Financial Trendsetters 3

Women in Finance Reclaiming the Full Spectrum of Success

Financial Trendsetters 3 continues the powerful legacy of the Financial Trendsetters series by spotlighting women in financial services who are redefining what success truly means — not just in numbers, but in life.

Led by Nora Gillis, this volume brings together an inspiring group of female financial leaders who are challenging outdated narratives and creating space for a more holistic, human-centered approach to money. In an industry that has long encouraged separation between personal values and professional success, these women share what it looks like to integrate ambition, family, purpose, well-being, and wealth into a more aligned way of living — and advising.

This book features contributions from:
Amber Bentley, Sarah Elia, Tonyia Cleaver, Vicki Beam, April Crews, Karen Santini Clemens, Sara Brandston, Kimberly Garcete, Leah A. West, Amy Frank Goldman, and Jessica Weaver.

Through honest storytelling and lived experience, Financial Trendsetters 3 opens the door to deeper conversations about money as an integrated part of who we are — not something separate or intimidating. It offers both financial professionals and clients a new lens for understanding wealth as a tool for living well, fully, and authentically.

Beyond the pages, Financial Trendsetters 3 is a movement rooted in impact. Proceeds from the book will fund a scholarship for a woman entering a career in finance, helping pave the way for the next generation of leaders to step into the industry with confidence, support, and opportunity.

This is more than a book. It’s a reclaiming of voice, values, and vision — and an invitation to redefine success on our own terms.
