Julie opened up getting her first internship at the University of Chicago which ultimately sparked her passion for working with other women in social justice initiatives. From there, she's worked in countless roles, most notably as CEO of the Women's Initiative for Self-Employment. To highlight her current mission, Julie shares about the gender disparity that still exists in asset management and leadership roles, especially for women of color. She believes that the more women we help find their voice and power, the more we can rebalance the power scales for future generations. Julie's story is a testament to the decades she's dedicated to helping women find opportunities to change their lives. Her vision for the future is clear — she wants every woman to understand the power of her financial decisions and use that power to create systemic change. It's an inspiring legacy she's building for future generations of women in finance and beyond.

Join the 75 Day Human Design Content Challenge Today's episode: This Smart Girl Mastermind alum tells her story of manifesting a fashion career and then her faith-based transformation, mindset, and hypnotherapy business. "I switched careers and it had nothing to do with wanting to do something new. It was one of those seasons of life where life will sit you down to build you up." Kailani began her career in the fashion industry as a Wardrobe Stylist working with a range of celebrities, TV and Film as well as magazine publications. This was her first experience of “manifesting her dreams, co-creating with God and creating her own heaven on earth.” But then, a “situationship” with a boy turned her life upside down –– in the best way! With an intention to get her revenge body and make him jealous, she instead, found herself. She discovered a whole new world of wellness; mental wellness, emotional wellness and spiritual wellness. The question she was faced with was “why am I just learning all of this and how can I get this to more women?” And that was the beginning of everything.

Jesus' life on earth directly reflected the character of God as He walked in love toward both men and women. Although sin cursed and changed things between the two genders, Jesus came to set things right again on the cross. Why did Jesus treat women differently than most? How did the role of women impact Jesus' ministry? In part three of "Yes, Women Can", Pastor Joe looks at how women were used by God in the New Testament, as well as why Jesus treated them with counter-cultural respect.
God uses women to bless their families in every generation - but are there biblical limits to where and who they can lead? Are they meant to have leadership roles over men? What about in the church? In part two of "Yes, Women Can", Pastor Joe looks into the Old Testament to see what God has to say about women not just leading their families, but stepping into roles that changed the course of history.
