Summary
Dasha Kennedy is the creator of the award-winning financial advocacy group: The Broke Black Girl. She is a millennial financial coach whose no-B.S., real-talk coaching and strategies are helping women of color get ahead. By no means is she ashamed of her past financial struggle — in fact, she’s completely embraced it!
After a tough life event made her realize how financially unprepared she was, Dasha began sharing her own journey towards financial success on Facebook. The Broke Black Girl (BBG) Facebook group launched in November 2017, that focuses on the financial struggles facing young women of color, who have often been overlooked in the traditional conversations around personal finance. Within a year, the group has skyrocketed to over 70,000 women.
She has more than a decade of experience working as an accountant and default counselor and is leading women through discussions around different aspects of financial well-being. Where Dasha found gaps in the system, she created a platform to fill them. Providing a safe space that allows her to act as an administrator and financial coach, Dasha is here to support women to take charge of their own finances. You can follow Dasha on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
