7. INVITATION: AUTHORS SUMMIT ONLINE ON THURSDAY

   Have you ever thought about writing a book or sharing your story with the world?
   
   How would you like to meet 12 inspiring authors who have just gone through the process of writing their stories in a co-authored book? How would you like to get behind the scenes of what it takes to write and publish your own book?
   
   I would like to present you with a unique opportunity to be part of our virtual Women Thrive Book launch and Author's Summit on Thursday the 20th of June. We are featuring our 12 inspiring women and additional book mentors and coaches who will be sharing their tips and strategies with those who aspire to share their stories.

   This is our Volume 3 Women Thrive book release and it is about inspiring true stories of women overcoming adversities in life and in the moments of breakdown, finding breakthroughs.
   
   You may not even be thinking of writing your story yet, and may be faced with challenges, struggles or temporary defeats in your journey right now and you are wondering how to get through these moments right now. If you are in this space right now, this summit will help you find the light at the end of the tunnel and inspire you to look beyond adversity and see possibilities.
   
   I know that life is tough and as women, we have unique challenges that we all face. I have personally gone through heartbreak, depression, loss of income, loss of identity and my voice. At the time I thought my life was over, I could not see the wood for the trees outside of the situation I was in. I had no one to support me through the darkest moments in my life, but somehow I found the strength to carry on.
   
   I never thought that I would ever be able to speak about the incident that nearly broke me, but today, the story has been written in the pages of this upcoming book, with the hope that it will inspire someone and help them see the light at the end of the tunnel. My hope is that the stories in our book will inspire you, motivate you and help you find your own meaning in your life's struggles and challenges.
   
   My hope is that you feel empowered to one day share your own story in a book and share your truth. I am on a quest to empower 1 Million worldwide, and it starts with YOU, today. I hope you join us on June 20th for our FREE virtual Women Thrive Author's Summit. Please click the link below to save your spot and share it with another woman who may need this right now.

8. INTERESTING INSIGHTS by Darius Foroux

   Wise: Succeeding despite disadvantages

   You can still succeed in life even if you start late and have no special skills or talents.

   You can also succeed if you think you’re not like the rest or if you never knew what you wanted from life. I’ve been in that situation, too, for almost my entire life.

   But from around the age of 30, I slowly started on a new path that led me to success according to my own definition.

   To me, you succeed when you’re content with your life and work. And there’s no resentment or anger in how you spend your days.

   In my latest article, I share 4 steps I took to succeed according to that definition.

   Give it a read if you feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential.

   Wealthy: Wealth vs Money

   Warren Buffett once said,” Risk comes from not knowing what you’re doing.”

   This is the weakness that charlatans exploit in the ones who don’t know what they are doing.

   In recent years, I’ve received an increasing number of emails from readers who say they fell for certain money schemes.

   The antidote to getting scammed? Financial literacy. These are some lies charlatans say:

   “The stock market will crash!” No one can predict the market. “Here’s how to get guaranteed returns.” If someone offers you an upfront return, run. “Inflation will kill you!” Inflation is actually normal.

   In the financial world, information is your best defense against manipulation and fear-mongering.

   Charlatans don’t like people who have knowledge about investing. They prefer to prey on the ones who don’t.
