Reparations is not just a political conversation. It’s a financial wellness conversation.
What does it mean to receive money, generational, institutional, or otherwise, without the mindset and tools to maximize it? 🤔
History has shown us that access to wealth alone isn’t enough. How we think, feel, and move with money determines whether it builds something lasting or slips through our hands.
That’s why this review from Kristi Williams (), Chair of the City of Tulsa’s Beyond Apology Reparations Commission, founder of Black History Saturdays, and proud member of , lands so deeply as we close this month.
Kristi’s story brings the historical weight.
The “Spiritual Wealth, Financial Health” workshop held inside the walls of the historic Vernon AME Church brought the practical tools. Together, they represent exactly what whole-community financial healing looks like, from reckoning to readiness.
Whether the money comes from reparations, a raise, an inheritance, or a new revenue stream…you deserve to be ready for it.
For faith-based and secular organizations ready to bring that readiness to your people — “Spiritual Wealth, Financial Health” and “Money Mindset & Money Moves” both travel to you.

Most financial workshops leave you inspired but unsure of how to sustain what to do next.
This one was built to change that.
Grateful for this review from Milton Dean III — a local educator who attended the “Spiritual Wealth, Financial Health” workshop at the historic Vernon AME Church and walked away with more than motivation.
When someone whose daily work is pouring into the next generation takes time to reflect on their own financial wellness journey, that means something.
The workshop is designed so that faith, money story, and practical tools live in the same room together — because healing your relationship with money and moving with money aren’t two separate conversations.
For faith-based and secular organizations looking to bring culturally grounded financial wellness to your people — “Spiritual Wealth, Financial Health” and “Money Mindset & Money Moves” both travel to you.

We’re closing out Black History Month with the voices of the people who showed up for the deep work of financial healing 🙌🏾 This is 1 of 3.
Most financial workshops teach you WHAT to do with money.
All of our workshops start with HOW you feel about it.
Grateful for this review of the “Spiritual Wealth, Financial Health” workshop, which explored the relationship between your faith, your money story, and the generational patterns that quietly shape your financial decisions…things a spreadsheet alone can’t fix. 💡
This workshop happened inside the historic Vernon AME Church, a place that itself is a living lesson in Black wealth, destruction, and resilience. Thank you to Marvina L. For inviting us & sharing your experience of the workshop.
For organizations, faith-based & secular, looking to bring culturally grounded financial wellness to transform your people — our “Money Mindset & Money Moves” and “Spiritual Wealth, Financial Health” workshop travels to you.
