Bonjour bonjour.

This is Mentor Cynthia.

Here I share my real life — marriage, romance, beauty, family, and personal growth. I’m a wife, a Harvard student at 55, a widows policy advocate, founder of a beauty brand, and a woman who believes it’s never too late to evolve.

You’ll find conversations about:
• Keeping love alive in marriage
• Living with grace and intention
• Returning to yourself at any age
• Building a beautiful life — inside and out

I am also the founder of The Cynthia Policy Initiative for Widows, a national advocacy initiative advancing legislation to protect widows’ financial and housing security across the United States.

This channel is for women who still believe in elegance, depth, and doing life well.

Thank you for being here. Let’s live beautifully — together 🌸

Ladies I reiterate, life is about the survival of the mindsets. I trust my current mindset completely, and I trust that the mindset you’ve chosen is already working in your favor too. 👑 YES?

It’s Friday, ladies. Before you pay everyone else, remember to pay YOU. 💰

Years ago, I began practicing a simple financial discipline: pay yourself first.

Take a percentage of what comes into your hands, whether it’s income from a career, a business, or money you manage for your household, and put it aside for your future.

Start with $1 if that’s where you are. Start with 5%. Work toward 10%. The amount matters less than establishing the habit.

Because financial independence doesn’t begin when you become wealthy. It begins when you decide that your future deserves a place in your present-day budget.

That message means even more to me today.

As a woman, entrepreneur, investor, and widow policy advocate, I have seen what can happen when women are not adequately prepared to understand, protect, and make decisions about money.

Financial knowledge is not just about becoming wealthy. It is about having choices. Security. Independence. And power over the direction of your own life.

That is one of the reasons I wrote Money Lies Exposed.

If you’re ready to examine what you’ve been taught about money and start making different financial decisions, get the book.

And ladies, before this Friday is over: PAY YOURSELF FIRST. 💎

What I looked like at 16 when I knew I could have any guy I wanted. 😂 #ActualAndFactual

Yesterday was a wonderful Sunday at our Temple. 🤍

It began with four productive hours with my fellow Board of Directors, planning and sharing ideas for the year ahead, and ended with our annual community barbecue surrounded by family, friends, clergy, and members of our congregation.

I am excited for another year of serving on the Board and contributing to the continued growth of our community.

A beautiful way to close out the summer. ❤️

How did we get from this little boy, when we first moved to Massachusetts, to a high school freshman so quickly? Yesterday I shared Ziv’s first day of high school, and today this memory popped up from August 29, 2018. ❤️

Parents and grandparents… tell me I’m not the only one wondering where the years went. 🥹

Friends, our son Ziv is officially a freshman in high school! ❤️📚 Hubby and I are so excited for him as he continues to excel academically.

For those of you who don’t know, Ziv is also the one behind the camera for our photos and videos you see here. 🎥📸

Do you have children or grandchildren heading back to school this week? 🍎👇🏾

What if the money advice you’ve followed your entire life is the very thing keeping you from building wealth? 💰

Ladies, we were taught to work hard, save our money and “do the right thing.” But were we actually taught how to build, keep and grow money?

That is exactly why I wrote Big Money Lies Exposed! How to Build Wealth Like a Grande Dame.

This book challenges conventional thinking about money and gives you practical strategies for becoming more intentional about what you earn, what you keep, and what you build for the future.

You don’t need to change everything overnight. One new financial decision can change the direction of your money.

Now tell me this:

What is ONE thing you were taught about money growing up that you no longer believe?

And share this with a woman who is serious about building wealth. 👑
