Event moderated by Drag Queen Rhedd Rhumm!

We’ll be joined by John Schneider and David Auten, husbands and founders of the Queer Money Podcast featuring 500+ episodes focused on LGBTQIA2S+ personal finance, paying off debt, entrepreneurship, and saving and investing for retirement.

The discussion will also feature a panel highlighting the unique challenges of Vermont’s LGBTQIA2S+ small business community, including:

Ferene Paris (she/her) - Storyteller and Founder of All Heart Inspirations

Sasha Wolfman (she/her) - Founder of Wolfman Esthetics

Bryan Santiago (he/him) - Creative Producer at Looker Lab

Nathaniel Keefe (he/him) - Co-Owner at Hero's Welcome General Store

This is a low-barrier opportunity for members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community and allies to engage in meaningful conversations about the financial challenges and opportunities unique to the queer community in Vermont. We hope it will spark lasting connections within the LGBTQIA2S+ community, particularly among those interested in improving their financial well-being.

Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and share experiences, creating a supportive environment that fosters connection, breaks down barriers to discussing financial experiences, and lights a path forward toward achieving prosperity.
