Thanks to everyone who participated in the Referral Rush for the past month. Every single referral you make strengthens our community and helps us all grow. Even though the rush is over, please continue to refer Skoolers with active groups any chance you get. And if you meet someone in another group who you'd like to get to know more without having to skirt around the topic of what you do or fear getting deleted or banned, invite them over to the CLASSIFIEDS and get to know them in an authentic way! Without further ado, there were three clear winners and no ties! First place (with 14 accepted referrals) and a 72-hour pinned post is @Katya McEwen , the Queen of networking. Second place (with 11 accepted referrals) and a 48-hour pinned post is @Tim Adam , the king of organic traffic. Third place (with 10 accepted referrals) and a 24-hour pinned post is @Des Dreckett the ultimate Skooler (just check out their leaderboards!) Please help me in congratulating them! 🎉 Katya, Tim, and Des, please send me a DM to arrange for your pinned posts. And thanks again to everyone who has helped to spread the word and grow our community. 😊

Our society creates a narrative around money where people are almost afraid to make mistakes. Any mistake you make becomes your identity, instead of just a thing you did. Imagine being in a community where you can say, "I'm struggling with this," and hear, "Me too." That's the kind of space we're cultivating inside the Wealth Warriors Community, where real conversations replace shame, and clarity replaces confusion. Yes, we talk about credit, budgeting, savings, earning more, and mindset! But the real magic is how we encourage one another to grow, reset, and take action that aligns with who we are and what we value. If you're a woman looking for that kind of community, one where there are no metrics but the ones you create for yourself, no yardstick but the values that drive your decisions, please join us

Skipping your morning coffee or avoiding avocado toast (or whatever else the "gurus" tell you to cut) isn't going to make you rich. It's just going to make you miserable and resentful of your money. I learned this the hard way after years of deprivation budgeting. Here's what actually works: Plan for the things you enjoy, then make strategic moves with the rest. 💜Love your daily latte? Budget for it guilt-free. 💜Want brunch with friends? Build it into your plan. 💚Deprivation is not a wealth strategy. Focus on the moves that actually matter: smart investing, cutting wasteful spending (not joyful spending), and increasing your income. The shift? Wealth ISN'T built on sacrifice. It's built on strategy. Stop punishing yourself and start planning intentionally. Enjoy your life AND build your future. If you're done with the deprivation mindset and ready to build real wealth without giving up everything you love, join us in Wealth Warriors Community. We're about strategic wins, not sad sandwiches. What's the one thing you REFUSE to cut from your budget? Drop it below!
