power in knowing and controlling your OWN numbers. LaShawne shares ten (10) wealth tips to empower your purse: 1. Build A Wealthy Mindset. You will not grow beyond your thinking. If your thinking and money mindset is toxic, your wallet will be too. Consider your thoughts around money. Do they help you grow or keep you stuck? Are they negative or are they abundant? Your thoughts become your realities. Think wealthy thoughts! 2. Get Clear On Your Wealth Vision. Most people stay stuck in their finances because they make their financial problems bigger than the vision of what’s possible for them. It’s inevitable that you need a vision for what you’re going to do in your life and in the life of your family. The critical component that most people lack is—a financial vision. So many people that I talk to on a daily basis don’t have a vision for their life, family, and certainly not finances. They have wants. They have desires. They have wishes, but they don’t have a vision, that includes actionable strategy to get to their desired destination or manifestation.

ASK THE EXPERT 3. Create An Environment For Wealth Attraction. In order for anything to grow successfully and be sustainable, you need the right environment for success. This means spending time with people that desire to grow in the same direction, developing successful financial habits, and position your personal development so you can be the right person to grow your purse power. It’s not good enough to be in the right seat on the bus. You have to be the right person, in the right seat, on the right bus. Your environment matters.

8. Save Money For Purchasing Power, Not Saving Power. With today’s low interest rates (even with the new hike, still a drop in the bucket), it’s almost not worth parking your money in a savings account expecting it to grow exponentially. But I am a believer in saving to be able to position your money in the market to grow. I often advise people who don’t have a huge amount to invest to save and take what you save to purchase investments, so your saving account is really your purchasing power account for investing.

4. Stop Killing The Golden Goose. Don’t spend 100% of your income. Remember the old childhood fable of the Golden Goose? Oftentimes, we kill the financial strength of our ability to grow wealth because we spend 100% of what we make. You have to put money away for your golden years, plan for personal development, have money set aside for your continued education, and have a planned living expenses account. Furthermore, make sure that they are in different vessels, not in the same pot.

9. Have A Wealth Plan. Without a wealth plan, your purse will be powerless. Your man is not a financial plan. You empower your purse when you have a written plan to make, multiply and leverage your money. What are your goals for growth? Are they written where you can see them daily? What steps do you need to do daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly to reach the goal?

5. Believe You Are Worthy Of Wealth. Your beliefs empower your actions. If you don’t believe you are worthy of wealth, don’t worry, wealth will never visit your house. You were created to be brilliant and abundant, but neither will shine through if your belief system is broken in these areas. 6. Compound at an Elevated Rate. You have to invest in a cash cow. A cash cow is something that is going to grow and build wealth for you. It could be a business, real estate, the stock market, insurance products, or precious metals or semi-precious stones or commodities. It’s something that can grow and appreciate in value and be worth more tomorrow than it is today. Learning and understanding the concept and principle of compound interest empowers your purse. Compound interest is interest added to the principal of a deposit or loan so that the added interest also earns interest from that point on. This addition of interest to the principal is called compounding. One of the ways to give your purse power is to compound at a high rate. 7. Eliminate What’s Subtracting and Not Multiplying. In other words, if it’s not multiplying, it’s dying. Find out what are the financial culprits like consumer debt. Consumer debt depletes the power of your purse and limits your purchasing power in the marketplace in things that multiply.

10. Win With A Wealth Coach. It is vitally imperative that if you want to accomplish something, that you find someone who is accomplished in the area that you want to accomplish. What does this look like? It’s really about finding that person who has already broke the barriers and burst through the blind spots of success. It’s about learning from someone that has done what it is that you desire to do. This is amazingly important because in the personal finance space, there are a lot of people who are journalists. There are a lot of people who are talking heads on television that say they are financial experts but haven’t created wealth in their own life. You want to see those who have proven evidence of results in the marketplace. So, finding a mentor is discovering that person who can show you the shortest path to get “there.” Results-driven mentors and coaches have the ability to turn decades of learning into days. They accelerate your path. You have to desire change, choose to change and commit to the changing process. Then, and only then, will your purse burst at the seams with unstoppable financial power.

Entrepreneur & Nonprofit Strategist Dr. Sharon Asonganyi Noted Motivational and Inspirational Speaker, Planner & Nonprofit Coach

The Art of Community A SENSE OF BELONGING


It has been almost 10yrs since I relocated to the DMV from Boston, MA. Within this timeframe, I have worked with three different unique organizations, completed a PhD program, and tremendously expanded my social network. Immediately after I said yes to my first job offer in DC and hung up the phone, I felt a turbulent burst of mixed emotions – excitement, fear, anxiety, joy, and worry. For over 8yrs, I had established strong roots in Boston. Moving meant having to say goodbye to the familiar and saying hello to an unknown. It meant new people, different sites, unfamiliar sounds, and many changes in daily routines. Winter of 2009, I packed up all my belongings in a small Budget truck and drove during a snowstorm in pursuit of new beginnings in DC. I have had quite a few significant life uprooting relocations into new environments in my lifetime. Change is never easy. One thing that helped me in many of those transitions to new cities was seeking out and joining affinity groups. These groups often provide a sense of belonging and offer a safe supportive space to its members as they bond on common interests and a shared background. The affinity groups that I joined centered on three critical elements of my identity – faith, service, and the African diaspora. My current social network blossomed as a result of joining these groups. Additionally, the experiences I shared with amazing people helped me land on my life’s true calling. The thirst for purposeful work was fulfilled through soulful late-night conversations with influential women and inspiring mentors, spending many rewarding hours in service to various social causes, and countless hours venturing into unconventional spaces that allowed me to explore my gifts and passions.

“I felt a turbulent burst of mixed emotions – excitement, fear, anxiety, joy, and worry.” In its simplest structure and form, without bells and whistles, I am called to help others help themselves. What does that look like? Over the years it has taken on many different forms including capturing the lived experiences of first- and secondgeneration African immigrant women on video, informing/shaping policies as a DC Commissioner on African affairs, facilitating focus groups to plan Prince George’s 2035 (future development in Prince George's County), and completing my dissertation research providing fair trade opportunities for women shea butter producers in Northern Ghana.

My purpose is now firmly rooted as a nonprofit coach working with women who have phenomenal ideas for creating a nonprofit organization. I support these women transform their visions into sustainable high impact organizations through strategy and design. I am a trained organizations and systems psychologist, which means that I get really excited about putting infrastructures in place and building solid foundations that allow great ideas for social impact to thrive within organizations. Moreover, my experiences of venturing into new spaces, interfacing with strangers in different environments, and creating sustainable impact, transfer beautifully into nonprofit coaching. Speaking of ‘venturing into new spaces’, a few years ago, I started a successful natural shea butter-based skincare company – Shaju (www.shaju.us) - out of my kitchen. That was scary, intimating, and overwhelming. It was also a test of endurance and true grit in its purest form. All the lessons I learned from starting, failing, resetting, pausing, pivoting while growing Shaju, inspired me to share the wisdom gained over the years to coaching women who feel called to change this world for the better. As I reflect on the last 10yrs, I dared to be brave even with a good amount of fear, anxiety, and uncertainty. I chose to open myself up to new experiences with the expectation of something magical and wonderful happening. The beautiful mystery of my life journey is still unfolding. As you settle into your new life in the DMV, I invite you to stay open to new possibilities of what your life can be. Believe in your vision.

Welcome to the next chapter of your life!

EXCLUSIVE

STEVE'S CUISINE Chef Iris' Story I was inspired to become a chef because my mother was always hosting parties, having big cookouts and serving the community. I guess I'm following in my mom's footsteps. She raised me to have respect for myself to have values and to always love people, love yourself and put God first. At the age of 11yrs. old I started cooking. My mom worked and I had to have food done when she got home from work. The first thing I ever learned cook was my mother’s southern fried chicken for dinner and once I passed the test my mother knew then that I could cook. My mother went home to be with the Lord, but I hold her recipes and recipes that our family passed down through our generations dear to my heart. I use those recipes that were passed down from my grandmother, aunts and my mother daily. With the cooking experience, I went to a two-year course culinary arts school, but graduated in one year at the top of my class. I was so ready to graduate and get into the industry working as a cook. My first job was at INOVA hospital which gave me a chance to meet and help people. Being a dietitian for the Heart Center there were patients who couldn't eat certain things because of illnesses. I also have the awesome opportunity to serve at my church cooking for the homeless shelter at 2nd & D streets and New York Avenue. I named my catering Steve's Cuisine after my husband and Cora's Heavenly Desserts after my mom who liked sweets. It's been a journey, but God has inspired me and guided me through this journey and I know I couldn't have done this without Him, the support of my husband, family who has always been behind me and the blessings of my church leadership. I like to make Cora's Heavenly Desserts, create new desserts and make some of my customers’ favorites such as banana pudding, strawberry shortcake, pecan pie, sweet potato pie, and birthday cakes. There are always challenges with desserts because there are so many people with dietary restrictions. To meet some of those challenges, I have learned to create sugar-free and gluten-free desserts.

EXCLUSIVE When springtime and summertime arrives, I enjoy creating specialty drinks like watermelon Breeze, Jamaica punch and sorrel tea smoothies of all sorts. My favorite dishes are always fresh fruit and vegetables. I like them because of the sweetness and this time of the year you can always find an assortment of healthy fresh fruit with bright fresh colors and sweet to taste. It's just something about seeing the colors on a plate that is so beautifully decorated and full of vitamins our bodies need from each fruit that is necessary for existence. In the summertime, you really don't need to eat a lot of heavy food so it's always better to eat salads and fruits. At Steve's Cuisine, we do a lot of event planning from weddings to parties, to family reunions, BBQ's, baby showers and a whole host of other different events. We enjoy what we are doing to make our clients’ events successful so that they are relaxed and enjoy their event without worrying about cooking and/or serving their guess. We are elated when we receive great reports telling us about their favorite dish and referrals for more events.

The word impression usually signifies a thought or a feeling that we have about a person, place or something someone said or did. Of course, our memories are often challenged and what we remember is unreliable or too vague to grasp the complete picture. Nevertheless, our pursuit continues as we seek more clues. While we might ask others for help, the search does not always end well. We have to rely on what we have left. Certainly, we hope that the impressions we formed are advantageous and reliable. In art, the notion has a different corollary. Today Impressionism refers to a form of artistic production that is admired and appreciated broadly. This level of appreciation has not always been the norm. When the artists who we identify as Impressionists today were creating their special canvases in the mid to late 1800s, they were unfavorably criticized. Critics of that time decried that they were painting impressions and not reality and/or beautiful subjects. Consequently, the descriptive label Impressionism was derogatory in nature but the concept evolved over time. The term caught on and tastes changed. Today people will stand in long lines to see exhibitions by Eduard Manet, Claude Monet, and Auguste Renoir, among many others who are celebrated as Impressionists.

By Terri B.

Culturally Speaking...

Impressions‌ The Arts and Spring


These artists, who passed away many years ago, are amazingly popular and their works sell for a lot of money at art auctions. When viewing these works, some visitors to art museums want to transpose or imagine their own daily existences into the composition of the paintings which are academic and seldom evoke real emotion. As they experimented with paint and immersed themselves in a kind of scientific pursuit propelled by a devotion to color theory, the Impressionists often painted the same subjects over and over again.

Now is a good time to visit these works or make your own, if you are so inclined. In the next few months of spring look for opportunities to experience Impressionism, in art galleries and museums. I've included several exhibitions that might be of interest and/or of inspiration to you. I have also listed examples of music which could be experienced as impressionistic in character.

These experiments took on a range of activities that addressed how an object or place looked when subjected to seasonal changes in the atmosphere-as well as the time of day, etc. Nevertheless, art audiences often find the Impressionists' works visually pleasing, peaceful, simplistic and sometimes lovely.

Enjoy! Terri B.

Of course, there are always a lot of other things to do and see in the DMV.

It has been many decades since the Impressionist artists took their easels and canvasses out of doors to be inspired by nature or utilized the sunlight to create paintings with brilliant, colorful and decisive brush strokes. Somehow, when we are gifted with a brilliant spring day, we too think of the beauty of nature and perhaps we can appreciate what the Impressionists saw and left us to enjoy.
