What People are Saying …
“What a lovely person she is! And her speech! Amazing. She gave solid, useable info in a sincere, eloquent way – I was personally moved and some of our students were crying! I had no idea that a talk on personal finance could do that!”
-Juliana Brafa, Curriculum Coordinator, Institute for Integrative Nutrition
“Manisha was dynamic, engaging, immediately won and motivated over a crowd of smart but slightly intimidated women. Many of the members of our group still cite what Manisha taught us about taking care of our finances. Manisha demystifies and makes it accessible. We’ll bring her back!”
-Emily Douglas, Women, Action & The Media, NYC
“I had the pleasure of having Manisha come out to New York to give a riveting seminar for my charity, Savvy Ladies, entitled “How to Be Your Own Sugar Mamma.” Her clarity and enthusiasm kept our guests engaged and enthralled during her entire presentation. Manisha’s wonderful talent for blunt honesty helps people really understand what they should be doing with their money. Her energy is unrivaled, she keeps everyone’s interest and allows the audience to participate at any time. I only wish Manisha lived closer to New York so we could have her speak all the time!”
-Stacy Francis CFP®, CDFATM & Founder, Savvy Ladies
“Personal finance guru Manisha Thakor is a blessing for me and my modest non-profit employee pocketbook. Her compassionate but no-nonsense approach to teaching women how to gain and sustain financial strength took me from a place of hopelessness to empowerment when I heard her speak during our Progressive Women’s Voices training, at Omega Institute, at Women, Action, and Media, and at the 2011 REVEAL conference. When Manisha explained her theory that “fighting money harms the natural cycle and the karmic flow” she helped me change limiting beliefs about my finances and enabled me to embrace the power of abundance.”
-Jamia Wilson, VP of Programs, Women’s Media Center
“Inspiring. Approachable. Understandable. Manisha opens herself up to her audience so that you don’t simply hear her remarks, you internalize the information and are energized to take control of your financial future.”
-Kelly Hoey, Past President of 85 Broads
“Being financially savvy is one thing – being able to articulate action steps and connect with an audience is another. We had the good fortune of having financial literacy expert Manisha Thakor speak at our annual “Women & Money Conference” this year. Manisha not only has the smarts to speak intelligently about financial literacy, she engages people and motivates them to take the steps they need to change their financial futures. If you’re looking for someone who can get the message across, you need to hire Manisha Thakor. You will not be disappointed.”
- Bonnie Coffey, President of Bonnie Coffey & Associates, LLC
“Manisha is deeply committed to educating women so they can live their lives from a position of financial strength, and her commitment is evident in her enthusiasm and the practical way she delivers her message. She wants people to “get it”- to have the “aha” light bulb moment. She is undeniably brilliant but what I appreciate most is that she speaks in terms that the novice understands and that an expert can appreciate. For our event, she listened attentively to everything that happened before she spoke and linked it to her talk so she was not only witty and inspiring but also timely and relevant, which I believe is what makes her a great communicator!”
- LaTanya Flix, Executive Director of The Women’s Resource of Greater Houston
