"Fly!" with Steph Wagner In-Person
Join us for a conversation with Steph Wagner, author of Fly! A Woman’s Guide to Financial Freedom and Building a Life You Love – a book about courage, resilience, and how to reclaim power over your life and your money.
In this intimate “fireside chat”, Jenny Emery Davidson, The Community Library's executive director, speaks with Steph about transforming uncertainty into opportunity. After being forced to rebuild her life and career from scratch, Wagner developed a powerful framework for helping women reclaim financial independence, rediscover confidence, and create lives defined by purpose rather than expectation.
Grounded in her deep expertise in women and wealth, Wagner shares her blueprint for navigating transition, overcoming self-doubt, and making bold decisions, with the clarity needed to build a life you love.
