NAWBO Chicago's Women Mean Business Conference

If you are the system, the system is broken.

Too many women build successful businesses that look good on paper—but feel exhausting behind the scenes. In this dynamic session led by a Fractional CFO and a Fractional COO, you’ll learn how to design a business that doesn’t just grow, but gives back to you.

We’ll explore the powerful intersection of financial clarity, operational structure, and personal sustainability—because profit without systems leads to burnout, and systems without financial insight limit growth. Most importantly, we’ll center the woman behind the business, addressing how energy, boundaries, and leadership habits directly impact both the bottom line and day-to-day operations.

We’ll break down how to:

-Use financial insight to make confident, informed decisions

-Build systems that support growth without increasing complexity

-Shift from survival mode into intentional, CEO-level leadership

-Create a profitable business that protects your health, time, and money

This session is for women who are ready to stop holding everything together themselves and start running a business that is profitable, organized, and truly supportive.
