Calm Money Convos

Real conversations about money and business confidence

Calm Money Convos is an audio summit for women building financial confidence, whether that means steadier personal finances or a stronger income. Instead of written contributions, this summit is a series of real, one on one recorded conversations. No scripts, no fear based urgency, no manufactured hype. Just honest experience and practical takeaways.

I'm gathering a small group of speakers for the inaugural summit and would love to consider your voice, whichever track fits your expertise.

The inaugural summit

The year is heading into its final stretch

Are you where you thought you'd be, personally and in business? What needs adjusting before it closes? This summit is reflective but practical, honest check-ins, gentle course corrections, and small wins, across personal finances and business income alike.

Three tracks, one summit

Find your track

Speakers apply to whichever track matches their expertise. Conversations run together as one summit, not separate events.

Grow it

Your host

Robyn Weekes

RW

Hi, I'm Robyn. I started out contributing to other people's bundles and summits, and somewhere along the way realized I liked running the show more than showing up for someone else's. Turns out hosting scratches the project manager itch, and if you know a first daughter, you know the bossy gene runs deep. I care about proof over fabrication, real numbers, real lessons, no manufactured urgency.

If this is your first time being interviewed, don't worry. I'll walk you through everything ahead of time so it feels like a real conversation, not a performance.
