The Business of You: Applying Executive Expertise to Your Own Life
14
7:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Every day at work - You evaluate risk. You plan for the next five years. You build the strategy. You run the teams.
Now, let's turn that executive lens on your own life. Most of us never pause long enough to ask the questions we ask at work all the time: What am I building toward? Where are my blind spots? What's the plan — not for the company, but for me? What options do I have? How am I aligning to my goals?
This session isn’t a magic wand. But it will kickstart your thinking — with perspective from women who work on the business, in the business, and in the business of life.
Hosted by Wednesday Women and brought to you by Monument Wealth Management, you’ll take part in this candid conversation with women leaders about applying business-level strategic thinking to your own life. No lecture. No pitching. Just honest exchange about some questions you know you should be asking:
- Who is my ‘first team’ - at home? You manage your work team with intention. Are you running your closest relationships the same way?
- Am I getting ‘Life ROI'? It’s less about spreadsheets — and more about direction. What's it all for, and does your plan match the life you want?
- Where am I exposed to risk? Every business has blind spots. So does every life. Insurance, estate, the "I'll deal with it later" pile.
- What can I control in an uncertain market? You can't fix the economy. But you can decide where you allocate your resources.
- What should retirement look like? Many of us aren't interested in doing nothing at all… but we do want to prepare for a fulfilling life after leaving the workforce. So what does the next chapter actually look like?
Come for one focused hour that will kickstart a strategy no one else is going to build for you. Leave thinking differently — and with a room full of women thinking alongside you. 💜

Abi Williams
Chief Commercial Officer @ Abodoo and Founder @ Lead Not Lag
Abi brings more than two decades of revenue leadership across both ends of the spectrum — global organizations like Meta, Oracle, LinkedIn, and Udemy, and scrappy startups where the stakes were personal and the runway was short. Equally comfortable in the boardroom and in the weeds, she's known for pairing strategic vision with hands-on execution, helping founders make the shift from "I am the GTM strategy" to running a revenue engine that doesn't need them in every deal — without cutting corners or burning out the team. Today she works with SaaS scaleups between Series A and C, fixing and building GTM engines, embedding ethical AI and governance across revenue and product, and helping leaders scale smarter, not noisier. Abi brings that build-and-execute mindset to today's conversation.
