Teens and 20s
Do you know someone between the ages of 16 to 24 years old who is interested in Entrepreneurship, Financial Competency, Wealth Creation, or improving their Quality of Life?
What is it?
Edna created this program for them. After spending the last 18 years in the dealing with the hurdles that life sent Edna’s way, she knows that it is imperative to equip the next generation with resources and guidance to prepare them for the setbacks of entrepreneurship, financial competency, climbing the corporate ladder, and even handling the challenges of “day to day” life. Most importantly, they need a safe space to bring up their hidden concerns, fears, and even doubts when it comes to the world they are in and the dilemmas facing today’s society without feeling judged or looked down upon.
Results from the study The Class of 2030 and Life-Ready Learning – conducted in collaboration with Microsoft and McKinsey & Company’s Education Practice—reveal that the future of learning will be profoundly social, student-centric, personalized, and supported by technology. Key findings outline the knowledge and experiences students will need to be “life-ready” and not simply “work-ready.” By the time today’s kindergartners enter the workforce, activities will substantially change across most occupations and will increasingly require the application of expertise and creative problem solving, as well as collaboration, management, and the development of people.

- Rich people buy luxuries last, while poor and middle class tends to buy luxuries first.
- The rich buy assets. The poor only have expenses. The middle class buy liabilities they think are assets.

Estherpreneur Program: There are two programs available. The Foundation aims to help young women develop their entrepreneurial skills. The students are given the tools they need in order to succeed in today’s economy and face the challenges that they will inevitably have to face when starting their own business and career. This phase was created to provide mentoring and coaching to these young ladies to help them overcome set-backs, develop a growth mindset, and learn financial literacy. Money Experience offers an effective and accessible financial literacy platform that includes a web-based software application that uses a unique blend of curriculum, story, and software simulation to teach students and young professionals about the relationship with money and quality of life. Students under 18 years old must have Parents Consent.
Program 1: The Foundation (Young Women Only)
This package includes 8 Virtual Sessions and access to their Coach for questions and advice (limited email and phone support between sessions). Up to 12 spots per Coach.
What to Expect?
After the Estherpreneur applies online, a committee will review her profile. The student will receive a notice that she has been accepted to the program and will be sent a Parent Consent Form if they are under 18 and an Invoice for the program. Once fee is paid, Estherpreneur will receive a questionnaire so their Coach can get to know her a little better and can tailor her coaching session to HER.
The purpose of this phase is to get to know the students on a personal level and provide clarity on who they are, where they are now, where they want to go, and how to get there. Introduction to Entrepreneurship, Finance, and Personal Development.
Program 2: Money Experience (Students and Young Professionals)
Nearly 75% of high school and college students are ill-equipped to make critical financial decisions.
They will have access to Money Experience, offered as part of Edna’s Estherpreneur Program which offers an effective and accessible financial literacy platform that includes a web-based software application that uses a unique blend of curriculum, story, and software simulation to teach high school, college-aged students, and young professionals about the relationship with money and quality of life.
Taking into consideration choices around big topics like college, home loans, cars, marriage, kids, health expenses, and retirement, the simulator measures not only financial outcomes, but also the impact those outcomes may have on your quality of life. Students go at their own pace or can have interactive session with actual instructor for additional charge. Each student will have their own log in for one full year to ensure that they have a clear financial plan and their goals are attainable. ** In person sessions are limited to 30 students for effective teaching. **
Financial wellness cannot be evaluated with a one-size-fits all attitude. It’s not just about money — it’s about making money work for you based on what you deem important in life. This program was developed by financial experts, business managers, and professional educators and based on real historical costs, incomes, interest rates, and financial metrics in the United States.
