Financial educator and entrepreneur Nettie Reeves is launching the Pretty Broke Movement, a national financial empowerment initiative with a mission to help one million women move from financial uncertainty to financial confidence. The movement, inspired by her chapter in the Amazon #1 best-selling book Financial Trendsetters 4, addresses what Reeves calls the hidden financial crisis facing women: the tendency to invest heavily in appearance and care for others while neglecting their own financial future.
Reeves, CEO of In Shape Financial Solutions, argues that many women have inherited financial barriers they did not create. For generations, women were encouraged to prioritize their looks and family responsibilities over building wealth. 'Pretty Broke isn't about criticizing women or how they choose to spend their money,' Reeves said. 'It's about helping women realize they deserve to invest in their financial future with the same confidence they invest in every other part of their lives.'
The movement emphasizes that being financially in shape is as important as being physically in shape. Reeves, a nationally recognized wellness leader who has received the Steve Harvey Community Award and recognition during the Obama Administration, is now applying her expertise to financial literacy. Through the Pretty Broke Movement, she aims to change the narrative that women must choose between looking good and securing their financial future.
To mark the launch, Reeves will host an exclusive, invitation-only Pretty Broke Experience on Saturday, August 22, at 2:00 p.m. Women, community leaders, business professionals, and advocates for financial empowerment are encouraged to contact In Shape Financial Solutions to request an invitation. The event aims to spark conversations about money that can change families' futures.
Reeves' work through In Shape Financial Solutions includes personalized strategies in retirement planning, life insurance, Medicare, long-term care planning, disability insurance, and financial coaching. The firm's approach simplifies complex financial decisions with a focus on trust and compassionate guidance. 'Every conversation about money has the power to change a family's future. Every financially empowered woman has the power to change generations,' Reeves said.
The Pretty Broke Movement is not asking women to stop investing in themselves or their loved ones. Instead, it encourages them to add financial confidence to their list of priorities. By rewriting their financial stories, women can create legacies that endure for generations.
